Just moved to Lakeland from NJ and looking for other musicians to jam with. Have friend in Plant City who would be willing to play drums (main instrument) or guitar/bass. Nothing serious at this time. Just jam and see where it goes. Have pro gear and potential practice space.

Musical Influences & Inspiration

Been playing 40 years. Mostly alternative stuff. Most recent band Foo Fighters cover band but I always prefer to have variety. Currently listening to Bumblefoot, Mammoth WVH, and things similar. Influences are primarily heavy like Black Sabbath, Megadeth (was a teen in the later 80's) but also love stuff like Eagles, Cake, RHCP -anything that has a good groove or is funky. Favorite guitar players would be Bumblefoot, Marty Friedman, John Fruscianti along with the obvious like Jimi, Eddie, Page, Randy etc... Ultimately I love a well written, catchy song (Beatles anyone?). Like to write originals.
