Hi!
My name is Wayne Earl, and I'm currently living and working in the San Francisco Bay Area. I've been a lifelong musician, primarily a vocalist, however - tenor, singing for well over 25 years now, some hand in hand, some gathered together in bands..... You get the picture.
I've been pursuing the keyboard seriously for almost two years now, picking one up as a composition tool while attempting to recover from a bad run of health, and loving it ever sense. I have been very recently purchased by a Kurzweil SP4-7, almost by accident. I was celebrating a recent promotion in March on ebay, and while looking for something else, came across a woman selling her sp4-7 at an almost too good to be true price. Took a chance, picked it up, and fell in love with it.
In spite of it all, I remain crunchy in milk.
One day soon, I will play the music on the keyboard that I can sing and write. Today, I play what I can, and sing the rest
My main musical influences are Dream Theater, Nightwish, Rush, Queensryche, Symphony X, Pink Floyd, and dozens and dozens of other genres, bands, composers, and shysters found on stage.
Welcome, Wayne.
Best of luck with your writing - You really have a way with words!
San Francisco is one of my favorite cities in the world. I use to have an apartment on the corner of Polk & Market in the 80s. TZ
