His musician dad told him not to go into music, but Lance decided to go for a liberal arts degree at Suny Albany. Instead of going for a major in Psychology he decided to pursue music full time. He had to start over in Berkeley as a freshman but stopped after a year and a half. After leaving Berkeley he started teaching guitar on a full time schedule. He found that it was unstable as students would leave town for summer vacation or christmas break. He also wasn't getting any benefits. This led to him working in different offices such as a gps company as a trainer in his Mid thirties. He would eventually find a gig on a cruise ship as a musician.
