I WAS IN SCHOOL AND WAS ASKED TO SING IN THE CHURCH . HAD NO IDEA I COULD EVER TOUCH PEOPLE THROUGH SONG . I  latter wanted to do something, no other man thought of, to sing Elvis  songs. when Elvis Presley died in 1977, I wanted to do pay my last respects to him  by an  Elvis a tribute.  Even though I had trouble keeping a band for 4 years I got another chance to do it in Vegas. I now has been in the biz now for over 25 years. I  want to set the record straight by singing the songs the right way.  not just looking like the king, but  (SINGING) .  having wonderful time with ELVIS FANS  fans all over the world .I want to be able able to get the Elvis name back, to what it was and with respect .as i can say, i have done some foolish things before and always seem to say the wrong thing to the right people. but, we all make mistakes ,as this is a learning world to get to know how to communicate with others and let them know your feelings. i now like to sing Elvis movie songs as this is something that really hasn't been explored before .i don't mean to cause anyone any trouble with anything ,for i am just a singer that wants to be heard in music .sure, there will be some that just don't like me. but ,i always had it hard right from the start. wasn't that great growing up when your babysitter tells me she's gonna call the boogie man and take me away or having me put in a closet or basement alone in the dark until mom came to pick me up. as i stated at the top of this wasn't until i was in school, christen school, i had 5 kids from this school try to gang up on me to stab me with a knife. the school tried to cover this up. wasn't till i was out of school i herd my 5 grade teacher molested some 5 grader girl in his class . the school also covered this up. yes i broke out  with pimples in my Christian school and was teased badly for this . when i went to junior high maybe god said to the devil lay off randy.  i made some good friends as i needed to get along with the girls. i did a show singing Elvis live on stage .didn't go well, but, still the girls liked me for some reason. i didn't understand . my best friend told me i could of got any girl to be with .like most people i fell off the track. i did a play as a sophomore in high school as (bye bye birdie ) i was birdie. you think being the star of the show you get more lines ? nope lol. i worked at an early age at a chicken place and the first money i made i got a electric guitar. did a show as a senior that went off vary well . and from there, i just did bars until i got a band and having a band and running it for 4 years isn't easy , you get to meet allot of players .i always tell people ,i had (Steve miller) in my band. well he wasn't a well known singer like him. but, he sure had his name and this cat took his guitar everywhere he went. if he was walking he have his guitar with him .he was so great .but, when you get girls in the band things all change to the worse. i already had drugs and booze in it.  now this girl was sweet and nice and sang great. but, they wanted control. if they weighted a little longer, i would of gave them there wish.  that was to have this one guy out of the band . i didn't feel they knew all the stuff so i said good bye to them and i really hated to do that .i was there in the star plaza in the jolly good lounge. we had the Elvis act then. it went off vary well. but, when we came back they remembered that we did this . we were a 5 piece band back then.  when this guy who ran the Elvis tribute show ( a birthday show) at first he was thinking of having me in it. but, we were not the same band we at that time. were a 3 piece band and me playing bass and there wasn't a way i could of gave him a good show . when i turned my back to sing ,i looked back and he was gone and that was the first year he put on this birthday tribute to Elvis .i had my full band. i could of gave him a good sounding show. but ,we were doing beach boy songs as that IS  what made my band strong. the harmony, as you can see, i always had to struggle all my life. got nothing easy. but, i always say winning is easy ,you have to know how to lose to even think of winning at all. people ask me does it pay off well money wise, nope. but i do get to see some of the world in which i would never had done before .
