About
I am a veteran player. I am available to fill in and or join a working group. I learn my material, show up on time, sober, and ready to entertain and mix with the crowd. I like original material if a band is working on more than some strict concept with some guy who doesnt know percussion pulling the strings. It takes some ego to be a performing musician but anal retentive types need not call. Metalists of a modern nature need not even ask. Music has to have feeling and more than one rythym in order for me to get interested. No screamers, no negative bitchy music with a grudge in the message.
Influences
Ringo Starr, Buddy Rich, Gene Kruppa, John Bonham, Jim Keltner, Ian Paice, Keith Moon, Appice bros., Joey Kramer, Carl Palmer
Equipment List
Two kits, one is a vintage 4 piece Ghost Riders from 1970, a five piece Pearl Forum series, Ziljian K and Z series with some old school medium crashes, Paiste hi hat and some Meinl offerings also.
