November 2 - Now that the Free Times is a memory, the links I had to the 2000 article is no longer active. The article was written shortly after I left WNCX. I have taken a cashed page of the article and uploaded it. It was published in the Free Times August 9, 2000.

October 29 - As of today, I will no longer be doing a show on WRUW. Click Here for a statement.

October 24 - Created a new page, featuring MP3 audio samples from various G4orce live recordings. Shows included are Pete Way, Overlorde, Damien Thorne, Breaker, etc.

October 22 - Added Aftershok concert photos, from the show at the Revolution on October 12.

October 20 - Added concert photos from the weekend's Wish You Were Here shows, October 18 at the Odeon in Cleveland and October 19, at Promowest Pavilion in Columbus. Click Here to view them.

October 18 - The Pete Way Revolution show is finally mixed, mastered, and completed! After an all night mastering session, which ended last night at 5am, the disc is finally completed! I will deliver it to Pete this weekend. Click Here to hear some MP3 clips from the show. Thanks to Don Depew, at 609 Recording, for allowing us to invade his studio last weekend and for his extreme talents behind the mixing desk. If only Princess wouldn't have done her business under the couch!! DOH! A tip of the hat and props galore to Pete Way, Frank Powers, Rashida Bridges, Walt James, Scott Phillips, and especially Princess, for the constipated trip down I-71. Cheers!

I will premier a song from the show on my radio program, Metalmorphosis, tomorrow morning from 9-11 on WRUW 91.1 fm, Cleveland. Stream the show anytime by clicking on the link above.

October 14 - I spent the weekend at 609 Recording, with Pete Way, mixing the show I recorded last weekend. What a pleasure it has been to work with Pete. It was, without a doubt, an experience I will never forget. 609's Don Depew and I will finish mixing the last few songs this week and I will master the recording. Look for the full length live release to be out sometime in the future! I just wish we could get Pete's dog Princess into the Betty Ford clinic...

October 11 - The mixing of the two live tracks for the next Seven Witches release, Passage To The Other Side, will be completed soon and sent off to Jack Frost for mastering. I am very proud of this recording. It is one of G4orce's best. Jack plans on using my live recording of "Camelot" as a bonus for the domestic release and possibly another song for the Japanese version. Read the statement from the official Seven Witches Website.

October 9 - Chick Here to stream a TV commercial I recorded for a cable company in Indiana. I am a talking TV! You will need Windows Media Player to stream the clip.

October 8 - What a great weekend! I recorded Pete Way and Breaker at the Revolution on Friday, October 4, took Pete to Alice Cooper on Saturday, and drove him back to Columbus on Sunday! Pete will be joining me at Don Depew's 609 Recording, over the next several weeks, as the three of us mix and produce a full length live recording!!! What a rush it is to work with such a legend!
Audio from the WRUW and WJCU interview has been posted.

October 1 - The two-hour Pete Way/UFO special I have planned for my WRUW show will also run on WJCU 88.7FM. Hear the special on WRUW 91.1FM, from 9-11am, Friday, October 4, and again the same day, on WJCU, from 6:30-8:30pm. Thanks to Bill Peters for suggesting the encore broadcast.

September 30 - I just posted photos from two Pete Way gigs, in Wapokeneta and Coshocton, Ohio.
Check out the photos by clicking here. I logged 700 miles Friday and Saturday (Sept 28 & 29) and had a great time shooting the shows and hanging out with Pete. Seeing such a legend in small intimate venues was a fantastic experience! If you are anywhere near Cleveland, DON'T MISS THE OCTOBER 4th SHOW AT THE REVOLUTION! G4orce will be recording the show for a possible live release. Rumor has it a certain UFO guitarist might fly in for the show!!

