Well, this'll be a long shot, but I figure it's worth a go....

I'm trying to accumulate some cash to pay for recording sessions (yes, I'm finally getting serious about cutting an ArteK cd), and would like to offer my services as a fill-in bass player over the next few months.

I do play some solo gigs and with Red Devil Lye, but like many have noted on the board, it's been a bit thin. So if anyone's looking for a bass player for a one-off or short-term couple of dates, please let me know.

I'm perfectly happy doing my solo thing and Red Devil Lye, so I'm not looking for a permanent thing.

Lots of people on the board have heard me play, and you can hear some clips on my Web site and the Red Devil Lye page:

I specialize in blues and roots style music, but have played rock, pop, country, folk, and even fiddle music. I can play upright and electric, I have a car, I am reliable, reasonable gear and attitude, no heavy metal hair, but I'll wear a hat. :-)

OK, Wayne, thanks. I'll call you tomorrow.

BTW, for anyone else, you can contact me by email by clicking the Contact link on my Web page:

Oh, yeah. I promise I won't talk about politics on the gig. ;-)

Would that be irascible liberal? I don't believe I've ever been a racist, aside from Spike Lee assuming I just can't help myself.

Thanks, Jeff.
