ABOUT

I was a guitarist in a band prior to this and played only two gigs but obviously we were descent enough to top a Battle of the Bands event. I am a constantly growing guitarist, I am constantly learning and adapting chops. I have been playing guitar on and off for the last 14 years but in the last 2 years I have actually been improving m so it's been a very slow start but I'm getting there. I am happy to take a back seat and play rhythm and I would actually prefer to be with a guitarist better than me, so I can learn more as I go. Examples of what I can do can be found on YouTube.com:

I would enjoy being in a band that has an appreciation for 80s hard rock or even some 80s metal. I would like to co-write and contribute, and be a part of an equal-split band with no egomaniacs, so everyone can enjoy it. If you want me to join your "solo project" forget it, I've done that once and I'll never do it again. I want to join or form a band!

I have my limitations so I would like to use the band experience to help develop my skills musically, and possibly jam once a week.
