I have been writing songs for quite a while. Much less so as I get older. These follow many different genres in rock and folk. The music here is from a variety of "audio notebooks" and highlights the basic sound. I have used single track analog, multitrack analog and digital. Sometimes when I feel like it, I actually play in public.
I currently own and use several instruments ranging from my Fender Mustang, Casio electronic guitar, CZ-101 keyboard, mandolins, Epiphone Les Paul Jr., and Ibanez acoustic. Percussion is usually done the way Eddie Cochran did it, with a shoe box with a mic inside.
My influences include the usual suspects with emphasis on Buddy Holly, Hank Williams, Elvis, George Jones, Dion, Dylan, and, of course, Waste Management. Did I leave out the great Paul Vernot, master of the early Rock n Roll genre? If the Internet is working correctly, Tish and Snookie will hit on this page:)What equipment do you use?
Audacity to remix older recordings, accoustic Ibanez, Fender Mustang, Les Paul Jr, Cardboard Box drum kit, harmonica, mandolinContact

Everyone know that David Thrope (The Goose) invented what was to become punk rock back in 1972 with the Porno Rock Review. This was the first band that featured Tish and Snooky. Unfortunately, no one is going to verify sources on the Internet, but I swear, with Al Gore, the Inventor of the Web, as my witness, that The Goose should be inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame
