Influences
-
I enjoy all kinds of music if it's done well.
Experience
- Age 15 started a band to play CYO's Teen Dances, Band Battles. Played in several bands while in the Army for 9 years. Mostly bars, clubs and honky tonks. Band members got shipped out so often it was quite a challenge to hold a group together back then. After discharge top 40 gigs in Maryland, Maine and back to Mass. Bars and clubs for a number of booking agencies. Went with strictly GB jobs and other functions in the late 70's to 1997. Oldies group 50's,60's and 70's till I hung up my Strat.in 2001.
Looking For
- Like minded people who know the oldies and like playing them. No large ego's, no Diva's, no one who believes they don't need to practice or think they only need to show up on jobs. These days there seems to be a trend for players to play the hired gun for more than one band. I really prefer a commitment from players. We will be doing college & high school reunions, anniversaries, retirement parties boomer birthdays. There are many venues for this music. I'm not interested in doing bars and I don't do open mics, "jamming", or other non paid jobs. I'm interested in people that can sing and or play an instrument. Although I can sequence drums and or bass if needed to keep the money right depending on the gig I have a resource for pick up jobs. Lets go kick some DJ Ass! Let's talk?
