# About me
Music is my absolute passion - I've been into music since I was 4 and began playing guitar when I was 8...piano, bass, and drums soon followed after a few years. I started writing my own songs at 15 and been in different cover bands since I was 18. Now, in my late 30's, the fun of playing music has not subsided one bit.From 2009 to 2011, I had four bands...sometimes simultaneously: Big Lips (a Rolling Stones tribute), Be Here Now (an Oasis tribute), Ham and Mustard Shake (a Stone Temple Pilots tribute), and an original band called Union Jack. I had a lot of fun in all the bands, but I had the most fun with Be Here Now. To portray Noel Gallagher was awesome. I've always loved Oasis and to have had a tribute band to them was actually one of my dreams come true. And yes, "Liam" and I did bicker on stage...keeping true to the actual Gallagher brothers. =P In 2011, I had the pleasure of being in a Beatles cover/tribute band. We played the music true to form but we didn't share exact vocal duties as the real Beatles. In Dec. of 2011, I was asked to fill in as bassist for a Foo Fighters tribute band for one of their shows. They were called the Foo Fakers and I did get video which is on YouTube. In 2012, I took a break from playing in bands; I tried to get back into in 2013 but with no luck. Currently, I'm trying to form my own Beatles tribute/cover band. Maybe 2014 will work out. These days, however, I'm doing more writing of my original material and creating "full band" productions in Guitar Pro.
