Rocket to Russia (yes, it was a punk band named after a Wesley Willis song)
The Vaudeville Hooks
The Sheriffs of Johnson County

Ghost Lobby

Bass, backing vocals. Ghost Lobby just released it's third CD, and first full-length, a couple of months ago. If you're in Portland we'll be down there on December 4th. I'm self-taught on the bass after taking piano lessons as a kid. I pretty much suck, but I have an excellent ear, so what I lack in technical ability I make up in playing what's right for the song and sheer ornery groove.

L.C. and the Silver String Submarine Band!!!! It got noticed due to the name.
A 3 piece, 2 on guitars, and me on the bass. We had a drum machine. I didn't sing, and that was a good thing!
Played Jimmy Buffet, CCR, some country, and some folk. Had some real good times doing that.

Played bass in a couple of christian rock bands back in the 90's. We did our own music and did pretty good.

Seventh Seal
Mortal Danger

Nothing since then since I work graves and don't have the weekend off. Plan on doing it again some day. It was really fun, and I miss playing. Sat in with some friends bands and played guitar for them a few times while they were practicing. They practically begged me to join their band but couldn't do it because of work. The local MC forum here has wanted to get a band together for awhile as well.

Started in a band called Conviction.

In 1996 I filled in for a sick guitar player for Warrant (yes, the 80s glam band). Same year, my band opened up for the L.A. Guns in NYC.

Right now I'm taking a break from bands and recording.

My old recording studio at home in NY - I'm making another studio here in FL now. That's my cousin in the pic.

That makes you officially responsible for 80's hair bands. You mus post a picture of yourself with bandannas, parachute pants, and big hair in order to redeem yourself. :neener
