I'm a happily married, 71-year-old Army retiree. I spent 21 years in combat boots. I've been playing the drums since 1969 and am still rockin'! Contact me thru george...dot...keck...at...ya...hoo..com

I don't care to listen to or play death metal, hip-hop, opera, or 14th century Gregorian chants. I'm VERY much into improv/jamming. I'm not great at jazz or odd time signatures, but I can try to make you happy. I can really get into Red Dirt/Bluegrass/traditional C&W; for which I can additionally play washboard, spoons, Jews harp, kick/snare/hi-hats. I have a limited vocal range but can sing lead and/or harmony. I suffer from NO stage fright. I have drum cases, a truck, an up-to-date U.S. passport, current internationally required vaccinations and am willing to travel ANYWHERE!

I have a very mature attitude, great sense of humor, can manage my own finances, only occasionally drink (beer) socially, no drugs, am computer/internet savvy. I have my own dental plan, life & liability insurance. All my instruments/equipment are fully insured. I am completely dedicated to serving the song. You want me to play a certain way, I'll certainly try to give you what you want. I can be the band leader or your loyal sideman.

I have enjoyed playing a variety of music genres with over 80 musicians in four countries.
