Retired now and Looking to form a band preferably with keyboards but not necessary. I'm a pretty easy going person, no ego, just like playing and having fun. Ideally, I would like to do some stuff from the 70,80,90s such as Toto, Loverboy, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Boston, Steely Dan, Honeymoon Suite, etc.
I've been playing guitar for almost 50 years. I've recorded a couple of CDs but nothing too serious. I like classic rock from the 70's,80's,90's, including Eagles, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Doobie Bros., etc as well as the metal/hair bands from the 80's (Poison, Motley Crue, Warrant, Cinderella, Ozzy, Journey, etc. From the 90's STP, Hip, Cult, Collective Soul, Blue Rodeo, +++. Pretty versatile, have also played top 40, RnB,etc. Have played UB40 to Clapton to SRV, Colin James, a little country too(not really my thing though). Even done Melissa Etheridge, Heart, Pat Benetar, Fleetwood Mac, Sass Jordan, Amanda Marshall and tons others over the years
Also include Queen, Boston, Bon Jovi, Huey Lewis, Rush, Saga, Journey, Stones, Beatles, Pink Floyd, Eagles, etc among the bands I grew up with and covered live.
Have performed acoustic on Sunday afternoons on the patio type gigs as well. Most recently I was in bands based out of Bowmanville, Oshawa and Whitby area. Able to jam anytime during the day, night or weekends. If you want to chat send me a message at 416.625.6025 or redjs1200atgeemaledotcom
