About me:
I moved to Athens, GA back in 1996 with my band slackdaddy. We released two albums, "Is" and "Supercell". We have another on the way called "Karmageddon". I also play with Kevn Kinney's Sun Tangled Angel Revival as well as Sarah Lee Guthrie and Johnny Irion. I am always looking for an opportunity to play.

Yup, gonna be a jam. Another Blues Angel Jam, @ Spidy's Web, on the golf course. This is a improve jam and we are trying to record every part, separate tracks. If anyone plays or starts a cover tune, you will be asked to leave:) So if you like improve, you are very welcome, if not feel free to come and socialize. We are going to watch the Blue Angels fly that afternoon, and the jam will be from 5pm or so until there is no one left standing, or playing. We are planning on incorporating electric drums and a Roland 2480, so we can track everything separately, but there may be acoustic drums as well. Hopefully there will be a ton of new and unique ideas born. If you are a song writer (lyrics) come on down. All artist welcome, all mimickers shunned, but loved anyway. Hoping to have some extraordinary players there. Gonna be a party no matter what! Hoping to get the B3 going by then. There will be keys, not sure about a PA, but there will be something to amplify drums. Bring your headphones, instruments, amps and beverages... oh and party hats:) Hope to see you there buddies:) directions or questions 706-818-2194
