About Me

I play guitar. I like life. Here I am. As for the rest of my band, I fired them.

So, anyway, I've been playing guitar about 2 weeks now. Originally, I started out playing Guitar Hero, which I practiced 5 hours a day. I realized that I was capable of playing more than 5 frets pretty early on, but I kept playing Guitar Hero because, frankly, I think it's really cool to get high scores and stuff.

When I made the actual jump to a real guitar, I had already learned everything I could ever need just by screwing around with Guitar Hero and doing the training missions.

Guitar Hero was the foundation for my career and I couldn't be happier. Although, I don't pick up chicks any more since I switched to a real guitar so I might go back to the Guitar Hero ax just for the ladies.

Movie review: Tokyo Drift

For me, movies fit within the typical "good or bad" scale, but sometimes a movie can be so bad that it comes full circle. When this happens a universal paradox is created that I cannot explain. All I ...
