I've played metal to country kids, country to metal kids and indie alt-pop to no one who cared. In the end, though, I'm still a rocker at heart.
Looking to join an already existing band-in-need or to meet up with likeminded folks to start from scratch, folks who're in it for the joy of the jam but wanna be solid enough to land some (hopefully paying) gigs when the time's right.
Non-music stuff: I'm a dad, a hubby, a part-time ninja, and an old soul.
Social media stuff: If you're on the "Gram" of "Insta," I'm PlanetHipes.

Influences
A kind of 80s-90s Who's Who bass-wise, but musically I'm all over the map, from Classic Rock to rock classics, mainstream to the underground. A music teacher once said "there's no such thing as bad music; only those who do music badly." 'Bout sums up my outlook.

EQUIPMENT
Two Yamaha BBs, a 3000S and a 734A,both strung with Dunlops. Also an Ibanez ATK300 I strung BEAD to nab those lower notes. A Hartke 2500 for the volume and a GK MB-108 for the quieter moments. Looking at some pedals.
