From Matt in Raleigh

I witnessed the whole thing as it unfolded. Including watching the second plane coming up the hudson river and into the Tower 2. It was just a nightmare. Because I was in the IT field, I had to get back to work. So among all the madness we still had to work. It was just a crazy time.

How has your life changed in the 10 years since the 9/11 attacks?
Life as we all know it changed that day. Since then I've stopped working on Wall Street, My wife and our 3 1/2 year old twins live in Raleigh. I'm back to teaching music at Falls River Music and play guitar for The Chris Hendricks Band. Here is a link to a song I wrote back in 2001. We just re-release it tonight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHeE86Anenc&feature=colike
