Hey, I've been playing off and on since I took Classical Guitar lessons at age 6 in 1971. Many years off and on including playing Sax in middle school but dropped performing in July 1994 after getting clean and sober. I had played in mostly original bands as the Bass player from 1988 - 1994 when I started recording my own material. I spent 10 years not playing while working, going to school, and enjoying my family. Once divorced a friend gave me a guitar while going to night school and I rediscovered my emotional outlet. Hope to finish an all original CD and perhaps play live again in the future since I've become disabled, grew my hair back (LOL) and am feeling creative :) Peace
