I do actually but he lives in Brooklyn and doesn't have a car. He's an amazing guitar player but he's looking for a serious project that you and I dont have time for. I'm looking just to jam and have fun and not be on a schedule. Let em know when you're available!!!
G Man, it was good seeing you last night playing w/ Eddie Holman @ NJPAC. U guys sounded great!! It was the first time you and I were at the same gig and didn't play together. Keep up the good work.
Hey Gary, Good to hear from you. How are you? I really hope to come for a long visit next year and work on my next project as well. I'll definitely let you know when I'll be around (-:
EVERYTHING IS GOING WELL. WORKING ON THAT ELUSIVE RECORD DEAL. I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULD GIVE ME ANY POINTERS OR IF YOU HAVE CONTACTS THAT WILL GET ME GIGGING PROFESSIONALLY? ANY INFO WILL WORK. TRYING TO MAKE A NAME FOR YOURSELF IN THIS CITY IS ROUGH! HOW'S EVERYTHING ON YOUR END?
There was a Rush tribute band "working man" that was going on before us but they cancelled. So we did a whole extra set of Rush. We were a tribute band to the tribute band. We kicked ass. We'll kick the ass of any rush tribute band, especially ones that need more than 3 pieces. Except of course the rush tribute band L.A.W.
