In my first band "Montenegro" we opened for Chaka Kahn and Rufus, The Commodores,Rose Royce,LTD,Michael Henderson,Roy Ayers,New Birth,The Brothers Johnson,Mother's Finest,Larry Graham,etc.

- Met Jaco Pastorius@17 when we opened for Wayne Cochran & the C.C. Riders. He was so kind to us,while visiting in the dressing room and even checked out my first Fender (65'Pbass). At 55 I'm blessed to be the band director@my church and am in the process of co-founding a music academy for youth.
