Michael

A lover of Music. Collector and musician at heart. Played guitar since the mid 80's when I learned that infamous surf hit Pipeline, and the classic Walk Don't Run. Surf rock was my inspiration, all by the likes of The Ventures, The Shadows, Duane Eddy, The Astrounauts, Wes Dakus & The Rebels, Chet Atkins and Many Many others. The heart of my love of music centers around the British Rock of the 60's. The Beatles are definitely the tops, but followed very closely by the likes of The Animals, Gerry & The Pacemakers, The Searchers, The Hollies, and on and on.Been in many bands that have had as large a difference in sounds as my interest of music. Not one band have sounded like the last, always different with more mature knowledge and combined sounds. My philosophy is you never learn by staying the same. The greats never stayed the same, they always changed up, matured and grew. You've never learned all there is to learn. There is always more to learn.My goal is to get back into playing with a band in the nearest future. I currently miss the thrill and love of playing music for a live audience. So any one out there needs a half decent guitarist in the Toronto area, my dates are very open.
