Hello Cowboys Fans,
I am super thrilled to be returning for my third year on the Dallas Cowboys Rhythm and Blue Drumline! I'm excited to learn new things and have you, the fans, see what we have in store.
I grew up in Garland, Texas and have lived here my entire life. I am a huge people person and love to help everyone in any way that I can.
I am grateful for this opportunity to be a part of this organization once again; the people I have met, the lessons I have learned, and the fun I've had still feels like a dream. I want to thank Cowboys Nation for being the best fans! I know we will have a lot of fun this year.
Let's go, Cowboys!
Alec
Number of years on the team: This will be my third year being a DCRB Drummer and it still feels like a dream. Performing every home game in front of all of the people in the plazas and then walking into the stadium… it still feels like the first time, every time.
Prior Drum/Entertainment Industry Experience: I drummed all through middle school, high school, and some of college before joining the DCRB Drumline.
Nicknames: My nicknames are Lil Rocky and Golden Nugget.
Hometown: I was born in Richardson but raised in Garland, TX.
I drum because: I drum because I have never been able to sit still and would always "tap tap tap" on everything, so every teacher I had in elementary school told me I was definitely going to be a drummer. In middle school, I was finally able to try out for a line. I made it and I've drummed ever since.
What I like to do most besides drum is: My favorite things to do outside of drumming are boxing, sleeping, eating, watching movies, and…boxing, did I say that already?
Advice to Youngsters: My advice to youngsters is to not be afraid of being who you are… You are unique in your own way, so own it.
My biggest role model is: My biggest role model is definitely my twin brother, Damian. He pushes me to do better and no matter how tough life gets to keep a smile on my face.
What I enjoy most about being a DCRB Drummer: What I enjoy most about being a Drummer for DCRB is the electricity on game day from the crowds and the other players on the line.
Favorite Cowboys player past or present: My favorite Cowboys player is Amari Cooper.
Favorite Performer: My favorite performer would definitely have to be Tupac Shakur; while I never got to see him live, I can only imagine how great it would've been.
Favorite Music: I love rap from the 80s and 90s. It all had great stories to tell.
Favorite Quotes: My favorite quote is "Don't count the days, make the days count!" -Muhammad Ali.
The three guests I would invite to my fantasy dinner party are: The three guests I would invite to my fantasy dinner party are Muhammad Ali, Arturo Gatti, and my boxing coach Mr. Esh'Chadar
