2000's

2000 - I decided to make Cross Eyed Clyde my project name. I was going to record my own music and do it myself. Cross Eyed Clyde was to be my flag. I was unemployed during the year of 2000. Music was on the back burner behind making ends meet. Needless to say, little to no work got done.

2001 - I was unemployed for about half of this year. There was talk from Patrick about doing some bass work for his Wreckage CD but it never materialized. Wreckage did get released, but it wasn't to Patrick's liking as it was a rushed project.

2003 - January. We're at church. After the worship service the pastor's wife stood up and started praying. She said somebody was in pain and that God was going to take away that pain. They were going to be healed. Right then both of my wrists popped. It felt like they were expanding from the inside. I went home from that service and played my acoustic guitar off and on all day. It was the first time I've played with numb free fingers in many years. The Carpal Tunnel Syndrome that I had acquired was gone. Praise God!

2005 - I get to record some bass for Nathan Creek again. But this time I get to record vocals as well. I didn't do any singing, though I did contribute a whisper. The vocals were handled by Darren Lyda of Judah/Cross Eyed Clyde and my lovely wife Tori Close. They both did a great job. The two tracks were Spent and The Tragedy Remains. Tragedy even got some airplay on a couple of radio Stations.

2006 - I am working on laying down bass for a new Nathan Creek song called The Glimmer. Later this year Patrick and I are going to be working on a hard rock/metal project called Return from Exile. Keep your ears peeled.
October - Started attending Kalispell Christian Center and joined the worship team for the 9am service.

2007 - I had the privilege to work with Sanctyfied on their new CD Flying High!. The Glimmer hits #15 on the tSr Charts. Did a collaboration with some fellow ShoutLifers on a song called God Time.
