ABOUT

active in the late 60's,70's, mid 80's & briefly in early 90's doing school dances (late 60's-early 70's), clubs, some studio work, some bar/lounge tours, etc., have not been in a band in well over a decade now. chops are a little rusty, but coming back.

kids are older, so now I can play some again. interested in finding other players like myself who just wanna play, and don't care if we play out or not. just gotta scratch the musical itch I have had for 45+ years.

would like to do a fusion band ala' jeff beck, los lobotomies, dixie dregs, doves of fire and so on, but open to anything else.

can be reached at twisted-mister at mail dot com if interested in jamming.
