ABOUT

I'm an amateur musician with pro chops just looking for regular rehearsals and gigging mostly for fun. That is unless you have a way to pick up more than 150.00 per night, here in AZ. I cover many genres competently. Have played in a few bands over the last 30 years, mostly bar, mid range clubs and I can hang with the best of them on the circuit doing covers at places like Freemont St. In Vegas and Reno, NV. Played the LA music scene in the 90's and early part of 2000 doing things like a Kip Winger Tribute, Elton John Piano bar type stuff for $$. I am seasoned, professional and easy going. I don't like to lead the band but I am capable. Drummer since 1982, but would rather front vocs at the moment. I CAN fill in in a pinch if you're drummer comes up missing, but not on a perm basis. Just looking for a good group of people I can meld with and expand horizons. No stranger to the studio. Can do percussion outside of acoustic drums (kit) like bongos, congas, timbale.
