| Biography | I started playing bass at 15. I had an old Univox beatle bass and played through my dad's guitar amp. I played in a series of garage bands and bars with a little better gear until I was about 25, then life began to get in the way and I made some hard choices. I put away my bass for 19 years, but when my youngest (and last) kid moved out of the house in May 2001 I picked it back up and have been looking for the right gig ever since. I'm old enough to know the right thing will come along and have learned that waiting for the right band is better than working with the wrong ones :) I didn't forget anything I knew during that long absence and am a better bassist now than I was when I put the bass down almost 20 years ago. |
