Stop me if you've heard this one before, but a friend just sent me a link to a page which tells me what foudning Cannibal Corpse guitarist Bob Rusey has been up to since being "dismissed" from the band in the mid-90s and…of all things… he's a golf instructor!
Rusey is a member of the United States Golf Teachers Federation and has his own profile on the GeoCities-like site which hints at his past without explicitly naming the band (for obvious reasons). His profile reads:
In junior high school I had discovered "music" and the power and exhiliration of a live performance. Shortly ater reaching high school, I was playing in a band and by graduation time I had signed with a major recording label and were were on our way.
In the course of eight years, we had put together three full-length albums and toured the United States, Europe, Mexico, and Canada several times and werw were featured in the movie "Ace Ventura, Pet Detective."
More power to Bob. Once leaving the band, he pursued his other passion and made a career out of it. The rest of us could be so lucky. But also, this makes me giggle!
Thanks Lauren B.
