Besides being the name of one of my brother's dogs, Truj is my only real, rewarding hobby. Having been introduced to the joys of home recording by Tommy (aka Wasted Day Music) I have become pretty addicted to it.

My heroes are Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee, Layne Staley, Zakk Wylde and Bob Rock. Hmmmm, they'd probably make an amazing album........

I use a range of programs, Cubase SX3, FL5, Guitar Rig 2, Ampeg SVX, vast amounts of VST plug ins, Alesis SR-16, Mackie Spike, I also have some Behringer Compressors and wotnot and, of course, my wee PC.

I use Ibanez guitars, Schecter 5 string basses (soon to be upgraded to a 5 string Gibson Thunderbird) and an m-audio midi keyboard which I have never really used but probably should.
