In 1969, I was playing guitar in several rock bands that toured central Florida.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was a guitar player first off.
First concert I ever went to was a group called The Yardbirds. Eric Clapton is the lead guitarist.
I was playing a Fender Telecaster when I first joined.
I'm also performing regularly in Southern California with two bands. As a solo artist doing acoustic sets and a member of the Jenerators, my rock n roll band that has been around for a long time now.
I was playing in other rock bands. Any of those bands didn't last long.
Guitar gigs were everywhere in the '50s, and I started diddling around so I could keep working. Playing honky-tonk, simple stuff. I took a few gigs with an organ band that put me out front.
I started playing guitar at, like, 12 or 13 and just rock bands mostly. I had a punk rock band and hard core bands and all that.
I started out as a guitarist in the early '80s.
Before moving to Pennsylvania in 1999, I played bass in a newsroom rock band in South Florida for several years.
Starting in the mid-'80s, I played in a band called Meat Joy, and we made our own record, toured.
