Have been playing for 43 years off and on. There were years in between that I didn't play at all, and others that I played some. Through it all, I've kept my enthusiasm and love for the music. I practice on a mostly daily basis, and I'm currently playing in a working band. I'm looking for some serious musicians, with some expertise in their playing, and the dedication it takes to get the music to a professional level, (not just good enough). I am currently playing Classic Rock with some blues mixed in, in the vein of the artists mentioned in the influence section, but am open to others also. Some current country (i.e. Garth Brooks, Brooks & Dunn, etc.) would be fine. I'd like to join an established (preferably working) band, or at least a (together band) that just needs a drummer. I'm very serious about my music, and would require the same commitment from the other band members. I figure if you're going to do it, do it right, or don't do it at all.
Musical influences are Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Healy, Robert Cray, Jimi Hendrix, Eagles, Led Zepellin, Heart, Foreigner, Beatles, Frampton, Doobie Bros., etc.
Drummer influences: Mitch Mitchell, Artemus Pyle, Neil Peart, Don Henley, John Bonham, Simon Kirke, Nick Mason, Ansley Dunbar, and others too numerous to list.
