About

Formed and drummed with "The Screaming Wilhelms" until that band died. We gigged at places like 42nd Street, Napper Tandy's, Fat Daddy's, etc, and always got good crowd response. Played mostly 90's rock and later, with a bit of alt-rock mixed in as well as some older stuff (Jesse's Girl, Smokin' in the Boys Room).

I don't smoke, don't drink more than 1 beer at gigs, work hard, and show up on time to practices and gigs. I have a steady job, so this is strictly nights and weekends with no travel.

I'm looking to get with some guys (or girls -- don't really care) who want to meet once a week for rehearsals and who can be counted on to be there on time and ready to play.

I don't like Southern Rock or Oldies, so if you have any desire to play CCR, Free Bird, Sweet Home Alabama, or (god forbid) Mustang Sally I am not your drummer.

If you're looking for something more alternative and modern, contact me at mikesnare at gmail.

Influences

90's and later alt-rock and some electronica. Foo Fighters, Jimmy Eat World, MGMT, Statistics, Matt and Kim, Metric, Silversun Pickups, Airborne Toxic Event, Foster the People, etc...
