Semi-retired, married for 40+ years. Currently self employed as a luthier mainly building electric guitars. I have been playing electric since 1966 and acoustic since 1970. I can sing pretty well and have written some originals. I have played in pickup bands and casuals in Alaska since 1976. I prefer recording or playing casual gigs at reasonable hours in the Wasilla area with people like me who are retired, semi-retired or full on pros who just want to record or play casual gigs occasionally. I don't need to make money so that's not my real motivator.
