Oh, hell yes. You'd better count me on this scene. I'm a bassist who's been playing for the better part of 10 years now.

My influences are very much like your own: Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes, Slint, Sea and Cake, Cerberus Shoal, Indian Summer, Ethel Meserve, Mineral, Trans Am, and many, many, many more.

I've got solid gear and I'm mobile. Hell, I've even got a line on a potential jam spot if necessary.

Email me or give me a shout at 361-9908.
