Hey, my name is Rico. I'm 5'8", red hair, green eyes & a medium build. I was born in Bemidji Minnesota, and spent the first six years of my life living in New Jersey, Philly, Norfolk, and Virginia Beach. My dad was in the Navy so I had NO choice about it! (if you built a house out of dead dogs, filled it with cow shit, then set it on fire... THAT'S what New Jersey smells like!!!) I moved to Fargo back in '77, and I graduated from N.H.S. back in 1989. After graduation I lived for awhile in Des Moines Iowa & Evergreen Colorado. I have a beautiful daughter, Raina Marie Goss (Raina means "Queen" In Spanish... and coincedentally Richard is old english for "Powerfull Ruler/King". Go figure?!?) She lives with her Momma in Ada M.N., but hangs with Daddy on the weekends! Raina is the most important person in my life, and I would gladly kill or be killed for her. I have a shit-load of tattoos, (thanx Trent @ Addictions!!!) some of which you can see on my pic page, and I plan on getting PLENTY more! I also have eleven piercings... but only nine are visible to the "naked" eye. Guess where the other two are? Hehehe... I first got into music when I started taking piano lessons when I was in sixth grade & started playing snare drum also, and jumped on my first trap set when I was a freshman. (thanx again Trent!!!) I've been a percussionist for 23 years now and can play a wide range of instruments including... full drum set; timpani; marimba; xylophone; vibraphone; djembe; timbara; berimbau; bombo leguero; kpanlogo; tabla; bongos; conga; cuica; timbau; marimbula; timbales; talking drum; zendrum; idiophone; piano; guitar; bass; piano; clarinet; english horn; everything from tenor to baritone saxophone; flute; piccolo; bassoon; and oboe. I've played with many bands such as Lokjaw; Valhalla; (sic); Live Evil; The California Muskrats; Third World Hate Regime; The Shady Movers, plus a bunch of others that never made it out of the practice studio!! Presently I'm starting a new band called 12 Oz. Epilogue. One of the members is the former singer of Necktie Suicide, and the other is the former bassist of The Krims! RIP IT UP A.J. & Sabe!!! I recently moved back to Fargo From Halstad & now I'm workin security at The Hub... I'm the new Monkey Bar bouncer!!! I can't tell you how nice it is being around stores that are open 24 hours a day! (Not to mention being able to buy off-sale after 10pm & on Sundays!) Check out the myspace profile @ myspace.com/spit420 & my music page @ myspace.com/zurichstarr
