Music, motorcycles, and walking around The City...
Music
I relocated to San Francisco in 2007 and started playing with a band called The Richmond Kings. We recently renamed it, "4 one 5" and it's all very cool with lots of smiles all around.

I love the guys and it's been a blast building this thing to fly. I'm also playing with "Long Tall Blues" with Stan Erhart and Pat Tinling and I'm also lucky enough to be sitting behind the drums for The Dave Abbott Band.

Some of the bands I have been blessed to tour with or do shows with, at one time or another, are The Mighty SuperSuckers, Bonnie Bramlett, Buddy Miles Express, Billy Preston, Warrior, Black Crowes, Iron Maiden, Cheap Trick (and Cheap CHICK), KIX, Dangerous Toys, Billy Squier, Rhino Bucket, Southland, Michael James, The Leisure Wave, David Hallyday and God willing maybe, someday, you.
I think that would be pretty cool....
About me: Simple, honest and probably more direct than I should be.
I would like to think I am brave enough to deal with whatever is thrown at me and come out the other side better then I was going in.
I love music, friends and laughter... and I will never have enough of any of those.
In my CD player at any given time is probably a very diverse collection of music... from Van Morison to Mr. Sinatra with some Clash, Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin and who knows what else thrown in... I like a lot of the so-called contemporary alternative pop/rock music. It's truly all about the song...
Some other things I like are motorcycles, walking around The City and a little conversation in an open air bistro while enjoying a good soy latte as people wander by is a great way to spend a morning. I love San Francisco!!!
Who I'd like to meet: Any one who lives and stands by the truth. You can't change the world if you yourself are afraid of change...
I try hard to be the best "me" I can be...
Speaking of "me", here I am doing a little bashing in Baltimore, summer, 2006
I'm on a vacation and there's nothing else to do for 1 month than some guitar playing and beer drinking, haha! A gig coming up later in the autumn.. maybe a few in the summer too if everything goes well ;)
Thanks a bunch for becoming my friend! There's a ton more music and other cool stuff on my website at www.bjdavis.org! I'd love it if you joined the fan club! Stay in touch and God bless! B.J. www.bjdavis.org
