SEEKING
Band to Join, Bass Guitar, Drums, Piano, Vocalist.ABOUT
I've been a musician since I was 12, and from the age of 19 until I got married at 24 I was a touring pro. We played mostly covers, but some original, probably not very good! I'm a little (!!) older & wiser now, but would love to get together with some like minded & vintage players to get out & play some small clubs now & again. Get the juices flowing. Feel that live music rush again. Maybe get a hand job in a filthy alley behind a bar... let's just see how it goes.

Influences
Heavily influenced by Neil Giraldo, just love his style. Billy Gibbons, no one feels his way around a fretboard like him. Clapton, of course, some of the modern players of the 80's, and more recently Joe Bonamassa. Can't play like him, but I've learned a lot by trying!!
