Hey, my name is Mark. I'm 22 right now, I'm a Metal Guitar Player. My Rig right now is Either a Marshall MG100HDFX 100 Watt Head or a Behringer V-Ampire LX1200H 120 Watt Head, over a Peavey 5150 412 Slant Speaker Cabinet over a Peavey 5150 412 Straight Speaker Cabinet. My Number One Guitar is a '67 Gibson Flying V, Followed Closely by my (Original) 1968 Fender James Burton Pink Paisley Telecaster, Number 3 is my Jackson Professional Randy Rhoads RR3 Flying V (with a Floyd Rose Tremolo), 4 has to be my 1985 Gibson Artist Series Explorer (with a Seymour Duncan Dimebucker Bridge Pickup & a DiMarzio Super Distortion Neck Pickup), 6 is my 1988 Fender Mexican Standard Stratocaster that was Given to me on my Sixth Birthday....& There's Like Another 8 Good Guitars in my Collection that I could keep Naming all-night here...but 10-to-1 you're not really gonna care to keep reading them....

My Interests

I WAS THERE!!! Yeah, it was called the '80s!! Ford was President, Nixon was in the White House and FDR WAS RUNNIN' THIS COUNTRY INTO THE GROUND...I was Slummin' it in this Hole-In-The-Wall town in what is Now-Called "Utah". When Some Feller from Colorado shows up, & starts making all these so-called "Improvements", right?? Before any of us knew what hit us, the streets were RUNNIN' WITH LATTE'...It got so Bad that a Feller who liked to, You-Know...Smoke A Little Grass & Guzzle-Down 15 or 20 Jäger-Bombs, Crow Like A Rooster, & Maybe Challenge the Mayor's Son to a Gentlemen's Duel, was said to be "Uncouth" & "Against God"...More like Bad for Real-Estate Values, Right? So that was it...I had to pack up all my shit and GO...

I'd like to meet:

More Musician, I Love Metal, Beer, Muscle Cars, Punk Rock, Chicks, I'm happy to meet anybody cool....it's a *plus* if you're a Musicians/Artist of any kind & Anyone interested in any of the same kinda shit I am would be cool too...

Music:

...Music is my LIFE. I Could sit here for hours & hours typing pages and pages about music, but nobody would ever want to read it all...my biggest Influences come from Texas Blue & coming a close second to that is Metal...I'm really more of a metal head now a days though...

Movies:

CrossRoads (Filmed in 1986), American Graffiti, Two Lane Blacktop, This is Spinal Tap, Hysteria (Def Leppard Story), the FIRST Matrix Movie (the other two were both BULLSHIT though because the writers made Neo Infallible & that's wrong...he just became the Figure who could DO Anything and Defeat Anyone...)

Television:

uuuh...whatever catches my fancy while I am Watching TV...I like Music & Playing Guitars, Muscle Cars,

Books:

"Caught in the Crossfire" the Stevie Ray Vaughan Biography has to be the best book I've ever read in my Entire Life, I've only read about Half of "Cash" (Johnny Cash's Autobiography, but that is really good too)

Heroes:

My top hero's right now are Mark S Walsh (My Father), George McCann, and Marty Friedman (the ex-Lead Guitar Player for Megadeth), but there's definitely a lot of influence by guys like Randy Rhoads, Yngwie Malmsteen, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Zakk Wylde, Dimebag Darrell, Rocky Cagnoni, Steve McQueen, Bob Falfa (Character from American Graffitti), Evel Knievel, Jeff Emig, Jeremy McGrath
