Slight return: Once had a career playing the drums. Got tired of people assuming that he was a drooling, cretinous, ham-fisted, knuckleheaded half-wit who lived only to bash on things. Learned how to engineer recordings. Learned how to make music with computers. Discovered that he had a knack for composing and arranging music. Wrote some music for big corporations.

Got paid. Bought a bunch of gear and built studio.

Now sits around gear filled studio wondering why he doesn't still play the drums.
