I'm a 60 year old retired doctor who has played guitar since the age of 10. I've been with a number of bands through the 70s and 80s, then a break with study, family etc., before linking up with like minded "classic rockers" like myself over the past decade. I left my last band (Crime Scene) when I moved from Sydney to Thirroul last year, and am looking to link up with some local muso's to continue the journey. Love classic rock from 60s, 70s and 80s, with the odd "modern" tune thrown in.
