I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm the guitar player and singer in a band called The Pickups. For the last few years I've also had a band called Lucas, where I sing and play guitar. Both bands feature original songs that I have written. I also work as a side musician for Thornetta Davis, Chef Chris and the Blue Plate Specials, The Strange, occasionally with Whithey Morgan and the Way Cross Georgia Farmboys, and a host of other local Detroit Artists.

My Interests

All things about music. Guitars, the outdoors, fishing, hunting, history, good food, eithnic foods, cooking, good movies.

I'd like to meet:

Eric Clapton, B.B. King, Bob Dylan, Clint Eastwood, any veterens of World War II. If by magic, all of the greatest musicians that played hard and died young.

Music:

Man, where do start! Rock n' Roll (there is such a thing, though many have forgotten about it, especially the "Roll" part), Blues, Jazz, Country (I prefer old country), Americana, hell just about anything that has good songwriting and good musicians! The Pickups. Lucas.

Movies:

The Outlaw Jose Whales and other Clint Eastwood movies, Band of Brothers, Spinal Tap, Come September, Better off Dead.

Television:

The History Channel, AMC, A&E, The Discovery Channel, PBS, Comedy Central.

Books:

I'm a big fan of Autobiographies and biographies on musicians, history books, and the occasional novel.
