My name is Jag and I play blues

I play at the Rivermarket in Little Rock as well as other clubs and coffee houses.

Not sure

Not unless it was in my benefit.

Booger 9000 - Zappa type rock

IgoPogo - 'wall of guitar' alternative rock in the vein of Helmet and Band of Susans

I started playing rock guitar in 1978. OK I banged on it a few times in 1976 but that doesn't count. I started playing in a cover band (Black Molly) in Little Rock while still i high school. You know the story; Zep, Who, Stones, Skynyrd, etc. Did that for a few years then started to teach guitar while in college. Opened up my own recording studio in 1984 (still in business) and recorded about 40 90 minute cassettes of my own music over the next 20+ years. Got into blues after discovering Robert Johnson and RL Burnside.

Little Rock

I also make my own cigar box guitars and sell them on ebay:
