I've played music since I was 12 years old. I started out as a drummer, I've always loved the sound of drums.
In my teen years, I switched to guitar, because it seemed that everyone I went to school with wanted to be a drummer, and everyone who did try to play guitar, could not do it very well, and I got aggravated, so started playing guitar myself.
I went through several original bands, most of the time it was a very frustrating experience to say the least, as I always wanted to take our projects on the road, move to California, you know, to try and get some exposure. There was always some reason by other members why this could not happen. Now that I'm older, I've decided to simply write and compose all of my own tunes and promote my ideas alone. This way, if anything was to come up, I could drop everything in a heart beat, and leave or do whatever it takes, no strings attached.Band/artist history
Please see the introduction.Have you performed in front of an audience?Not at the moment, but I do have plans to play live in the near future. If I have to, I will simply play along with my recorded background music. Many musicians do this now days.
Your musical influences
The first rock-n-roll music I heard when I was very young was an album my sister was playing by Johnny Winter. I will never forget the feelings that gave me when listening to his music. I was hooked from that point on.
My influences range from everything from Johnny Winter to Black Sabbath, Kiss, Rolling Stones, Deep Purple, Bach, you name it, I've listened to it.What equipment do you use?
Guitar Rig 4, Live 8, Marshall, PoboyGuitars.Com pickups.Anything else?
I'm really looking to be involved with an active band/project. I do not want to sit around some city somewhere thinking I'm a big rock god, I want to be active and out playing. There's nothing like playing in front of people who love what you're doing. I want that again before I die.All comments (1)
