I've actually found myself a paying gig. Can you believe it!?!? The lead guitarist of for a local duo retired to Florida and I was asked to replace him. I've been spending a LOT of time learning a pile of songs that are new to me. We did some free things as a trial run. Last week was our official debut and it went well. We were well received. This was a relief for me because the guitarist I've replaced is a phenominal player, so I was concerned about filling his shoes. I can't play like he does, so I just play like I do...I make it work and people seem to like it.

So if you'd like, check out the links for some highlights of our debut performance. I'm having the time of my life...it's a dream realized for me. The support and instruction I received here was a big part helping me get here. A special nod to Anders whose advice has helped me tremendously. Anders' approach to the guitar and music is also very inspiring. I thank you all!! I hope you enjoy watching and listening.
