ABOUT

Kind of experienced gigging and recording
Haven't stopped playing either live or at home since the punk days circa '77.
My love of almost every genre has scoped out since then enjoying playing in most 'local' musical punky rock n pop movements since and picking up some music course stuff on the way.
I also like to dub things out in a ragga rock style :)

What you get from me is total commitment to learning the set inside out before gigging so it being as professional as possible.

Of course I'm knocking on a bit now 60!) but I truly haven't stopped, until of late.

*I've been playing on my acoustic a bit lately and was wondering if there's a Joni Mitchell fan/female voice out there who would like to sing to my chords please ? Maybe as part of a short open-mic ? Thank you

EQUIPMENT

Bass ( whatever I have at the time)- am currently thinking of getting a 5 string bass
Amp ~ Would get/have the right one
Pedals ~boost, compression, delay ,chorus etc
Acoustic guitars - small amp with effects
Electric - cheap one at the moment but ok to jam with then step up with a better one when and if needed
