I have been playing and writing songs since I was 9. I played in various bands for years and also maintained an 'alter ego' solo life. In the end I got tired of gigs and cover bands and decided to strike out on my own. The rest will be history one day!Have you performed in front of an audience?I like playing live when it's going well..I have had some funny moments at gigs and this is a fave: I was being pestered by someone to play 'a request' all the way thru performing a song. It was maddening. I eventually finished the song and asked the guy what he wanted to hear. 'Oh, anything', he replied and wandered away into the crowd!
