I am retired and want a second career as a full-time musician. I have been playing bass in a Blues band for about four years. (That's me on bass in "Come and Go Blues".) I also play acoustic guitar, sing either lead or backup.

I play drums if needed. (2 yrs drums experience)including congas, bongos, shakers, etc. I have been told I have very good internal meter.

My ideal situation would be in a show/concert type band, doing mostly parties, festivals, etc. I don't want to play nothing but bars for the rest of my life. Once in a while isn't bad.

Influences:

Too many to list, but top of the list right now would be The Allman Brothers Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Kenny Chesney, Delbert McClinton...then I've been into Folk, Bluegrass and other things before.

Equipment List:

Bass, Bass Amp, Elect. Guitar Amp, Acoustic Guitar, Yamaha Keyboard which I don't play well
