About me:
Hey all, I'm "Jimmymac" to my friends. That's "Mr. McNeal" to any of you who are not friends.
I have successfully fulfilled my biological mission in life of furthering the Human species by presenting the world with 5 wonderful kids: Megan, Morgan, Jaelyn, Garrett and Riley.
I have a wonderful Wife, Luciana "Chana" and am blessed by my friends and family.
I am absolutely obsessed with blues music and playing the guitar. It's a disease, an affliction and is cancerous to my life, but I just can't help it. I strive for balance, but the music part usually wins out. I thank Chana for not taking one of my guitars and using it on my head while I sleep.
When I'm not preoccupied with my wife, kids, and music (not necessarily in that order) I have to work some. I own a business (it owns me!) in Carrollton Texas. We build printed circuit boards for companies like Lockheed, Harris, Raytheon and NASA. Boring High-Tech stuff like satellites and mars rovers!
Did I mention that I like Music. My band "The Bulldogs Blues Band", www.bulldogsbluesband.com , hosts the "Historic Friday Night Blues Jam" at the Cottage Lounge in Dallas!
Check of some of the new tracks we have been working on!

Who I'd like to meet: Jimmie Vaughan, - I played in a band in Austin at the same time the T-Birds were getting popular. We opened a show at the old Skyline Club in north Austin. My band the Rock-o-diles opened, then the T-Birds went on, and finally Carl Perkins "blue suede shoes" perfomed. Today I'm a real fan of Jimmie V. and he is a real influence on my style of playing.
Buddy Guy- Perhaps I'll travel to Chicago and go to his club.
Duke Robillard- I love this guys musical style
