An early childhood memory of mine is the feud between Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant, a story that built toward WrestleMania III at the Pontiac Silverdome. Music was in that building too, and it came into my life like a freight train.

I was somewhere around seven years old the first time a story made me feel something I hadn't felt before. It followed me from that day on. Into my personal and professional life.
