I am a competant rhythm guitarist and front-man. My range is anything from Freddie Mercury/Cliff/Johnny Cash/Green Day/Jon Bon Jovi/Oasis. I am very varied and can also be a showman (Freddie at Live Aid) if required. The last gig I played was in a prison (like Johnnie did at Falsom), now you cannot afford to 'stink' in there! I am through the first round of X-Factor 2009 performing Blaze of Glory-I know that I have what it takes to make the fials! I have all my own gear, but not a PA. Although my amp is a 60's Marshall Super PA stack. I have about 8 guitars, I prefer my Ovation semi-accoustic and my red flying V that I made 25 years ago as a school project.
