Guitar driven synthesis

About Me

I really can't figure out why people use the 3rd person narrative(BOB DOLE THIS AND BOB DOLE THAT) when describing themselves and their music,.. oh well..-- I 've been in a few bands over the years, some more successful than others, but I enjoyed playing in all of them. The last band I was in just before I moved to Virginia ,called STATIC CLING, was by far the more interesting of the outfits I had the pleasure to be a part of. It was hard to put this band in a solid definition of generes , due to it's chameleon-like ability to play just about anything it felt like playing or needed to play to get a gig. Static Cling could play REAL country ,Hard edged R&B,Detroit Cobras-like heavy Soul and Rock, Door's , Grateful Dead,and Allman Brother's Jamming, and Pink floyd, Love, and Sun Ra psychedelic pandemonium- All in the same set-sometimes all in the same song!!I was also in the Skeleton Crew(Static Cling) backing up the punk rock goddess Helen Wheels!!( go to www.cellsum.com)(Helen Wheels.com) Helen was a TRUE ARTIST.With the Helen Wheels Band I was able to go to NYC and play CBGB's a few times and meet some great people along the way!! .I've been associated with the following people in some manner ,either on the same stage or jamming :-James Cotton(25 yrs. ago!),Glenn Phillips(Glenn has recorded guitar for our cd), Boston folkie legend Bob Jordan( we played on one of Bob's cd's), the Brain Surgeons(Albert Bouchard), Man-O-War, members of Alice Cooper ,the Dictators, Head East(25yrs ago!) and members of Blue Oyster Cult. I 'm open to collaborating with anyone who wants to try. I've alredy collab'd with some great artists and am always ready to try something different..I find not knowing where the music will take you an exciting adventure..You can also go to zebox.com/rsssyd and check out my more Fripp and Crimson stuff.Thanks to everyone who has commented so far, I 'm sorry if I missed anyone.
