Love playing hard rock, hard blues and tasty leads. My influences are Jimi, Pat Travers, Jimmy Lyons, Ronnie Montrose, Michael Schenker, Frank Marino, Joe Satriani and a whole list of others. I love playing lead and always learned the leads first and the rhythym out of necessity. Now I've grown up a bit and am working on becoming a better player by learning other styles like classical and jazz. I like to think that I'm laid back but can get pretty passionate about certain topics. I enjoy the laid back quiet lifestyle here in Oregon. Don't miss the constant police. fire and ambulance sirens 24 hours a days in Ca. My days of closing down the bars are over but I still like to have a good time. Also enjoy coming up with new recipes and enjoying nice meals at home. Lots of BBQ's The area seems to get a nice diversity of bands, blues, jazz ROCK. Just saw Eddie Money a few months ago. They were just as good as thirty years ago, but I did miss Jimmy Lyons guitar playing. I'm proud of the fact that I have no debt except about 8 years left on my home mortgage, then I'm free and clear.
