A radio station around these parts has started playing "Classic Alternative".... :freak:

I've been ignoring this thread for a while, (hoping it would go away ;) ) hoping it would go away, but I guess its time for me to answer.

 

I play a lot of classic soul....music from the mid-60's to the mid-70's.

 

Some of the songs I regularly get asked to play could be considered classic rock.

 

And if you asked me to play a Stones song from the late 60's, I could do a pretty passable rendition, vocals, dancing around and all.

and here's me in 1971

Otherwise, I am (as someone who wanted me to play with his band for $25 a night just called me)

a paid, soulless sub
who really would rather be playing jazz. :D
