I play lead guitar in the garage band I created. Our band consists of two former NASA engineers who play drums and bass guitar. My college age grandson is our lead singer and plays keyboard with our band and his church groups.He has been playing since he was 6 yrs old and is a very good keyboard player, singer and composer. I have been playing for over 20 yrs and have an excellent guitar instructor, Charlie Lair, who gives me weekly lessons to improve my playing. My garage is set up with drums, amps, neon lights, etc. We play for the enjoyment and haven't done any paying gigs. I also wrote a few songs. I played trombone in a Polka band in Junior High and High School.
