INTERESTED IN WORKING WITH OTHERS (LYRICIST AND OR MUSICIANS)INTERESTED IN CREATING NEW SONGS SOMETHING SNAPPY WITH AN IMPACT OR JUST TO PLAY COVER TUNES. BACK IN DECEMBER I HAD AN ACCIDENT AND CUT MY LEFT HAND IN HALF AND I AM BEGINNING TO PLAY ONCE AGAIN. I HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT A DOZEN TUNES THAT COULD HAVE UNLIMITED POTENTIAL. SOME MAY SOUND LIKE PHIL COLLINS MEETS THE EAGLES? OTHERS I COULDN'T SAY. I NEED TO BE GIGGING WITH A GROUP WEATHER YOU JUST WANT TO GET A GIG TOGETHER FOR MAKING EXTRA SCRATCH ON THE CLUB SCENE OR IF YOU BELIEVE YOUR NEVER TOO OLD TO ROCK LETS TALK (617-335-7663). IF YOUR A BULLsh*tTER OR ALCOHOLIC DRUG ADDICT ITS NOT FOR ME. BEEN THERE DONE THAT HAVE ALREADY HAVE THE TEE SHIRTS . I FIRST LEARNED GUITAR IN HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAM IN 1977. WENT ON TO PLAY IN BAND WITH FRIENDS IN NORTH MIAMI BEACH WRITING AND PLAYING MOSTLY ORIGINAL SONGS AND SOME JIMMY BUFFET, DOOBIE BROTHERS, EAGLES ANS STUFF LIKE THAT. WHILE GROWING UP IN NORTH MIAMI BEACH I GOT TO SEE ALL THE MAJOR BANDS OF THE LATE 70'S AND EARLY 80'S. AFTER HEARING RASCAL FLATTS A FEW YEARS AGO I GOT REALLY INSPIRED TO START PLAYING AND WRITING AGAIN.
I HAVE BEEN SLOWLY WORKING ON LEARNING NEW THINGS AND WRITING SOME NEW SONGS AND NOW I WOULD LIKE TO FIND SOME PEOPLE WHO WOULD BE INTERESTED IN FORMING A BAND AND WRITING AND PLAYING ORIGANAL MUSIC. I DON'T READ MUSIC OR PLAY LEAD. I CAN KEEP A BEAT (I HAVE BEEN TOLD I PLAY MELODIC DRUMS) AND STRUM GUITAR CHORDS. THIS MAY BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT.
