When I graduated from high school‚ back in 88’‚ I thought of myself as a pretty hot guitar player. I moved to Portland‚ Oregon and put together a groovin’‚ all­original‚ experimental fusion type funk band. Man‚ we were the shit! But alas‚ between the brown stuff our drummer was flirting with and the alcholic tendencies of our singer (and me to a certain extent)‚ I suppose we were perceived by the buisness as flakey and unemployable. I found myself working a day job that I hated. My brother‚ whom I originally moved to Portland to live with‚ was the bass player for a classic rock cover band. When their guitar player quit to move to Montanna ­ his idea was to escape the din of city life ­ I was asked to join. It was an easy extra few hundred bucks a week‚ so I took it. The inevitable problem of double booking occurred and I ocassionally had to choose between my *dream­band* and the cover band (when I couldn’t get someone to fill in for me). Eventually‚ the easy money stole me away from what I had originally moved out there to do ­ create great music. I played in the cover band for a couple of years before I couldn’t stomach the covers any more. But the moment had passed me by and I didn’t go back to doing originals. I moved back home to the midwest and went to college.
