ABOUT

Semi-retired guitarist and occasional bassist with wide ranging tastes, open to playing most genres of music. Ideally looking for drama-free musicians to jam/gig with. Happy to play guitar or bass, also somewhat interested in making weird noises on keyboards, although I have no training in that area :)

I can be contacted by human beings who can successfully interpret "linearised at gee mail dot com".
