I had seen Zero Ted play when Mark Craney was on drums. He was one of the most skillful players I had ever seen. I couldn�t get over his unique style. He was a true master. So, imagine my surprise when I was asked to join the band after Mark went on to other things. I was very excited to join this remarkable band. I wasn�t a member of Zero Ted for a long time. My tenure was cut short by a serious illness in my family. I returned to Waseca, MN (where I was raised) and took jobs at various companies around town. When I figured out that working for a living wasn�t making it, I went to college. I attended Mankato State University and went on to the University of Minnesota Law School. I graduated in 1983 from law school and opened my own practice in Waseca. Later, in 1994, I joined Patton, Hoversten & Berg, P.A., where I practice today. I practiced criminal law for about half of my career, where I represented people like Members of Zero Ted. I now do personal injury where I represent individuals who have been injured by people like Members of Zero Ted. I haven�t played drums since about 1974, so the upcoming performance in Sioux Falls on 4/18/15 will be a challenge. Well, I better get back to practicing the drums...
