I am currently looking for a part or full time band to play out. My current job is ending, so I am available fulltime if you have the gigs. Ready to travel and open to hearing about any opportunities you may have. I've got the time now, so am ready to give it a go.. the spirit of adventure calls! I'm laid back and generally easy to get along with, and you all know how important that can be when you are spending so many hours together. I am even amusing now and then!

Influences
I've listened to and played so many types of music over the years, I really can't list any particulars but will say that I am partial to bands that are more open in their playing styles and less comfortable in bands that insist that things be played like the record.. note for note every time. I understand lots of people want to hear that, but how terribly boring!

EQUIPMENT
Peavey ValveKing/Bugera for small gigs, Marshall 1060 Lead cab w/Mesa Tremoverb for larger shows. I'm not an effects junkie but have used a POD XT Live, assorted pedalboards and such. Currently playing a Heritage 150P Les Paul, a Gibson SG and others depending on the mood on the electric side. Godin A-6 Acoustic, Michael Kelly hybrid, Greg Bennett solid body classical on the acoustic side.
