More About Tim21078

Short story... Life long music...
My brother and I got together as often as we could to "pick and grin" for many years until he suddenly died a few years ago. Since then I have tried to play and sing alone, but it just never feels right. Maybe by sharing here I can get over that, and get back to music.

Fun Stuff about the Artist

Life on the Street

Never performed on the street. That is unless you count Christmas caroling through the neighborhood with the kids.

Embarrassing Moment

I played sax in a 60's soul band and one night, during a a freezing rain storm, our singers didn't show up for a local college dance. I was a bit altered and agreed to sing a few of their songs. Bad, very, very bad.
Several friends from my school were there to see us perform... we sucked. I always felt bad for the folks in the audience. They came out in awful weather and were rewarded with an awful show.

My Instrument

The first guitar I bought for myself got caught in a flood during our first night out tent camping across country in '77. After we found it downstream and dried it off, it was fine for a few days, then it split about a foot across the bottom side. I glued it together and used it for the next 26 years in my kindergarten and second grade classrooms. Now Im a retired teacher and that guitar is next to the stove, unstrung and officially retired as well. My wife bought the big box Guild (D-35) I use in the videos seen here later that autumn. It was much more than we could afford, but you gotta love a woman like that!
