In case you are wondering, "ST" is derived from a very old (and no longer used) nickname.

A good 30 and some years ago, I started performing and found my place as an ensemble player. Shunning the limelight, I would sing through my instrument in harmony to complement the lead voices. In those days I played acoustic guitar. Although I still do, these days you find me wearing an electric when playing live.

Musically, I am most happy working in a responsive-creative role. I tend not to generate new from an empty space, but find my place in response to others, working with what's happening in the moment. This translates into an odd (and I hope, atypical) interpretation of the lead guitar player.

More simply, I found my place in the shadows with the priority on the tunes.

ST is the short form of that old nick-name I no longer use... Shadow Toonz

So call me ST. All my musical friends online do.

Update: January 2007

These days I'm just as likely to be playing Acoustic Guitar as Electric, and I'm doing a lot more singing. There has been a lot less time for blog posts because I have directed a lot of that energy into building The Bose® L1™ Wiki
