Band to Join, Vocalist, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Piano, Background Singer.ABOUT
40yrs of classic rock experience. Decent rig (2 electrics, 2 acoustic, pedals, lounge-sized amp, mic, stand, etc.). Used to do harmony parts and when a gun was placed to my head and the singer was late/drunk/a RPITA, I stepped in. LOVE playing music. Looking for like-minded folks to have fun, make music and perform, some day. Many clips/vids available for your review.

Great lyrics, typical Jackson Browne construction, neat message. Epiphone WildKat with a bit of hair to add enough bite.

Great song, needed to under-play rhythm to not over-whelm any of the other vital elements. Cool tune.
