SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Looking for some new musical adventures. Would really like to start working on more original stuff than hacking through cover tunes but as long as there is a little of both don't mind a mix.
I'm basically a passable rhythm guitarist with a good sense of tempo and timing and a singer with pretty decent vocal range though it's tough for me to sing and play simultaneously without working at it.
I enjoy a lot of different styles and, with a little practice, can generally pick up just about anything from a rhythm perspective. I'm capable of some lead stuff - mostly staying within scales or by arpeggio - but its more a question of practice time than ability.

Influences
So let's start at about age three and go from there chronologically - just some of the highlights: Beatles, Stones, Three Dog Night, Zeppelin, Sabath, Queen, Thin Lizzy, Ramones, Sex Pistols, Clash, Misfits, Minor Threat, G&R, LA Guns, Ratt, Megadeath, Pixies, Janes Addiction, Green Day, The Hives, My Chemical Romance, Jimmy Eat World. That should give you a pretty good idea...
EQUIPMENT
Guitars: Lots - Fernandes, Washburn and Ovation fan. Amplification: Marshall and Crate heads (lower end/tubeless models - sorry) and Marshall 4X12 cabinet. Range of other smaller amp's for practice/recording. Older Fender Passport p.a.. Yamaha bass and low output Fender rumble amp. Pedals galore - couple different boards that are pretty much continuously being swapped out/tweaked/etc. Low end keyboard - fine for practicing/writing.
