I have been a life long fan of Status Quo from
the days of matchstick men to the present day, i like
songs from all decades and not just the seventies .
I have been playing in bands for about toomenny years
but not always on the Guitar, i started playing drums when
i was just six and i have never looked back
and i have enjoyed every minute of it.
I also play the Bass Guitar and Keyboard(a little) and love
helping other people to get better at being Musicians or singers
The guitars i use for Straight as Quo are three
apple green telecasters put together by me all fitted
with velvetune machine heads and Fender
noiseless pick ups.
Guitar amp- well there is only one brand of guitar amp that
i know of and that is Marshall, the one i use is
the avt 150 combo with extension cabs(Rocking)
I use Rotorsound yellows 10 guage strings
and Jim Dunlop picks .73mm guage.
My favorite song has got to be Lonely man from the Quo album
but there,s that many to choose from these days.
Album! well thats got to be Aint Complaining, i remember doing
a support slot for Rick & Francis chat night a few years ago
and they said on the night that they didnt think that they
had recorded there best album yet, mabye if we asked them now
they might say Aint complaining eh!
The silliest thing i did at a gig was forgetting about
the pyrotechnics(flash bombs)and nearly losing my face
Ambition! same as everyone else of course to be megga loaded
(be a few years yet eh!)
