Hello,
I am a so-called musician from Saskatchewan, Canada. I don't really have a band. There is just me and I bring in a friend of mine (Rob, AKA Dirty Sanchez) to do some extra guitar parts. We've been friends for about 23 years and seem very compatible in recording. I appologize for the poor quality of my recordings. They are just a reeeeealy rough first run of a demo. I just thought I'd post them to see what people though of my songs. Please don't judge by the sloppiness ;)
Band/artist history
played in several wanna be cover bands (booo)
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I have in the past. I haven't played live in quite a long time. I love the nervous feeling right before you start, and the rush when it goes away.
Your musical influences
Well,
I grew up listening to Crue, GnR, Poison and the rest of the 80s hair bands. Alice Cooper, Huey Louis, Black Sabbath, Ozzy with Randy and also Zakk. Later on I came into the heavier scene thanks to some hardcore fans. Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Pantera, Sepultura and the like.
Anything else?
Basically I like my songs to be rock with good melodic chorus lines. Nothing too difficult, I hate when listening to music is like work. I have the utmost respect for people who write very involved music, but it's just not my cup of tea.

I listened to "Crush" .Thought it had a Mick Jaeger meets George Thorougood with a pinch of Metallica (it might be all that beer I drank). But hey... I enjoyed it.
Curiously,what are using to record with?
Feel free to post any comments on here..
thanks
