3.what kinda music you into, and or play? Blues & Rock mostly, but will noodle around with what ever interests me at the moment. Primarily like to figure out bit's and pieces of all sorts of songs, usually don't have the attention span to get through a whole song end to end.
4.You in a band or just jamming with friends? haven't played in a band since around 1978-9, just a closet hack these days
5.Whats your most wanted gear [that you don't have yet]? All the guitars I've sold over the years (you won't miss the money, but you will miss the guitars...)
6 What is your oldest piece of gear? me

8.Recording gear and or software? Eleven Rack with protools 10
9.Other gear worth a mention? Mesa Boogie Studio 22
10.the day you got it home what was your first impression of the 11 rack and what do you think now?
amazing, astoundingly amazing for the money, recording and sound versatility even more amazing, would have killed to have this sort of thing in the mid 70's.
11.Whats the best way to get in contact with you? send money

My MO: As a kid I aspired to Hendrix, Jeff Beck and Larry Carlton mostly and fusion players coming up. After many years of floating between local bands and gigs and not really getting anywhere, I gave up and went back to college and ended up as a software engineer.
Not a particularly prolific player since then or now. With work and family I'm lucky to noodle a few hours a month. Always plan/intend to do more, esp since lurking around here and other online forums, but never do. Some of you guys are just amazingly talented. It's a lot of fun to see how many guys out there can really play that aren't touring pro's.
Anyway, hopefully after getting a little courage to put some stuff out and maybe getting a little more active on this forum I'll get some more stuff recorded...
