SEEKING

ABOUT

I am 46 years old, and I pick up the guitar at about 13 or 14 years old. What made me pick it up what the heavy palm muted sound in "For Whom the Bell Tolls" from then on out, it has been a constant mission of perfecting my rhythm picking hand for Metal.

I am the type of musician that would play for free in peoples backyards if I had to in order perform, I love doing this for the Art....money, fame and fortune would just be a bonus to me. I jammed with a lot of bands while I was in Korea as if I was a guitar for hire, and charged no-one, It was just awesome to be able to play live.

If anyone is interested, I have recorded over 25 originals (only a couple with lyrics)using Cakewalk over several years and deployments, I would be willing to send you a demo of my latest.
