I played in bands many years ago, had the van, pa, lights, etc and played the clubs in the northwest. I stopped when jobs and life commitments took over. I want to get back into it again in a casual way and see how it goes. Enjoyment is the number one goal.
I've got Faith electro acoustic guitars, 6 (my main guitar) and 6 string Gretsch and Telecaster (home made). My voice is a little deep but I can knock out some tracks well.
My background started in classical guitar so finger picking is very natural, I'm not a soloist lead guitar player of any virtue.
I play through a Line 6 L3t (1400w) pa speaker which is fantastic, a Shure condenser mic into a TC harmonic voice live3.
I have a demanding job but weekends are free and if the band & people are right I would be committed to rehearsals on a regular basis.
I guess I'm after joining/forming a band of two/three/four? Acoustic songs mainly. Good mates who really enjoy playing live again.
I'm 53 but look and think 40 ha - I wish!
I've listed a crop of songs that kind of sum me up and match my voice characteristics but, I'm very open to all sorts. I do tend to play around with them to suite.
