Tamden Mind And Body

Every person has got photos taken in their lifetime and I'd like to share some of mine with you. Photos of when something happened that basically one will remember all his or her lifetime. You will find out why it was so easy writing songs like Deer Hunting Season Again by just viewing some of the photos on my website.If you think for one minute that I wouldn't have rather been doing something else but practicing, check out the photo of me when I was 7 years old. Then tell me I enjoyed practicing. It is always after the fact that one takes a good hard look at his or her past and in my case, I'm real glad that dad insisted that I play the accordion.Even though I played sports, (I lettered in wrestling), and I played basketball and track, i guess I was destined to be an entertainer. I think back on my high school years and I think back on all the jocks that were good friends of mine and you know what? None of them ever went on to become a Bret Farve or a Reggie White or a Mark Tauscher. No, they didn't and they were really good. But I, on the other hand, went on to use my talents as a musician many times in my lifetime, getting paid top dollar for something I truly enjoyed doing. I was able to fall back on entertainment and making people happy when there was nothing else available.Yes it's true, I didn't enjoy learning but now after 55 years I'm happy that my dad insisted that I learn how to play music. Many times in my lifetime it's been a God sent.I invite you to take a trip through my lifetime and to meet some of the people that have made a difference in my world and to see that entertaining wasn't all I did while growing up in Central Wisconsin. In this photo session you'll meet my mom, my dad and my six siblings. You'll also see people that made a difference.Take a tour of my lifetime and read all I have to say about what was going on when that picture was taken. Enjoy a trip to my past and I hope that you appreciate seeing the things that meant a lot in my life.
