Dating Game:   Still Single...But "I could be persuaded."

Getting Started:  My mom and dad had a country music band called "Sunset Rythmn Pals" that played in and around Winnipeg for several years.  I grew up listening to, and eventually jamming with some of our city's best pickers and singers.  My mother sat me down and showed me the basic chords and then I went on to put it all together by ear.  I was 16 when I started gigging, and there's still no end in sight!
