ABOUT

Looking for 'hobby band' mates...send a note to jrmock (at) att (dot) net

I've been in bands off and on for years. Hoping to find others who have fun playing, and want to get loud once a week or so! With the right group of people, I'd love to be in the band that opens for other bands, start early, leave early.

Been listening to funk groove stuff, Soulive, Lettuce, the Motet etc etc.

Usually pretty flexible, available most nights and weekend afternoons, even on short notice, have beer, will travel.

I'm a Hendrix wannabe, and love those deep cuts from the Hendrix later albums, heavy blues rock oriented stuff and great funk grooves.
