I am dedicated to play local gigs playing rhythm and lead guitar. I also play bass. I am very adequately equipped for any band situation. I don't read music. I play by ear. I have to use a tuning method I invented because of the lack of mobility in my left hand. I am 62 years old and have a deep knowledge of late 60s through early 90s rock and country. I can also sing some background vocals. Even if I don't know a song, I'll learn it. I don't engage in power/control contentions or pissing contests. I will not accept negative criticism, only positive suggestions. I only give positive constructive feedback. I play with the band, not on top of the members. I enjoy cohesive relationships that uplift everyone. Otherwise the band relationship is bogus and I will walk away. Music is a joy to play. People who play music should want to enjoy it.
