Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Still goin' strong after 7 years in Toronto Bars. That's what Ronnie Hawkins did, right?????
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Toronto and area Bars, Jazz and Blues Festivals
Your musical influences
The configuration on these live recordings has such a varied interest. Clapton, John Mayall, Paul Butterfield, Charlie Musselwhite, Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding, 'Old Rock Classics' re-done in a Blues fashion Etc.
What equipment do you use?
This line-up used Peavey, Fender, Dean Markley, Marshall, Traynor Amps and Gretsch, Gibson, Fender, Godin and Custom made Canadian Bass Guitars. We had two bass players and two drummers at one time. Put that together with two lead guitarists -that equals either 'mayhem' or 'magic' --- Both Happened !
Anything else?
Keep live music truly ALIVE. Go out and see a band when you can. Thank You. CottonMouth
