I'm late 40's responsible/professional type, replete with mortgage, kids, etc. I'm a comfortable guitar player and can find a place to fit in most situations, and I'm pretty good company in general, preferring above all else to laugh and enjoy myself. I did a bit of the 'open mic acoustic duo' thing, played bass in an all-original alt-rock somethingoranother, and am currently playing in the Greenville area with The Rent... a group of dudes and a band who I friggin adore. I'm down to jam with anyone.... picolo, kettle drum, bagpipes, I don't care. I'll try anything once. I'm not necessarily looking to join to play out incessantly to help pay the mortgage, but a pick-up every now and then, or a more regular thing with folks of good company, as the entering argument, is my kind of thing. Playing is fun, playing out is a lot of fun, and good company is the best... so, no real limitations other than it needs to be enjoyable, and for everybody. I've got some videos on be under the clever moniker "Bruxeez" and another channel using my name, Jason Brooks. s://./channel/UCJ9HwnpuyUd6mYyicQcwm2A
