I am here for Friends

About Me

I started playing music as a guitar player in 1963. It was with a folk group called the Flinthill Singers. I've since played bass in jazz, rock, salsa, blues and show bands.Now I'm back to playing guitar and would like to put my own band together.I'm 61 so I'm not playing any hip hop or gangsta rap. But I'm open to many different types of musical styles. I don't want to make a big deal out of the band, I just want to play and enjoy music.If you're a bass player, guitarist, drummer or vocalist living in the Hudson Wisconin, St Paul, White Bear Lake or Stillwater area, shoot me a MySpace e mail and lets talk.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Maurice White of Earth Wind And Fire. My fantasy is I run into him at Starbucks and he asks me to sit in for Verdine White at a concert in Minneapolis. Same fantasy with John Mayer calling to sit in for Pino Palladino or James Taylor calling and asking me to be one of his back up singers for the night. I'd like to hang out with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence and actually Fit In, Play one blues guitar song with Eric Clapton, Meet Winston Churchill, Benjamin Franklin, Jack Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr without being dead, Get drunk with Lewis Black, play golf with Michael Jordan/Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus or Jack Nicholson. I'd probably like to also be the older romantic love interest playing opposite Paz Vega in some Harrison Ford type movie.
