But we do have a golf course near by and I play fairly regularly.

Everything I've done in my career has started in and around Detroit, you know, the metro area and Michigan.

I had sort of exhausted all the avenues playing in Detroit. So again, through the stewardship of my brother, I ended up in California and went to the Musicians Institute in L.A. I wanted to get better as a player.

Yeah I grew up on the Westside of Detroit.

I try to deign golf courses that are individual in character and individual in their own standing.

I really don't have a favorite course. I usually ask where there are the least players.

I experienced American golf courses when I was younger and played a lot of USGA and AJGA tournaments.

I can read in any book and newspaper about the city of Detroit, but I want to hear what the people in Detroit have to say about Detroit. My best education is actually talking to people.

Almost all the golf courses in Staten Island double as something else.

But I do have time to pencil in golf, and we've got four excellent courses.
