ABOUT

Hey all. Looking to put something together. Maybe my last shot at this cause i ain't getting younger. I DON'T want to put together the same old same crappy band like we got around here. I agree we need covers to get our foot in the door and a fan base but lets at least do it with style..... Not just a bunch of drunkin idiots murdering good music week in and week out. If I had to choose my weakness it would be two things....I will never scream like Jeff Tate and I have a terrible memory when it comes to remembering the lyrics.........So modern electronics can inhance my scream and well, nicely hidden moniters like they use in karaoke can insure all lyrics are sung..... Problem solved!!!! I sing out 5 nights a week now for practice, I try to hit open mic nights and karaoke bars when the old lady lets me off the leash. I practice regularly.

Grew Up playing and diging Metallica till They put out the black album.....Can play most all on guitar up till the black album.
