SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
I'm a creative drummer with a good ear for contribution. I like the idea of taking songs "out" (letting them off the leash) live. I think that if your playing live it should never be the same show twice and ... Cover songs should be replaced with Originals as soon as possible. I feel Bands should grow and evolve not repeat themselves musically.
I think that I've done my home work roots wise, and there is good "Modern" Music to be made that has hints of the a players influences

PS: re: clips of music and video
In case your wondering why there are no clips, I simply don't have them to put up, there's a few reasons for that. I have a $4K drum kit and a page trying to change that, believe me if I had them you'd have them.

Influences
Well I'm at least eclectic, ...with the common thread is everything from ABBA to Zappa, and main body of influence circa 1965-1995 with some modern stuff sprinkled in there.
I draw from various pionts of influence of my musical past,
Blues, Soul, Funk, various Rock (southern, classic, hard and alternative)
I'm not so much a "Heavy Metal" guy but I do have a heavy side (say from Zeppelin to STP).
How's that for ambiguity! ;)
