ABOUT

I'm an 'old pro', retired, but still want to play / sing in the 'right' situation. Essentially, looking for an established band...not interested in start-ups...sorry!
I grew up on 60's music, but in later life have played 80's / 90's Country, (which i prefer) and some Classic Rock.
No substance problems. Reliable and can still do the job well.
Originally from U.K, but have lived in U.S. since '95.
I do play guitar, (electric, MAINLY rhythm) but i'm essentially a singer who plays some guitar.
Not into 'egotistical' players..just want to do the job well, have fun and earn a few bucks.
I am 'very' big on principal, and will not play for free!
Just being very honest here!!! I've spent my life in music, touring the world. Many T.V. / Radio shows, plus a great deal of writing /recording, played 1000's of gigs and still believe my input is worth getting paid for, just as a Plumber or Electrician would require. I consider myself a 'humble' guy, and easy to get along with. I'm looking for the same.
