Guitarman + Musician in Oshawa, ON

SEEKING

ABOUT

Just looking for something fun. I'm a busy guy! I have a full time job, write books, and teach martial arts. So, some days are just plain taken for rehearsal. I love making music, but tired of the people who are just too damn serious and anti-social. It's all about making the best music we can, but having fun! Maybe we play out and maybe we never do. It's cool.

I think I'm at my best when I have a guitar in my hands and I'm singing. A higher vocal range allows me to do justice to songs like "I want you to want me" by Cheap Trick and the like.

I absolutely can play lead guitar and I like doing it. I like it best when I can share duties with another guitar player. I don't want the spotlight every single song. I just want to make good music. In a perfect world, I'd be in a band where another member and I share vocal duties. That can be really effective.

I'm open to trying just about ANY song in any genre. You never know until you try, right?
