I am retired, from a retail based career. I am a musician for abot forty years. I have played and sung all kinds od music except heavy metal. I love all music, and like people, everyday I can learn more. I have 5 guitars, some twenty years old and rare. I can play piano. and bass, and sang all cover songs in their original key. (that shows range and adaptability) I have written a lot of my songs, rock, pop, country. but I missed my chance, so now I'm a legend in my own mind. to quote Waylon Jennings "I"ve always been a little crazy. it keeps me from going insane." also, johnny winter "sometimes it may be hard to tell, but I'm still alive and well". biggest influences. the beatles. jimi Hendrix. roy Buchanan, eric Clapton, stevie ray. neil with journey, I love hamster but am saddened by all the users either retiring, or going private,,my fav quote; "and in the end. the love you take,is equal to the love you make" (lennon and mcartney) also, I am alive and let live person.i have gay friends, lesbian friends, African American friends. people are people.ihave no preconceived bias toward anyone. as long as no one is getting hurt, or forced, all peole deserve kindness, respect, and freedom. to quote my musical masters; ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE,LOVE IS ALLYOU NEED. that's it folks, carry on.
