Hi I’m Mike. First post in Reno area. I’ve been here two years. From MT originally and work/TW currently in Bay Area. I live in Reno/Truckee. New to area musically. I’ve toured, I’ve played in lots of bar bands. Have recorded multiple albums. Currently finishing up a life long recording project with some buddies . We hired LA Guns Ex singer on vocals who is killing it????I’m looking to play live and I can play a lot of genres. My day job is Wildland Firefighter and I’ve made music work throughout the years. I’m in Risk Management now and not required to be gone 150 days a year fighting fire. Almost done with that ( early retirement) and looking for some professional musicians that want to have a good time and explore music. I prefer original music but also would be interested in a good.. cover band. I’m kind sincere, professional and looking for like minded individuals that would like to create some good music for us and the audience to enjoy. I have three pro kits, DW Collectors addition, Mapex Pro, Tama Star Classic,I have all mics, cords, drum monitors to ready to roll. I can sing, and write Melodies, lyrics and harmonies. I’m looking for a great band. Hard Rock to Country, with an edge towards rock. If you are interested in an attractive, good soul with a great meter and fills only when they are needed ????or required-type drummer I’m your guy.
