This is where Monty can tell you all about himself...

Welcome to my section of the Lost Cause website.  As this is digital and I am analog forgive me if the whole site crashes as you read this.  My son and daughter observe that I have electronic radiation that comes out of my fingers to destroy computers.   I feel that this may some day be used to save the Universe.

 

Playing guitar with Lost Cause is my excuse to hang out with the guys, and at least one girl.  I started playing guitar at age 8.  I am now 52 plus.  You would think I would be hell on wheels by now, but I skipped about 18 years of playing along the way and was a folkie when I did play so shut up.

 

I now have opened the whole Pandora’s box to my right brain, writing a humorous column for a national magazine every month for over 15 years, performing my own old hippy mountain folk rock music at various locations in the area, doing standup music and comedy for my fellow doctors around the country…next stop New Mexico, and , of course, slamming my plank with Lost Cause while entertaining myself with various props from ZZ Top beards to my trademark Ass Pants (You’ll just have to come see us…).  Mostly, though, I enjoy the music and my brothers (and sister) in the band, except for the very goofiest songs. 

 

My dream?  Win an Oscar for one of my own songs.  Maybe play Mountain Stage.  Or, even better, stay happy, healthy, and odd.  Thanks to my lover, Renee, and my brilliant and beautiful grown up kids, the future dentists of the family, Aaron and Amber, and, now, my future lovely new daughter (in law) Ashley.  I appreciate you guys allowing me to be who I am.   

 

Come see Lost Cause.  You will never be the same and you might just be there when I save the Universe, or at least when I remember that next chord , both once in a lifetime events.
