Were there any footprints found? It was a garden right? Soft Soil? Any casts made? Any fur or hair fragments found? If it was eating veggies or something there may have been DNA in the form of saliva or mucous left at the scene. I have to believe that this is the back end of a bear.

ABOUT KEVIN

Kevin has released three solo instrumental CD's Inventing Fire (2000), A Different Drum
(2005), and just recently Illumination (2010), through his own independent record label Da Vinci's Notebook Records. Kevin's music has received airplay all over the world on public and campus radio (China, Australia, Eastern Europe, Isreal, the United States and Canada) and has been used in film and television in the USA, most recently on the Oprah Winfrey Show.

A veteran of the Ontario circuit, Kevin now performs around the area with his "One-Man" live show. This unique show features him on- stage alone, playing drums while incorporating midi, digital sampling and looping technology to fill the space of the other instruments in real-time which he also played and recorded in his studio. " As far as I know, I'm the only one in Canada doing what I do. One person controlling all of the instruments via percussion triggering is very different."

This "different" approach is common to Kevin's philosophy about everything he does with his music. "All my life I've believed that 'once you become a slave to the rules you're just doing what everyone else is doing and once that happens, you don't stand out from the crowd.' I am comfortable writing instrumental music. That's not to say that I don't write music with lyrics because I do. I just don't put any pressure on myself to rely on lyrics to complete the music. If I was to do that every time I write a piece of music, I believe that I would be risking mediocrity by stuffing a song with lyrics just because it's part of the supposed formula. I'll be the first to admit that usually, very little of what I say is prolific so why put it in the music? If I really have something that I want to say, I'll write lyrics, but if not...it's OK because we all know that music is a universal language all on its own."
