Orchestra pit for pre-Broadway run of "Little Women: the Musical " 2003. There is also a set of orchestra chimes and a tam-tam next to the high notes of the marimba.

Performing with the Gregg Gelb Swing Band at the Carolina Theater, Durham, NC, 1992.

In the orchestra "pit" (it's actually the basement of the theater where everything was miked, mixed with the onstage vocals, and sent to the theater via loudspeakers) for the North Carolina Theater's production of Jesus Christ Superstar (1990's).

Some exotic percussion instruments at a store in Seoul, Korea I visited in 1992 while working as a dance accompanist for ADF/Seoul. I couldn't find a big enough suitcase to bring them all back.

My wife and me at the Eiffel Tower in 2004.

Playing pots and pans in the kitchen of Halby's Delicatessan, 1990.
