Happy Father’s Day! Really missing my Dad today

Happy Father’s Day! Really missing my Dad today but also feeling extremely blessed and grateful to be a Dad to these girls. #grateful #fathersday

I don't normally do long posts but here we go! I'm

I don't normally do long posts but here we go! I'm feeling grateful to have had so much support from my family as a child. My music journey has been an amazing ride and experience that I am truly grateful for. I started playing sax the summer before 4th grade and my grandfather (I called him Pa) was my unofficial first private lessons teacher. Pa, being a stubborn Irish man and me, being a stubborn half Irish and fiery half Italian grandson, butted heads in soooo many private sax lessons...but Pa was always ready and willing to continue to teach and to give his 8 year old grandson grace and patience. We would break out into duets for the family for special occasions and I vividly remember being so excited to play these songs with him and for our family.
What you might also notice is that my Nana is behind the doorway. She has supported me and my music career since day one. From driving me to countless lessons, to paying for my first guitar, to helping pay for sax lessons and to coming out to see me play so many shows..even up to a few years ago in her late 90's; Nana has always been my biggest cheerleader!
Look closer at the picture and you can see a few legs with high top socks (so fashionable) in between me and PA....and that would be my Dad. He was a quiet man but always let me know if I played the same song over and over and over again too many times 🙂 "Joey..don't you know any other songs!?" "Yes!. But Dad!...this is called practice!!" He was a big fan of Bruce Springsteen and I actually give him full credit for rockin those E Street Band songs while I heard the roaring Clarence Clemons sax riffs and solos...I was hooked!
Last but certainly not least is my Mom taking the picture. If you know my Mom, you know she is usually more up front and in the scene. She is never shy to tell a friend or a stranger that her son plays music and "you should go see him play!" Mom still always knows when I am playing shows and till this day, Mom might even know my current show schedule better than I do off the top of her head! More text in comments!

Feeling grateful to have Bethany as my wife, soulm

Feeling grateful to have Bethany as my wife, soulmate, and partner in crime. April has been an extremely busy month for me with work and with not being able to spend as much time with Bethany and the girls as we would all like. As she always has...Bethany showed up and stepped in. She has a demanding full time job (that she loves), but she also manages to give our 2 young girls quality time & fun experiences when I’m not there. Bethany does the laundry, helps keep a clean house, makes dinner, does the dishes, schedules family and social events & she always supports me during these crazy work seasons. All this and so much more with a smile on her face and no complaining. Yes, I play music for a living but make no mistake….Bethany is the true Rockstar of this family. So blessed and grateful for her each and every day.
