ABOUT
Guitarist.
Been playing for about ten years. Electric and acoustic, lead and rhythm. I am talented and dedicated. I can read music, and play almost anything by ear. I am an excellent backing-vocalist. I can also play the piano (grade 8!!!). I can therefore also basically play keyboards, although I'm not interested in (or at all experienced with) fancy synthesizers and patches and all that nonsense.
Looking to form or join a mainly-covers band or just meet like-minded musicians and jam. Almost any style considered. Not Country though. Will write one day, some riffs and chords already coming together, but would like more experience first.

Influences
Mainly Brian May and Eddie Van Halen, but little bits from everywhere. I basically learnt to play by copying loads of people, monkey see...
My favourite bands are Queen, Muse, Smashing Pumpkins and Radiohead, and I also like Van Halen, Rush, David Bowie, Elton John, ELO, Wheatus, Cream, The Darkness, Bon Jovi, Guns 'n' Roses, Blur and loads more.
EQUIPMENT
I use an American Strat and a Yamaha acoustic.
When I say I can play keyboards, I don't actually have any of my own; nor does my ability to sing backup mean I actually own any mics. Guitar gear I am fine with, of course.
