ABOUT

I've been a comic/actor for 20+ years and I'm also a musician i think.
My vision was to put together a band and do 15 songs only, not a 30-40 song 3 to 4 hour set. I wanna play an hour and a half with another band and split the door unless it's a lopsided draw then whichever band who drew more dramatically they will get more funds that evening especially if we're getting paid at the door plus from the bar.
I wanna do 15 songs along with some characters, theatrics and humor incorporated into the show unlike anyone else does. I'm.gonna dress up like Halford and do Halford, I'm gonna dress like Axl Rose and do Axl, and I'm gonna dress like Eddie from Iron Maiden and do Eddie. I might have another character in mind as well. My plan and goal is to get a band together to do 15 songs, let me do my thing and we'll rock the hell out of that audience wherever we're playing and they will never forget us and come back to see us again and again. Honestly if my idea came to fruition I believe we could or should seriously be with some agency to do some unconventional heavy metal/hard rock weddings or private parties and make some good $$$ for our unique, novelty and one-of-a-kind show. NO BAND WILL BE LIKE US OR DO WHAT WE'RE DOING IT'S AN ORIGINAL IDEA. And in the meantime I've been singing with a few good musicians from my town messing around and I have an audition for a band when their band member gets over Covid. Maybe I can bring my vision and ideas to another band, who knows. But that's what I wanna do...I had a group I put together and was working with for about 4-5 practices but our bass player couldn't keep up learning the new songs because he had to drink a 6-pac before practice and then during. Anyway we had 7 of 15 songs ready and then we disbanded because of him. What really sucks on top of that is he had a huge basement to rehearse in which was the best than having to go to a studio. So that's what I wanna do. If you're interested and wanna talk we can speak directly. Thank you.

Just a microphone pretty much if I get with a band I'll buy a pa system or use the person's in the band if possible because I've never been in a band. I've sang at open-jams, benefit concerts and karaoke.
