Concert Photography & More...

I'm originally from New  York, and went to college  at Brown University and grad school at Cornell  University. As you'll  see from this web site, my passion in life is  LIVE MUSIC.  I've been  taping and collecting live music recordings since  1976, and the  majority of the content of this web site is related to  this "hobby".  While I was in grad school, I taught myself how to program personal   computers by attempting to catalog my cassette collection. The database   that I started building back then has been adapted and transformed  into  the "Analog Tape" section that you see before you. In fact,  several of  the entries in my database go all the way back to the dBase  II database  that I built back in 1982!  Over the years from 1982  through 1997, I  worked as a computer software developer for Humana,  Seisdata Services,  BFI, Advantage Management Systems, and finally  became my own boss from  1997-2002 as President of Rapid Business  Solutions, a small  Houston-based custom software & application  development company.  Since June 2003, I've been working for SCI  Fidelity Records, the record  company for the String Cheese Incident.  I  am the executive producer and  project manager of the "On The Road"  series of live concert recordings.   I spent 15 months living in Boulder  working full-time for  SCI-Fidelity, but now I back home in Houston  working for SCI-Fi on an  as-needed basis.
