1. The background .... sorry, just too 1990

2. Why are you not using more of the screen? While fixed width sites seem to be 'all the rage' right now I look at it as a waste of 'canvas' that makes you bunch up everything

and two things that are MAJOR pet peeves of mine:

1. links that are still active even though you are already on that page, it confuses people ... just annoys me to no ends

2. Music that automatically plays on the page and there is no way to shut it off! Nothing bothers me more (especially if I have my volume way up listening to CD) and all of a sudden I get blasted with some background music from a site. Given them a way to shut it off!

lastly its just seems a bit too "monochrome" for lack of a better term, too many dark colors ... that might work well for a heavy metal act but not a blues band (at least not in my mind)

Again just constructive criticism from someone that does this stuff for a living.
to add to DC_Daulton's post..this is not to put you down, but to help your site...

1-I really do not like how the navigation isn't consistent..I also build web pages and for me, a consistent look is a must....

2-I also agree that automatic playing music is annoying, but damn does the guitar work sound good..maybe put a simple media player on the page and allow visitors to select whether they want to hear the music while they browse or not....

3-The photo gallery page is too long IMO...try putting maybe 5-10 photos per album then allow users to click a link to open all the photos for the album

4-Make your mailto in your footer 'clickable'
EX. <a href="mailto:Affordablesite@gmail.com">Text goes here</a>

5-all the links are taking me to a different page layout....you must be currently upgrading the site or it's just that inconsistent.....if you need any help, I'm sure some of us can help you out...I have some down time for the next 2 weeks, so shoot me a PM if you need help...also, Rocket Foot does some AWESOME web graphics if you need a good background.
