Why do you play barefooted? |

I've been playing barefooted all my life. As a kid growing up in San Antonio, my brothers and I were always into sports. We spent a lot of time outdoors in the yard playing football, basketball, and baseball. For some reason in the heat of S.A. it was always more comfortable (for me) to run around barefooted. Depending on the season (and the weather), I would play a sport outside, then I'd run inside and play drums, then I would run back outside and play again. I got used to playing drums barefooted and so when I started playing gigs it felt very uncomfortable to play with shoes on. I have a few early pictures of myself when I was about 13 where I'm playing with only socks on. From then on, it was barefooted for me.
