Since as early as I can remember, I have been fascinated by music. I would have always sang along to the old gospel records in the car as my parents would drive us to Millisle for ice-cream and rides during the summers of my childhood years. Innocently, I never imagined that this would be the start of an unquenchable desire to, one day, have a song or two of my own...
Eventually, I managed to convince my parents to let me have my own guitar... a starters set, including electric guitar, strap, amp, plectrums, tuning pipes, and a tutorial CD... and it was mine!
Over the next few years, I learnt how to play this guitar, and eventually moved on to an acoustic guitar. Again, I played and played, and there were even nights "I played it 'til my fingers bled"...
I have always loved to tell stories, especially those stories that really capture peoples emotions, and so stick in their memories. When i hear these stories, I often try to retell them, hoping that someone else will catch it the way I caught it...
My stories may or may not be true... I have yet to figure that out yet but, true or untrue, let them take you on a journey, and when you get back, then you can deside how true they are for you...
Live, Love and Die Happy, Craig
