I'M A DRAGON!!!

About Me

I live to play the guitar. It's my whole life, the one thing that sustains me. Music is one of the most important things in my life. I've been playing for about a decade now, and and I'm not quite as good as I'd like to be. I'm not gonna say I'm better or worse than anyone. Music is not a competition. Anyone who creates a competition through music ruins the point. Music is a form of self expression, a release. All musicians are in it together.

Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are. -Kurt Cobain

When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will know peace. -Jimi Hendrix

Heroes:

First off the bat is Rick Allen. Many of you think so cuz hes a rock legend, but you don't know the whole story. He is the Drummer for Def Leppard, and while they were making their 4th and arguably greatest album, Hysteria, he got into an accident and lost an arm. After that, he went out and got an electric drumset and taught himself to play the drums with one arm. Yea, that's the spirit of rock right there. Keep rocking, and don't let anything stand in your way.
Second hero: Kurt Cobain. He never was a great guitarist, but he was a major social icon to the youth of america. Everything bout him screams rebel. He hated conformity, valued originality, and did his own thing. He shot himself, I don't know if that was a sign of strength or weakness. He Never followed a stereotype, was his own man, and hated conformity, like me.
And Whomever thought of this:
