ABOUT

I played steel guitar 35 years and electric guitar for over 40 years. I recently sold my steel guitar, as I was bored with it. I am working very hard on my chops on the Telecaster guitar, learning advanced stuff as quickly as I can. The last band I was in, opened for Sammy Kershaw, and also for Lone Star about 6 years ago. I want to find musicians with a similar back ground and level of experience, or what ever, to put something together. I am not stuck in any one genre, or the three allowed in the profile settings. A blend of all genres would be cool. I just want to have a chance to "spread my wings" as a lead guitarist.
