i work full-time and i am not close to retirement. however, i really enjoy playing music to keep me happy and healthy.

Influences
Johnny Cash, Elvis, Hank Sr., Muddy, and the people who influenced them. I like songs and set lists that keep the audience dancing - not ambiance background music - not bob your head while drinking tea music - i like to be the center of attention, playing upbeat music that brings the fans to the stage to dance the set with us...
EQUIPMENT
telecaster (69 thinline), dreadnaught (Martin DCPA4 - has traveled with me even to Africa), some amps, mice. I also play harp and have a rack - on my Africa stint I got proficient to play harp and guitar at the same time. most of my harps are lee oscar, but i have other harps - all tops.
