During the late 80's and early 90's, Dancing Allowed was all over Texas. Thanks in part to non profit organizations like NA, PADAP, AA and others, I stayed very busy. Traveling around from Galveston to the Woodlands, my brown van with all the dance stickers on the back was very visible. I was learning to DJ and everybody was dancing.

The Galveston convention in 1990 was one of the biggest shows while the the First Friday dances in the Woodlands were very popular with a very big draw. We even took over a couple of club nights providing Chemical Free nights with soft drinks and coffee. My last show was KISS on New Years night 1992. I took early retirement from my day job at Texaco and moved to Hawaii. There I learned to teach Scuba and drive boats. In 1998 I returned and started to DJ again. Last venue was Blue Door, the original.

Well, it is official boys and girls. The Dr. is out of retirement. As of this posting my next scheduled gig is Friday Febuary 12, 2010 at the GCC on Minetta.

Also spinning Friday, February 19, 2010 with DJ Whisperwish at the HaVoK VIP Lounge. We will be spinning all evening at 1503 Chartres in Downtown Houston.

There is a strong possibility the captain may retire. To be more specific I may retire from the water world I have been living and actively pursue my consulting and Dj activities full time. I have three resumes an am actively sending them out weekly. That being said, I am getting more nibbles on consulting and Dj'ing. The money is not as good but is money really "good" anyway? I have been rich and poor, I like rich but ....

Thanks to the current administration I may be able to return to school and upgrade my computer skills. These are all just considerations at this time.

Thanks to everyone for the support and donations to my situation. If there is any thing you need from the Captain, drop me an e-mail. That will be the best way to catch up with me, where ever life may lead.
