About Me

NO MORE BAND ADDS THANKS! I DONT WANT FRIEND COLLECTORS & RANDOM ADDS. IVE STOPPED ADDING BANDS AS IT BECAME TOO MUCH AND WILL ONLY ADD BANDS I KNOW. DONT ASK ME TO JOIN YOUR GROUP. I do try and answer all messages and speak to the people on my friend list. If i add you leave a message. It's annoying when people want you to add them and say nothing.
Hello my name is Matt and i live in Essex, love music and playing on my guitar. I have been playing guitar since march 2000 about 2 weeks after i decided to leave army training in the infantry. I mainly play Classic rock and Metal but does not mean i can't appreciate other styles of music. I am mainly self taught, took some lessons looking at some theory stuff but could not continue with lessons due to being unemployed at the time so know i teach myself, i may look into doing classical training as its supposed to be good for technique. I currently own 3 guitars, a cheap stratocaster that started on, a epiphone les paul and a Jackson RR1, i want to get an acoustic guitar when i get some spare cash.
When im not playing guitar, i like to hang out with my mates and go to clubs & pubs or go to gigs in London.
I would like to speak to people with same or similar interests. People who also live locally.
Anything else you want to know just ask ;)
I love you for what i am not
I accidently deleted some links and stuff about me, so im still re-adding them here, so links might not be there yet.
Well if your interested in hearing me playing guitar, here are a few links. I recorded these ages ago, i don't have proper recording equipment and i think these recordings are shit.
Me playing along to a backing track of Guns N' Roses - Paradise City. I'm not happy with the sound though and i know its not 100% accurate but close enough, still needs work. I come in after the intro. Paradise City Cover (Playing along to a backing track)
Me playing along to studio version of Crazy Train. Crazy Train Solo studio.
Me playing along to the album version of Sweet Child O' Mine. Sweet Child O' Mine Solo
Me playing along to live version of Crazy Train from the Ozzy Osbourne & Randy Rhoads Tribute album. Crazy Train Solo live.
Me playing along to the 2 solos from November Rain from the Use Your Illusion I album. November Rain Solo's
Me Messing about with some Randy Rhoads stuff with some finger tapping, not that impressed with it. Randy Rhoads stuff
I will add more stuff when ive recorded them.
I bought me an illusion and i put it on the wall, i let it fill my head with dreams and i had to have them all.
You can use your illusion, let it take your where it may, we live and learn and then sometimes its best to walk away.
Old army picture when i was doing first 3 months training when i was 17.
