Hi all,

It's getting more difficult to find venues and discussion boards for "oldies" music!
I have been involved this genre of music for quite a while, actually it's been about 50 years!
I started out doing a capella on the street corners of The Bronx New York City with various street groups. I purchased a set of drums in the early 60's and hooked up with a duo, a lead guitarist and a rhythm guitarist thus making it a trio, and we performed together for a year or so.
Then I joined an oldies performing group which I remained a member of for nine years.
After the group disbanded I began free-lancing. This is what I still do as of today.
I built my website for two purposes. One is to have a historical record of what I have been doing musically for the last 50 years. The other purpose is to keep my "shingle" hanging for opportunities of "standing or fillin in" with pro performing groups of the best music that ever was.
The era of the music I perform is 1958-1963
I have a website which I use for the purpose of making my abilities and availability known. The URL is: http://www.theoldiesguy.com
