Información
I'm a musician from Dublin. I've been playing guitar since i was 12. I have been very fortunate to have played and toured with many noted musicians and artists such as Brian Robertson(Thin Lizzy), John Norum, Bagatelle, The Corrs, Springbreak, Whos Eddie, Magnum Opus to name only a few. I am currently touring with Riccardo Cocciante and i also play guitar in a kick ass rock outfit called Knucklehead. I listen to everything from blues, jazz, metal, progressive(i hate that term!) and classical. I play Vigier guitars and i am endorsed by this particular company. My hobbies and interests aside from music are Art, Space, Lucid dreaming(sounds weird but its really interesting) and boozing. I'm not a huge book reader but i like Steinbeck, Orwell, Hemingway and guitar magazines:) . I like people who have simular interests or people that are down to earth and cool. I also have an unhealthy interest in Star Wars and i love to nip off to Venice when i get the chance.