September 19 - In response to many email requests by fans, I must say that I cannot (at this time) post the Seven Witches song, "Camelot" that I recorded at the Classic Metalfest II. Since the official announcement was made by Jack Frost, saying he will use a live track from the show as a bonus track on the next Seven Witches CD, I have had many requests to post the song on this website. I hope to do an interview with Jack Frost and debut the track on my WRUW radio show, Metalmorphosis, sometime in the next few months. "Camelot" was engineered and recorded by G4orce, mixed by Dan Page at DPR Studios in Stow, OH, and produced by Dan Page and myself. Dan really outdid himself mixing this one!!! Keep checking here - I post more info as soon as it becomes available.

Thanks to the following sites for helping me to promote the UFO radio special I have planned for October 4. See the pics above and read the Sept. 6 news entry for all the Pete Way radio show info. Also, check out these sites:
1) LET IT ROCK 2)PATRIK's MUSIC PAGES 3) UFO/MSG SITE 4)Dave Wood's UFO Page 5)Strangers In The Night

Click here to stream the :60 WRUW promo for the UFO show and look for audio from the interview to be posted on this site in the next week. You will need Real Audio to stream the promo.

September 15 - New photo pages finished. Hundreds of photos added. Also added a "most viewed" photo page, with about 50 of my most viewed concert photos.

September 13 - Jack Frost announces to Brave Words And Bloody Knuckles that he will be using a G4orce live recording as a bonus track on the next Seven Witches Studio release, Passage To The Other Side.
Click Here to read the announcement from the Seven Witches Website.

September 10 - The deal is done!! It is with great pride that I announce that SEVEN WITCHES will be using a G4orce recording on their next studio release!! Recorded July 13, 2002 at the Classic Metalfest II, this recording captured vocalist James Rivera's first performance with the band. One song from the show will be included as a bonus track on the next SEVEN WITCHES CD, which will feature Rivera and the new addition on bass, the one-and-only Joey Vera. Soon G4orce Recordings will be heard world-wide!

September 6 - Legendary UFO bassist Pete Way visits G4orce Studios! Is was absolutely amazing to have such a legendary bassist right here in my basement! We recorded an interview, which will air on WRUW Friday, October 4, the same day Pete comes to Parma for a show at the Revolution. After several shots of Absolut, Pete plugged in my acoustic guitar and performed!! Be sure to listen to the two-hour Pete Way/UFO special on Metalmorphosis October 4. By the way, G4orce will be recording the Revolution show for a possible live release and I have been hired to photograph another show on the tour. Interview excerpts from my conversation with Pete Way will be available on the site in the next week or so, once the radio special is finished.

Seotember 6 - First WRUW show at the new time happened today. The show is now on Friday mornings from 9-11. I was surprised how many calls I received and how many commercial radio listeners are converting to college radio. I get a lot of calls from former WNCX listeners, as well as a ton of old friends from the WUJC show, which ran from 1986-1994 and again during the summer of 2000. It is extremely satisfying to see that people enjoy the show. It is also great to be back doing a metal show. Too bad there are some douchebags at WRUW, who think I am "too polished" for the station. Leave me alone! It's not my fault you suck!

September 1 - Metalmorphosis wil be moving to a new time on WRUW 91.1FM, Friday mornings from 9-11 am. The new time starts this Friday, 9/6/02.

August 27 - The company that had hosted my guestbook since 1997, beseen.com, went offline with no warning recently. A message on their site says they could no longer afford to provide the service. I lost all guestbook entries going back to the very beginning of this site, in early 1997. They could of at least gaven subscribers a week's notice to copy the entires. What assholes. I am not sure if I will start another guestbook unless I can host it myself. Many funny guestbook entries were lost.

August 25 - Welcome to the new news page! Put on your dancin' shoes and tell us "how's the news?" OK, I will. I was tired of crowding up the main page with lines and lines of news, so I created this page. News on the radio show, recording sessions, and photography gigs will be posted here. I am sure this page will become kind of a soapbox at times, given my often outspoken views of some things and some people. Hope you can handle it. If you can't, leave now.
