Bass Guitar.

ABOUT

Experienced performer of no fixed haircut... will play anything as long as it's with people who, like, you know, get the vibe, man.... or at least love playing live, don't get too hung up about stuff but can keep it tight... even if it's not actually what we rehearsed! in 30 years of playing (since I was 11 - I'm not that old!) I have amassed a lot of kit and like to have lots of hitty things around me on stage... the impressive look detracts from the fact that I'm not the World's most exciting player... but very steady and dependable.... a bit like Carl Palmer, but with a personality (well, almost!)

Influences

where to start? from Genesis to Van Halen passing Level 42, 2-tone, Rush, the Police, ELP errrrr ABBA (don't knock it, they knew how to craft a good song!) and east towards the setting sun and the huge illuminated sign that spells PUB.

EQUIPMENT

Loads.... I have 2 Pearl kits, my stage kit is a 7-piece MLX and my practise kit a 9 Piece Export, both with a range of crash / splash / china cymbals, about 7 per kit... Octobans, Simmons pads for eFX (I also have a fully expanded Roland TD6 / TD20 for really small spaces)(and a full Simmons kit in case you ever want the proper 80's look) bongo's, conga's, timbales, own amps, mixing desk, in-ear monitors, crisps and a white wine and fruit pastry for the lady....
