Excerpt from his blog, The
Stagemaster Project . . .
"It's kind of a long story but I'll try to boil it down. First off let me
say that I just turned 52 years old and I have been playing guitar since I was
15. By the time I was 17 I could play the entire Santana Abraxas album verbatim.
Ever listen to Alice Cooper's "Killer" album? I could also that entire album
note-for-note by the time I was 16 or 17. These are only a couple that I
remember, but suffice it to say I've been involved with guitars for most of my
life. My first serious guitar was a '73 Strat with a maple neck.
About the only kind of band that I haven't played in would be a jazz group. I've
pretty much played everything else; country, disco, top 40, all genres of rock
almost, funk, etc."
Currently, Tonepot a.k.a. Tom Goodson, is playing in his own band, "The Tonepots" who play in and around Tampa, Florida. The band consists of Tonepot himself (guitar, bass, vocals), Chuck Fernandez (guitar, bass, lead vocals), and his brother Sandy Fernandez (drums).
The Tonepots play a variety of music to suit as many audience tastes as possible. Don't be surprised to hear a ZZ Top cover followed immediately by a classic Hank Williams tune.
