SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I've played thousands of shows with dozens of regional groups since 1976. I can play anything I hear and I always put on a great show. I'm not too loud and I don't overplay. I can solo, but I prefer to let the melody instruments do that. In addition to performing, I can write and arrange. I have an excellent work ethic and I'm never late.
