I'm a thirty year old music freak, raised by another music freak. I bought my first guitar when I was 23, and I've been playing since I was 25. I grew up watching my dad play in a few bands, and helping him figure out the lyrics to the songs that they covered - primarily Southern Rock and Blues. He sang, played percussion, and blew a damn good harp. His mother was a lounge singer in her 40's, and when she was in her teens, she sang for the big band that her father played saxophone in - they even cut a few 78's.
No wife, no kids, no worries. I work in a metal shop, building commercial grade lawnmowers. As long as I have friends, family, music, and beer, life will be good.
