I am seeking a working band who needs a straight ahead, old school drummer... Not a lot of flash; just solid as a rock and knowledgable about different genres... Can swing, play blues, country and rock like the sixties is supposed to sound... Also, am proficient at old school jazz...

I love a band that sounds like it's just about ready to fall apart... I'm not into click tracks... The tug and pull of an organic sound is what I seek... Listen to the organ on "Like A Rolling Stone"... Listen to the Jelly Roll Kings...

Influences:

Krupa; D.J. Fontana/Ronnie Tutt (Elvis's drummers); Sam Carr (The Jelly Roll Kings); Ringo; Levon Helm (The Band)

Equipment List:

A classic Pearl trap set circa 1966... (The Presidential series)... I use a 13 inch set of Avedis Zildjian (cir.1950) high hats to get a crisp chick sound, coupled with a 22 inch Avedis ride and an 18 inch Avedis crash and utilize my brushes quite a bit... Also have a Yamaha keyboard and can play key board rather well... Lastly, have a very good voice...
