Just gotten back into drumming and have been working on my skills for about 7 months now after a long lay off. I LOVE PLAYING.

Steadily improving, hard working and dedicated drummer looking for any project that sounds interesting. I have interest in any type of music in existence, but I am mostly a drummer in the rock vane. I can roll with any music from classic metal such as Black Sabbath to 1980s metal such as Metallica. I also like influences as varied and versatile as REM, Jesus and Mary Chain, Bad Religion, Pennywise, Megadeth, Live, AFI, Cream, Bob Dylan, INXS, Jefferson Airplane, Byrds, Skid Row, John Cougar, Soul Asylum, Screaming Trees, Nirvana, Pixies, Slayer, Buddy Holly, Janis Joplin. You Get the drift yet? I love it all. I also love Jazz, Blues, Country Music as well, but have no experience playing any of that.
I am into covers or originals. I have to admit doing originals is a lot of fun, but understand the business of playing covers. Again, I have absolutely no pre-conceived notions on what I want to play, but if you’re looking for a drummer who is dependable, has a mature outlook on life, and just wants to play music give me a shout.

Influences:

My personal influences as a drummer are: Lars Ulrich of Metallica from 1982 to 1991, Ginger Baker of Cream, Dave Lombardo of Slayer. Also love the drumming of Elvin Jones, Dave Weckl, Mike Portney, and Neal Peart but I can only dream of playing like those guys.
As a drummer I probably am a combination of the styles of Lars Ulrich during Metallica’s heyday and Dave Grohl. Dave is a heavy handed drummer and his playing on the Nirvana song “Drain You” they did on MTV Live one time reminded me of me, although I don’t have the talent that he has, but you get the point.
Since I’ve been out of the loop for a while I am still getting my chops back to shape, and in the last few months have really improved.

Equipment List:

Pearl Export 7-piece with: 14" hat, 15" Zildjian Custom A Series Crash, 18" Custom A Series Projection, 16"Zildjian A series efx cymbal, Sabian AA rock ride 22", and 12” and 14” inch ZHT Zildjian crash cymbals.
I use Evans heads, Ludwig double kick pedal, and Vic Firth 5B sticks with nylon tips.
Will be getting a new kit by years end, either the Gretsch Renowns, Luddys Classic birch or some other un-named kit
