Ya know what, I’m not going to bother putting bass & drums behind my songs with MIDI, ’cause honestly, I don’t care for the sound of MIDI. I would rather have REAL bass & drums played by real musicians. They can make the songs way better than I can. Plus, I’m not that good with music theory and all that stuff yet, admittedly.
When I get enough songs down and recorded with just me and my guitar, I’ll start putting out musician ads if they want to help me with the band backup behind these tracks. If they’re willing to do it for fun, and not for money. Just a hobby kind of thing. I would like to do this.
Hell, I may as well even form a band of my own if I get enough rock songs, I don’t know. I have good enough professional sounding equipment to play in a band with. I have a good enough P.A., and a couple of electric guitar amplifiers, so I’m all good.
I played with a click track, so I’m pretty sure I got the timing down good enough. I’m really dying for full band songs, I’ve been wanting to do this for years. It’s being worked on.

Kev,
I am as excited for full rock songs from you as I am for the interviews you are preparing. All these years I could hear the rippin’ distortion on “Time Bomb is Ticking,” and I would still be up for recording a lead on that if you wanted. And that would be free of charge, of course. I don’t think I am special enough to deserve payment.
