Been playing guitar for a long time. Never was able to find a band to play in growing up. I made a CD for my mother of some praise songs about 5 years ago. I put together a company band that plays once a year at Christmas. It's alot of fun. Maybe I'll record some of that stuff. Also play in a small church praise band called 3rd Verse.

Started with just myself playing at church. Then added my family and a few others. Decided to call ourselves 3rd Verse because it is often left out when singing congregational hymns at church. The group at work started with a group of us wanting to perform at our annual Christmas dinner. It's alot of fun.

Yea, we play at church when we can and at the Company Christmas Dinner once a year. And on occasion with a great church group Voice Of Truth when they call me. I love it.

Aerosmith, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, 3rd Day, Styx, Kiss, 38 Special, Eric Clapton, Lincoln Brewster, Van Halen, Allman Brothers, Pink Floyd, Country and Contemporary Christian.
