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.

Influences:

Slowdive, My Bloody Valentine, Explosions in the Sky, Mono, Labradford, Jakob, Isis, Cult of Luna, Maserati, Caspian, Juno, etc. Lots of guitars echoing and shimmering and crashing in and out of phase. Drums that lay back and groove and then explode.

Equipment List:

Electric 12 string guitar (Yamaha Pacifica), electric baritone gruitar (DanElectro), Fender Jazzmaster, Roland JC120 amp, more pedals than I know what to do with, Alesis quadraverb and Alesis microverb, some other stuff.
