I'm 44 years old, I'm pretty much easy going. I love playing drums, been doing it since I was about 13. I've been in many bands throughout my life. I have performed and recorded with many musicians and bands. I don't do drugs and I drink socially / ocassionally, but never while practicing, rehearsing or performing. I like to write songs, and also like to work with a metronome when possible. I take constructive criticism well and always open to suggestions, I ask you to be the same. Open communication is a must. I can send tracks upon request. Thanks for looking. Any questions just ask.
