I've played, written and performed for 30+ years...'bout time that I post some of the stuff that I've written lately...
Music is geared toward TV/Commercials/Gaming - this is the reason for some of the short song lengths.

Why this name?
I wanted something other than my name and I like the concept of a music cafe, where you can select something different kinds of music to listen to.
Do you play live?
Yes. The last time I played dead, people walked out.
Actually, I used to play about once a month at church, but since our move it's just me and my studio, until I volunteer again at church.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Pretty amazing if you think about it, where indie's can post music and anyone in the world can hear it...more to come with the internet
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
All depends on what they bring to the table
Band History:
Been playing and written for 30+ years but never focus on posting or recording my stuff. But now that there is free postings I can move forward with listing my music.
Your influences?
Way to many to list, but it ranges from Phil Keaggy, Steve Morse, Joe Satriani, Al Demeloa, Lee Ritenour, Gary Moore, Ian Crichton and endless amount of groups, Kansas, Rush, Kings X, Boston, Toto, etc. Oldly enough, some of the stuff I write doesn't like anything that's influenced me...oh well, guess it doesn't have too.
Favorite spot?
Mountains - can't get enough of them.
Equipment used:
Gibson 335-S, Fender Fat Strat, Lotus (road guitar, but really nice sounding single coil), Johnson J-Station (love it), Sonar HS 6XL and sometimes Zoom 505 II.
Anything else...?
Just would like to be able to play more, so I'm limited on what's getting completed and posted. Hoping to get some stuff used by TV/Film so that I can work on the stuff from home.
