SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
This is me:
Experienced and mature. Classic Rogers kit and Paiste cymbals from the 70's (602's , 2002's, sound edge) Played in covers bands, tributes, showbands and orchestra pit, from '72 to date.
10 yrs playing in folk and ceilidh bands in the Peterborough area
Spent 3 years as Senior FOH sound engineer for Butlins running 20K + rig and have access to sound rigs.and lights.
Just finished 3 years touring as sound tech for Los Endos (Genesis trib) and remixing on StudioOne the soundtrack of their concert at the Mick Jagger Centre (Dartford) for release on DVD. I mix at home.
I play in alocal blues/rock band and have an electric drum kit and keyboards at home for recording. Occasionally take the eKit out to small pubs where the full acoustic kit wouldnt fit.
