ABOUT

I don't know, not really sure I'm looking for a band anymore. I'm kinda losing interest. Not interested in playing the same awful WCSX 94.7 songs I can't stand to hear anymore. Most likely I'll just make YT drum videos to music I enjoy playing. Band Mix is a great site though and best wishes to those still looking.

I played clubs in a hard rock band in the 80s. Looking to play out once (or twice) a month.

Looking to play blues-based rock or straight-up rock.

At this point in my life I'm NOT trying to "hit the big-time". I just want to play good music and have some fun and if I make a few extra bucks...great.

I'm a pretty hard hitting, in the pocket type drummer, with a good steady feel.

Please contact me here at BandMix or at jkdetroit at mi dot RR dot com
