Yea come and check me out this summer, im coming to play in LA with Paco and Di Meola this summer.







Or maybe not..;)

However i play some guitar, nice little buddy especially on hangover days, it gets your mind off from the things you did last night..:) I play other peoples songs, especially unplugged picking stuff, for myself. I would like to grow nice fingernails to get clearer tunes out, but cannot because of my work and hobby, which destroys them effectively.

Been playing for 20+ years.  Played metal for ever and a day, now play a lot of classic rock with some contemporary stuff mixed in:

Metal Drummer 15 Years
Have the hearing loss to prove it!
But have played
Blues, jazz, Reggae, and Ska

Lately I have been playing with a group of Lawyers for fun locally, they really are cool guys outside of work and considering thier proffession. I just refuse to play the SkYnArD standards, they get bent out of shape but ohh well..
The best paying gigs I have had have been Reggae and Ska by far.

Been playing guitar since high school.  Haven't played in front of a crowd since college in '89.

Didn't someone on the BBS play in Mindy McCready's band?

Played metal on bass for almost 10 years then switched over to guitar back in 1990 and went from metal to jazz :eek:  that was an eye opener :D  Still playing guitar but I haven't been in a band or played on stage since 1997.  

 Now I just have a little accustic with plastic strings.  Not very good for playing lead but it's great for classical or jazz or blues.

Sorry, I'm on the classical side of things.  I play the piano and the violin but mostly I'm a trained lyric Soprano specializing in sacred vocal music (masses, contatas, requiems, etc).  I have been known to sing popular music on occasion though...but you have to get me tipsy first. :D

I'm a semi-pro trumpet player. I play in a couple of different local orchestras and concert bands, and a brass quintet.

I've been playing the piano for about 25 years.  Mostly classical, with some jazz, blues and contemporary thrown in for good measure.  I've never played in a band, and the only concerts I've given were because they were required by some teacher or another.  I play purely for my enjoyment, and if some family/friends want to listen in, their enjoyment too.

Played guitar and sing (poorly) for just over 2 years.  I am not bad and have played a few spots here and there.  There is a guy that plays in Mindy McCready's band (she is purdy, but as I understand it likes rich hockey players) and he played with Dave Matthews as well.  I wont mention the name unless he does.


I have a Martin Alternative X geetar...i like it.

I play bass guitar a little and I played bass, baritone, trombone and drums in "The World's Largest Non-Nuclear Coast Guard Band" as Sr. Chief King called it.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.
