About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I am Sure you all would like to know who the hell is this asshole in the pictures. I just another on of those guys who started playing guitar when i was about 15. I went through all the phases you could through starting with bands like Van Halen and all the Hair bands of the late 80's and 90's. you know when it was all about the GUITAR SOLO(lol). then Grunge came along and i started to really get into that. for what reason i couldn't tell you ,although some great bands like Alice in Chains came from that era. Also i was getting into heavier music like METALLICA(pre LOAD era), PANTERA, a little SLAYER, TESTAMENT etc etc.
Now when I heard players like Steve Vai and joe satriani to name a few, I really started to really get into playing guitar. Even through the grunge era of the early 90's i was still a fan of Guitar based Instrumental rock. So I started writing my own Music which is a combo of all the types of music i listen to . While much of it has been done before and your sitting there thinking he sounds like this guy or that guy just remember that not trying to please anyone nor am I trying the break to sound barrier with speed. I just write what comes out. So I hope the songs are for your listening pleasure or you're worst nightmare. The music is on the lighter side but hey anybody who knows me knows there is anger in there somewhere. So every now and then the dark will show itself. Listen to the music and if you like it listen again and again. Thanks to all listen and are on my friends list.
