Something Crazy?? (Watch Me Here…)

or here!

This young lady was a tad shy about getting stage, and I got up to do this with her. After that, she was a frequent singer and we did a handful of duets. Thanks Brooke for being so awesome!

About Me

If you found your way here, it may be because you’re looking to know more about me, or maybe it’s just by accident. My name is Frank, or Lars, there are some who call me…. Hank or Frakki Geitskegg Pétrsson.

I am an Ohio State graduate, in the field of Education, Comp & Lit. Professionally I do Education, Training, Customer Service, WordPress Design, Marketing, Sales and Support.

Some of my completed bucket list items include:

Bull Riding (that’s not me, we didn’t have smart phones back then)
Writing & Composing 2 Studio Albums that received a decent amount of radio play in the day! My original 1992 music was resubmitted to (Distrokid) and is on Spotify, Amazon, YouTube and Apple under Frank Petersen or the band Jus’ Teasin with my good friend Jim Backston.
New music was also submitted to DistroKid and is available. Due to the loss of my voice, this music now exists to highlight the lyrics and melody, as many new songs require an AI voice.
Singing on the stage of the Ryman Auditorium (‘Grand Ole Opry’)
Performing at the Newport Music Hall to few thousand “fans”.

A few of my ‘for fun’ current activities include:

Medieval Reenactment (midrealm.org)
Horseback Riding and helping a local Stable.

How geeky am I?

I’m not ashamed to admit, I’m a long time RPG fan. I received my first D&D box set in 1978, blue box, with chits (no dice). I have been playing ever since. I may have skipped 4e like all the other folks, but I never stopped playing. Since then I expanded to Pathfinder and Iron Kingdoms (d6, d20 and 5e).

For 30+ years I ran more than my share of players through adventures, including my own three kids, their school friends, and best friends. All of which still play today. Currently I GM a weekly game of Iron Kingdoms.

I am or was part of the following groups:

Member of Sigma Pi Fraternity, Gamma Chapter, OSU
Member of Certified Horsemanship Association (cha.horse)
Member of Society for Creative Anachronism (sca.org)
Member of ASCAP (IPI: 347024676)
(American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers)
Previous member of MCFHC (Mercer Co Facial Hair Club)
Previous member of the Freemasons & Scottish Rite
(As was my grandfather and his father before him)
