Started playing while recuperating from a football injury in high school. Learned three moveable chords and gigged as a rythme guitarist 'til I got married and kids started coming along (wonder how that happened?). Didn't play 'til I got scrambled off a motorcycle and was laid up for better part of a year (see a trend here?). Started playing classical to try and recover some right hand function (busted up pretty good). Got good enough to play out (light jazz, backing up singers, supper clubs, etc;) and made a living for ~ 5-years. Recovered physically and went back to real job which involved so much trave it was difficult to maintain music ties. Pretty much gig in my living room for fun.
