Been playing since I was 15 but really didn't get serious til my mid 20's and focused on blues/blues-rock music. I didn't get into my 1st band til I was 40 but now I enjoy playing out from time to time especially with the band I'm currently with The Jersey Beat.
Music is expression, enjoyment whether you're listening or playing you find something in it
Musically.. Keith Emerson and Ritchie Blackmore because they always went for it and never acted like it was an act.
Just picking up your instrument and getting lost playing things, and something will come out of it.
As long as everything is working and the band sounds good then I feel great .
Something new...need time to check out more
Trying to figure either a song or a certain chord or lick and not getting down right.
