David is also acting as current editor of HowWasTheShow.
David's first big rock concert was U2 on their October Tour in 1982. He has been writing and recording music since 1979, and in the early 80's he was a radio DJ and newscaster - his first real job. During his career on the airwaves, he worked commercial and non-commercial AM and FM radio and spun records (actual vinyl ones!) from genres as varied as album rock, contemporary country, classical and big band. After graduating from Grinnell College and living in Milwaukee for a couple years, David moved to Minneapolis in 1988 where he performed original music at St. Anthony East (now Whitey's), then, in the early 90's (along with Dan Bussey) he ran the open stage at the club. He was also one of two booking agents and sound engineers (Troy Flemming was the other) at the now legendary 24 Bar in Minneapolis that closed in the spring of 1994.
A travel bug, David vacations in Europe each summer and attends the world's leading open air music festivals. To date, he has been variously muddied and sunburned at England's Glastonbury, Reading, and V-festivals, Denmark's Roskilde Festival, Dublin's Witnness Festival (now known as Oxegen), and Germany's Hurricane Festival. To this day, David still insists his favorite song is "Age of Consent" by New Order.
