The Moody Minstrel in the saddle

About
I came to Japan in 1990 for what was supposed to be a two-year stint. Then, by some bizarre stroke of fate, I got a real life, so I'm still here. For a gaijin with an imagination and more than his share of sensitivity, these islands are a never-ending source of adventure.
About Me
- Name: The Moody Minstrel
- Location: Namegata City, Ibaraki, Japan
I was born on a rainy day on the Oregon Coast (no surprises there) and through a rather convoluted sequence of events wound up in Japan. I'm a teacher by trade, moonlighting as a musician and composer. I also do quite a bit of writing on the side. I'm a dreamer, a thinker, a sayer, and a doer all wrapped in one deceptively mild-mannered package.

Unfortunately, Mr. Ogawa wouldn't let me direct the orchestra this year because of the strict division of responsibility he experimented with. I only did the jazz band, which is still alright. I don't have any good stock pictures of myself directing the jazz band, though.

You can't see it in the picture, but Moody is directing the 3rd Infantry Division.
