got some videos on my personal profile and originals, covers and operatic arias on my music profile
I started in theater at age 4. I sang in church and in musicals til I graduated from the School for the Creative and Performing Arts in Cincinnati, Ohio. I have been playing guitar and bass for twelve years and over the last year have studied up on the drums. I have played in various cover bands but never got an original band out of the garage. I want to start an original band either psychedelia/experimental without vocals or alternative/classic rock with vocals.

EQUIPMENT
I have enough equipment, all i need are some warm bodies cuz I can't be everywhere at once. I have an 18 piece drum set, Tama drums, meinl and zildjian cymbals, and Pearl 2002C powershifter eliminator double bass pedals. (they fly)
I play a takamine EF series ac/elec guitar gr8 on rhythm but I'm not the lead guitarist. I have a PA and mixer, sm58, fender jazz bass, and a Godin LG elec guitar with a pair of noice seymour duncan single coil pickups. But I happen to have the hardest thing to find ... a practice space. I have my own house with everything all set up and ready to go every day. I play every day. I am looking for those serious enough to play hard every day. I may not be the flashiest player but I can sing my ass off and write cool lyrics that aren't poserish or hokey. I am not awesome at any one instrument but passable at all of them. I also play trumpet, harmonica, and hand drums out the wahzoo. I am mainly a singer/songwriter and my songs could be hits. (a certain singer who shall remain nameless plagiarised a song i made up one day on the tiolet about how he assaulted his girlfriend in my presence, and subsequently has made millions without ever having another hit song. I know I can write hit songs that will bring enjoyment to millions of people. I just need some dedicated like-minded people who are ready to start a revolution. Skill is not a prerequisite only the dedication and drive to become better. It's all about the fun!!
