Joe's Story
Life
update? have a seat and lets talk.
I dropped out our Junior year. I eventually got my GED.
I joined the NAVY and was discharged a year later.
Drank and Drugged into oblivion for a long time. Been Clean since 02/16/1996.
Was married in '93 to Ann Marie Hawthorne for 11 months. Didnt work out (I hope she is doing good I got some amends to make to her anyone know how to reach her?).
I played in a punk rock band with Jon Winstead (still my best friend since 1977!!!!). Toured the Country and put out 2 records and some EPs and songs on compilations butwe never made money at it but we had a lot of fun.
I even played in Ill Repute for a while (that was a dream come true) and Henry Knowles from Agression became one of my close friends before he passed away in '03.
Recorded and p...Expand for more
roduced a few local bands. In fact I am trying to make a Record label right now. Still heavily involved in local music here in Ventura County. I even see Bruce G at shows every now and then.
I got into IT Support early on and that is what I do for a living. It pays great and I am happy doing it. Even moved to Dallas (where I own a home still) for a while with a company.
Life is great these days...cant really complain.
