Tim Sadow birthdate

[edit]

Tim Sadow (age 60 living near Phoenix, AZ) was a fiddle player and violinist for the Celtic rock band The Brazen Heads. I was spending a lot of time searching around for his birthdate on Google and couldn't find it. I like to know because he plays the violin in "Soulfly VIII", the only Soulfly song to feature a violin (I'm the fan of Soulfly). I contacted them through email, facebook, and webform contact on timsadow.com but never get back to me. Can anybody find his birthdate?; anyone can look for his birthdate better than I do.

If your protracted online search has not found a record of his birth date, It seems quite possible that he has actively avoided it being made public in this way. A living person's birth date is a matter private to them, to be disclosed only if they so choose, and you have no innate right to know it. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 2.218.14.51 (talk) 11:40, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How to be an actor after completing 12th? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:205:A08C:DC21:EE08:C0B4:E9E1:8765 (talk) 05:25, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

12th what? Year of age? Grade in school? 12th step in a 12-step program? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots14:19, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
How to be an actor (who probably works a part-time job while expecting that big break to come soon) or how to be a highly paid actor? 71.85.51.150 (talk) 20:37, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
What has "12th" got to do with anything? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots22:46, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
In India, grades are referred to as 10th, 11th, 12th. Since 10th is the top grade, 12th is sometimes referred to as +2 as well, equivalent to what others would call junior college or college prep. Then, at a university level, they are very specialized. There is a "creative" path that has traditionally included very little (advertising and communications). Recently, there has been an explosion of new creative universities. So, can you be an actor after finishing grade 12? You can enroll in an acting path, but that doesn't guarantee anything. An old joke that has become too true to be funny is that everyone in India has a PhD... a PhD in taxi driving, a PhD in food prep, a PhD in laundry services... 71.85.51.150 (talk) 12:40, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
