ABOUT

Shot in the dark this whole Bandmix thing for me, so here goes:

I've been playing drums for almost 40 years, I've had piano lessons when I was a kid, was in band in all grades as young as elementary up to college.
I have a ridiculously diverse taste in music and enjoy playing as much as listening to my favorite songs.
Herein lies the catch, I've only played live 3 times in my life officially, and covers sitting in for someone else. I've never had my own band, nor the courage to join one.
I'm here to find either encouragement, or somehow see if playing with/around others might influence me to do more.

After owning several kits through out the years, this is what I have now for a compact space and light-packing:

I have my own PA, and analog/digial (hybrid) soundboard.
