Rhoades D'Ablo: Axe Victim, Beer Fatality

I sold my soul to Satan...on E-Bay!!!!!

About Me


I play guitar, been known to front a band or 3, produce bands, write songs and drink alcohol! I'm currently playing with MATT BEGLEY AND BITTER WHISKEY .
I play through vintage Fender amps, a '66 Showman, which I use to drive a rare '71 Marshall slant and a '68 Super Reverb, which was recently "black-faced" by Eric Gard, in Austin. I have a 50's era Magnatone Lap Steel that I abuse through a Fender Princeton Reverb. I play Fender, Gibson, and Hamer guitars, and I'm always a sucker for effects...So enough about me...................
Okay, so here's the deal.....if you are racist, a homophobe, Bush supporter, or just generally closed-minded, go somewhere else......far away from here! If you have a band that I never heard of, and I've never seen your band, you know I'm not gonna add you, unless you take the time to read this and message me... I'm not here to have 50 thousand "friends", I am here to re-connect with old friends, meet new and interesting people ( you know who you are! ), and chill out with music that I'm wanting to check out. This page is not a billboard for anyone, that's why I have a band profile......okay?
Good......now, let's rock like fuck!!!!

My Interests

Drinking, music, sex, drugs, horror films and fiction...no Anne Rice, thank you!

I'd like to meet:
