Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We play clubs and bars around Long Island New York, and for the past 7 years have been a fixture at The Beach Huts, a chain of Tiki Bars located at some of the finest beaches on Long Island, or perhaps in the world.
Your musical influences
First The Beatles. After that so many. The artistry of Pink FLoyd, Clapton on guitar, the vocals of Steve Winwood, the writing of Don Henley, the jazzy sound of Steely Dan. The raw energy of the Stones and Aerosmith. I could go on for days./
What equipment do you use?
Just got a VG Stratocaster. Have had strats forever, but this is cool because of the tones, tunings and that it is still a Strat!. Also have Teles, a Les Paul and a four other stratocasters. 65 Fender Deluxe Reverb, and a Blues Deluxe Reissue. 66 Fender Bassman (awesome)
