Man...this is pretty cool. Thanks for all welcome messages! This team is awesome and I'm really excited to be part of it...and obviously the community surrounding the team is awesome as well!
To hit a few points mentioned in this thread:
-I'm not French (not that there's anything wrong with that)
-I was not a DIS follower prior to this but I have been a huge Disney fan my whole life..so that helps.
-Jenn, I <3 you too!
-This is the coolest smiley ever
Other facts you may find interesting:
-I'm a big Green Bay Packers fan, so I'm pretty happy right now.
-I'm a drummer but my first instrument was guitar...I just prefer to be able to sit down for the entire show..
-I have two brothers. One works with the Navy (we call him the smart one) and the other is the guitarist in my band megaphone. He's also been a professional lighting director and has toured with bands like Train, Tonic, The Verve Pipe, and he was touring guitarist for Seven Mary Three (including a six-week tour opening for Aerosmith).
-My band opened for AC/DC at the Amway Arena here in Orlando. That is the coolest thing I've ever done in my life (up to this point).
-I'm also a part-time stage hand at Hard Rock Live in Orlando so I've been able to work some pretty awesome shows. How often do you get to shine a spotlight on Tom Jones?!
That's all I can come up with for now. Once again, thanks for the warm welcome and I'm sure I'll see you around!
