Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Other Percussion, Keyboard, Piano, Other.ABOUT
I play the drums and trying to learn guitar. I have been playing since I was 12. I listen to metal , rock/hard rock, and some blues. I have a degree in video/audio production. I'm interested in finding or starting a band to play in that is of some form of rock/hard rock or metal. I'm not interested in black metal, death metal(maybe proggy stuff like Opeth and Scar Symmetry), or deathcore.
I'm also interested in doing session drumming for anybody that needs it. Does not matter to me what style, (pop, hip hop, rock, etc..)

Influences
Metal, rock, and blues. Drummer influences are hard for me to say. I take influence/inspiration from everything I hear. Lars got me into drumming when I first heard One when I was a kid. Mike Portnoy and Danny Carey(tool) inspired me to experiment and just get better. Also Martin Lopez ex Opeth, Stone Sour's drummer, and Sean Kinney of Alice in Chains.
Bands I've listen to a lot through the years would be Alice in Chains, DT, Metallica, Death Angel, Pantera, Down, COBodom, Stone Sour, Volbeat, Alter Bridge, Killswitch Engage, White Zombie, Faith No More. Too many bands to list. Metal and rock in general inspire.
