Artist History Tim and I were playing a gig on New Years Eve 2000. I was playing bass and he was playing guitar. Around the middle of the gig, Tim offered me his guitar and he played my bass. We played some beautiful blues. He told me he wanted to be my bass player right then and there. He called me a week later and told me he found us a drummer, Russell Leach (Who happened to be bartending that New Year's Eve).
