    Claim to fame?....

    Played with The Temptations, Ingrid Jensen, Harry Connick Jr., Marvin Stamm, and a bunch of other folks. But who ever looks for the trumpet player?! lol. "Chics dig high notes, dude!"

    Won a .22lr national shooting competition waaaaay back in middle school.

    Won state competitions in high school for music related stuff so I was in the newspaper quite a bit.

    Broke every bone in my body in a car wreck junior year of high school. That was in the paper too. (And I still graduated on time!)

    And biggest claim to fame is my last name! Direct relation... Well, if you were in TX you'd understand. HAHA.

    Other than those... I'm just a regular joe who trys to stay out of the spot light.

    I had the privilege to play the drums for Shania Twain for a song at the Pepsi center back in 2003.

    I study with Allison Krauss's and Maynard Ferguson's (former, he died) drummer.

    I shot competitive sporting clays in high school, getting as high as second at the state meet.

    Recordings I've made have been broadcast world wide on radio, and locally on stations like 106.7.

    So far if we are going by names which I have seen mentioned. I would say my claim is being a descendant of Juan de Ulibarri or his brother Antonio, not realy sure who.


    I haven't had my chance to shine yet or had my 15 minutes. lol
