Detroit shredder!!!

About Me

I was born in 1968 in Detroit at Grace Hospital. I started playing guitar when I was 6 yrs old. I started playing Blues and Country and then I made my way to good ole Rock 'n Roll and Hard Rock. Then the heavy hard hitting sound we know as METAL was born and I was hooked! I play about 5 hours a day of personal practice and rehearse with my band 2 nights a week. I play through Marshall and play on Gibsons and Jacksons and have ALL of my guitars loaded with Seymour Duncan metal live wire pick ups. I have been playing live for 21 yrs and still love it today as much as I did when I started.I have opened up for:Warrant, Ronnie Montrose, Jesse James Duprie, Jackyl, LA Guns, Overkill and many more. Some of my favorite places in Michigan to play are Harpos Concert Theatre, The Ritz and the I-Rock Nightclub.I played in bands in Jr High and High school.(covers mostly) After high school I really got serious and studied music theory and composure.(Thats when the music started running through me like wildfire.)I have only been in 3 bands in 21 yrs of playing live, Neverend in the later 80's and Paxton Hood from 1990 until 2006 and now FUSE.I have wrote and recorded 11 albums in my years of jamming.I will rotate songs from the albums i have written on this page.Enjoy the music! :0)Jimi Metal guys layout @ HOT FreeLayouts.com MyHotComments
