About Me |

Myspace Backgrounds Hmmm, what to write? It's funny how we can waffle on most subjects, but when it comes to ourselves, the subject dries up!!! Well, I've been a home guitar player for too long now, so its about time I got off my backside and get myself out there (wherever that means!!!) I love my guitars and love composing/playing instrumental pieces as well as lyrical songs. Since I've joined myspace, I have received friendship and encouragement from a good many people, to them (they know who they are) A big thank you! I have also formed an acoustic Duo With Stoo Nicol. We go by the guise of Cross the Border. Weve played several gigs together already and are planning even more in the near future On a Wednesday Night 8pm GMT, I also present a show for AF Collective 'Live' Radio on 365.com. We aim to play the best signed and Unsigned music that we can find! |
