SEEKING
Band to Join, Drums.ABOUT
Born in the 60s, all original parts and mostly in working order.
I no longer need to work for a living so am enjoying spending much more time playing music. I am interested in playing more gigs with other musicians.
I enjoy playing a range of styles from Nile Rogers to Jimmy Hendrix. The best way to get an idea of my playing and stage appearance is to look at my YouTube showreel by clicking on the video on the left or better still use the link below in your browser as that will allow you to see and use the timestamps that I have put in the in the YouTube notes panel. You can click on the time stamps to jump to specific songs or genres.
(Slightly annoyingly, if you click on the video in this profile it does bring up the video in a pop up window but does not give the full YouTube functionality. To see the notes and timestamps you need to actually been in youtube and not the popup window. If you are looking at the video in the popup window just click on the YouTube icon just under the video and it should take you there in your browser) Better still you can cut and paste the link below into your browser:

Influences
Every guitarist I have ever listened to from jazz to rock and all the genres in between.... Hendrix, Santana, Clapton, Gary Moore, Jimmy Page, Blackmore, Paco Pena, Nile Rogers, Wilko Johnson, Joe Pass, that bloke in the Chillis.... love em all.
(The only thing I find tedious and uninteresting is 16 notes per second shredding which just makes a sound not unlike a buzzing bee... although I do like bees)
Instrument experience:
- Rhythm Guitar:
- Expert
- Lead Guitar:
- Advanced
EQUIPMENT
Listing gear is for teenagers, I have as many guitars as the bloke in Spinal Tap and more amps, pedals and stuff than I can remember off the top of my head.
My favourite guitar is my Red SG... and my white tele.... although my Larry Carlton L6 is growing on me...on the other hand my custom LP gold top........ (you get the picture ????)
