    I’ve been playing guitar non-stop for 51 years, drawing heavy influence from legends like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommi, Joe Satriani, Ricky Wilson, Mike Einziger, Ace Frehley, and countless others. However, I have to say, no one has impacted my playing quite as much as Gary Moore. He’s the one who taught me those massive bends and showed me how to pour pure emotion and soul into every note. While he made his mark in Thin Lizzy before going solo, it was his blues album, Still Got the Blues, that truly changed everything for me!

    Just watch this and you'll know what I mean!

    NICE! Jimmy Page captivated me. I never seen myself playing guitar. I always played drums, from childhood. How ironic that I play guitar now, haha. Well then, Joe Satriani blew me away. Once I started guitar those two have been a huge influence on me. I also love Killswitch engage, and A Perfect Circle. Are you a guitar shredder? I always assumed you are. I have never tried to play other people's music either. I would love to hear your stuff one day!
