Kev, 43...was known on musictoyz as Bb...played in a Santa Cruz, CA band called Oka Road between 1999 and 2005.
I left a high paying engineering management job in 2005 and moved back east (NH, where I was born), threw away my cellphone (and most of my non-music technology), did a bit of traveling and went back to school to get my Masters degree in....teaching secondary mathematics...I'm currently teaching in rural NH.
I join these boards early (harmony central then gaspedal/toyz) and leave when folks get...ugly.
I'm not married but spoken for...we have a 15 week old boy named Finn (named after Fionn mac Cumhaill...mythical Irish warrior). Creating Finn is and will be the greatest thing I will ever do in this life.
The only Bjfe pedal I have left is the pink purple fuzz. I had the LGW, Blue overdrive thang, DRD, and honey bee at one time. I only regret letting the honey bee go...then again, I'm more than happy (overjoyed even) to pick one up from Bjorn and Donner's bearfoot line...when I have the spare funds (i.e. sell some of my other crap).
I seek out local jams (mostly acoustic stuff these days), noodle in my living room, and I'm trying to become Jerry Douglas's better looking twin.
I'm fairly tolerant except for those who correct spelling and pronunciation. Coming from new england, living in Chicago, Ohio, California, NH, and Boston...and spending too much time in Austin, TX and Arizona. I've concluded North Americans should NOT advise a single soul on pronunciation.
I'm also known to make fun of other teachers and thoroughly enjoy torturing adolescents with mathematics.
Cheers,
Kev
