About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 HEY DROOGIES!!! I'm Zak... I'm a guitar student from Adealide, Australia. I am pretty easy going, respectful fella'...I try to be super nice to anyone I meet and I'm always up for shouting someone a drink or getting them into a show. I am the UGLY guy in the Adelaide metal scene... Aside from that I'm probably the biggest Jeff Loomis fan you'll ever meet... He's the nicest guy I've ever met. I am extatic about guitar playing and I talk/think about it constantly. My fave players and influences are Jeff Loomis, Jason Becker, Michael Amott, Steve Smyth, Jasun Tipton, Corey Grieve (great mate of mine), Brett Rectfertig, Richie Kotzen, Alex Skolnick and Graham Greene (absolute legend). I am not here often so if you see me, chat while you can. I am in college atm, so I'm pretty much half-dead waking up lol. Thanks for checkin out my profile and please don't be afraid to send me a message from time to time. Keep Kicking Ass God Bless -Zak PS If you're on MSN, mine is [email protected].... I'm on from time to time so catch me while you can Find me on MySpace and be my friend!

My Interests

Playing Guitar, Practising for a few hours a day, Music Theory, Composing-Arranging, Hanging out or calling friends (both local and overseas) and going to local shows.

I'd like to meet:
