John La Mond
When I'm not at work, I'm probably out playing drums for LAST SHOT, playing guitar, shooting pistols or sitting in a tree stand (most likely in Allegany County). Does this make me a redneck? Yeah, maybe. I'm a guy with way too many hobbies. The latest new one is winemaking. I love to hang out with my family and Golden Retriever Bailey. Bailey was a gift to my wife Debbie when she was going through Chemotherapy about five years ago. I have two teenagers which may account for the severe hair loss and the very grey beard. My mom always told me I have the perfect face for radio.
