SEEKING
Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Violin, Piano, Other, Steel guitar.ABOUT
I'm a 35 year old father of 3, and a scientist at UAMS. I haven't been serious with band in about 5 years due to the kids and moving around doing fellowships, but I want to get back into it. I've played in several bands with decent regional popularity, recorded and released a few CDs, and played lots of gigs. I do not have the time or the inclination to get in a van and tour with anybody, I'm too old to sleep on floors, and I have no aspirations whatsoever to be a rock star. But I would love to practice once per week, play out regionally once per month or so, record and put out CDs, etc.
