Play anything with a great heartbeat from Elton John all the way to Slayer and Slipknot. NO INTEREST in Country music. I can appreciate the icons of country music like all true musicians… I just don’t want to play it. It’s not fun for me. Non drinking player, not on the wagon just don’t really like it anymore. 52 with 3 grown daughters and recently became a grandfather. Very young at heart with a lot left to give to a great band with intentions of playing out at least twice or more a month.
