ABOUT

Best on lead guitar and bass, also play decent drums and keyboards. Have all required equipment including 16 channel PA system. Willing to practice if everyone has their parts down beforehand. NOT willing to wait for others to get it right! Also a certified audio tech and professional electronics technician in Avionics and can fix most instruments and gear. I have a CD on the market and FIVE awards from Billboard. 2 ASCAP memberships - writer and publisher. My committment depends on how many gigs you can book and/or how competent you are in music. 4 gigs per month will keep me committed. No drunks, no free gigs, no wives or girlfriends who want to get up and sing "Me and Bobby McGee" every night. Show me what you can do on your instrument and SAVE THE B.S. STORIES. I wrote, played and sang all parts on the songs above and can back up my talk with action and instrumental skill. Can play on a moment's notice without practice in emergencies - 928-830-8960. Minimum $75 per gig or studio session.

Influences

Can play any popular style. I learn extremely quickly. Played professionally in St. Louis, Mo. in many pickup bands thrown together over the phone. I will only come to practice after everyone can play their parts correctly - please do your individual learning on your own time. Prefer bands with a song list in the 200+ range or more.

EQUIPMENT

At this time I'm pretty much retired from music, and have instead shifted my interest towards recording other bands on video. So far I have 7 or 8 fantastic professional studio VCR's and a few nice professional cameras (not camcorders). I also acquired and repaired a nice Sony professional TV camera, but it's from 1976 and has that vintage 1976 picture quality. I might be persuaded to play a quick thrown-together gig, but am more interested in recording someone else right now. Not charging for my services yet, so it's a good time to contact me to record your gig or jam session. There is a catch though - your band has to be a group of passionate performers, not the type who simply stand and strum all night. If you're the type who likes to run all over the stage and really get into the music visually - I would probably like to record you. PLEASE only call evenings or weekends.
