Faron's Story
Life
I left Samuell in 1974,I did some work in various odd jobs,before becoming an auto mechanic.I worked at a Volkswagon shop for a few years.Then drove a truck for a few more.And then returned to mechanic work.I've worked at Southern Methodist University,as an equipment mechanic for the last 22 years.I've been writing and recording music in my spare time since 85 or 86,except for some live recordings and some songs I wrote around 79,and have recorded close to 30 albums worth of music (300+) songs.I played in a band in the late 70's called "THE Blue Sky Blues Band".Since then I've been recording and doing a few private and not so private jams with friends.(See my pics).I'm in the process of setting up a My Space site to promote some of my recordings,and I am running into technical difficulties trying to load music to their ...Expand for more
players.I'm also trying to set up my own website and store (sales).I work with and have jammed and did some nonprofit gigs with a few members of KILJOY.I played the violin when I was in Jr. High,and recently started playing again after 30 odd years.And have made a few recordings with my fiddle. I love to play video games and I have recently began feeding wildbirds in my yard, (check out the parrots!)I work with a large number of alumni from Samuell and "The Grove".When I was in high school I was a bit of a loner,and I'm still known as a "Lone Wolf".Some people know me as "Sebastian",my family and a small circle of friends know me as "Bo",at work they know me as "Rooster".I picked up that nickname on the job and it stuck.I like peaceful ,uncomplicated living,I hate insomnia,and worry.E-mail me and more than likely I'll answer.
