Music
Dave has played guitar for 30+ years. He divides his time roughly equally between acoustic and electric guitar. He also writes music, sings, and plays drums and other instruments, all rather less well than he plays guitar. Since 2008, he has been recording on a regular basis, and has produced numerous albums. He is active in two bands, and has also played in numerous other bands and projects. His music has appeared on The FuMP, and his bands appear regularly at science fiction conventions throughout the midwest.
