ABOUT

Prog drummer, hoping to find other musicians of similar age and influences, preferably bass and keys, for a long term death-do-us-part type of association. Excuse the melodrama, but I want to keep playing until they 'pry the sticks from my cold dead digits'.

I have been playing off and on since '69 and see no reason to quit, even though this is not the way I earn my living. I'm not a great fan of playing covers and prefer to work on original material.
