I sing anything from Pat Benetar, to Heart, Journey, Van Halen, Cheap Trick, Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, Cyndi Lauper, Tina Turner....too much to write about I'd rather sing it!!!! I can sing great harmony on stuff like the Eagles, can perform a beautiful balland from Ronstadt and can definitley rock out some Halen and Journey!!!!!
