In 1978 we started work at Aires Audio, St. Louis Missouri.
A young DJ at the time named Freddy Barrera, was just starting a sound company in South St. Louis.
As I was already working with Contemorary Productions, mixing sound for my local High School buddies band, and interested in starting on my Electrical Engineering degree, Freddy gave me chance at working for his company mixing sound, and eventually building his FOH and monitor rig.
Over the next 6 years, we had the pleasure of mixing many many many bands, that came thru the midwest area.
