I"m a Pro. Bass Guitarist with 25+ years experience on stage and in the studio,so no problem with a click track. I"ve played in a number of bands through my music career,too many to name,but one you might be familiar with was "The Ameet River Band" i played with them for 3 or so years back in the late 80"s we played a wide verity of music stiles with an 80+song list.I started learning to play guitar when i was 11 years old and first played professionally on stage when i was 17 years old. I've been playing professionally ever since. I played in verity/dance bands in the late 70's to mid.80's,top40/KC and The Sunshine Band exc. I then moved on to the big hair rock band erra, VanHalen/Ted Nudgent stile rock from the mid.80,s to the early/mid.90,s. I then moved on to play with bands playing music stiles from the 70,s /LedZepplin/Arosmith exc. to the 90,s type stiles ,Metal/Alternative stiles like Matalica/GreenDay,and then moved on into the later 90,s music stiles through the 2014 newer stiles like NickelBack/SoundGarden/Braking Bindgermend,exc.So as you can see I have experience playing a very wide range of stiles of music,but my true passion is playing Rock music of any stile and Original stile music. To me, the more challenging the music is to learn,the more i like it. I have a very keen ear,that i developed when i first started learning to play guitar that inables me to find the key notes of the songs i want to learn with lightning fast speed, so i,m able to learn the songs and /or music i need to very quickly. I can also read guitar tabs and sheet music to learn songs if i need to. I also sing backup vocals/harmony and sing lead vocals on some songs too. I have great stage presents/the rock musicians look and pro. stage equipment. I,m ready and able to play 24/7 any day of the week and willing to travel any where ,any time so traveling isn't a problem for me.I'm also a very serious,dedicated and dependable professional musicain. I'm looking for a band that is already established in need of a bass player but will concider playing with a band that's just forming,but only with the right musicians, meaning musicians that are serious about their goals and their music career.I will even concider freelancing/sitting in temporary for a band that has a member who is unable to perform for whatever reason,,,give me a call ,my number is and my email is
