I plan and book corporate special events, and the entertainment required for them. Before getting into this line of work, I was a gigging musician and band leader for many years.

I can't carry a tune (vocally) if it had handles on it....so I lean towards playing instrumentals, or accompanying vocalists who CAN sing.

Given that I am a perfectionist by nature, somewhat of a control freak, and mildy obessive compulsive (ie: if I walk into someone's home and see a picture on the wall that isn't quite straight - regardless of by how little it's off, I'll straighten it -ie: and I eat the red Smarties last, and ie: I peel every shrimp on my plate before eating it.)

........Fingerstyle and fingerpicking appeal to me enormously....the busier my fingers are, the happier I am....but I try to be tasty, and as Rick is fond of saying ''Don't show them every lick you know, in one solo or tune."

I enjoy creating order from chaos.
