RABID KISS FAN SINCE THE BEGINNING! RECENTLY REDISCOVERED THE GUITAR AFTER TEN YEARS OF LETTING THEM COLLECT DUST! NEW YORK RANGERS RULE! AT LEAST THEY DO IN MY HEAD! BLEED RANGER BLUE!
LISTEN!!!! (SAID OF COURSE IN A PAUL STANLEY VOICE!)
I WAS ALWAYS HOOKED BY THE RHYTHM PATTERNS IN SONGS. WHEN I WAS A KID I PUT MY BIG CLUNKY EAR PHONES ON AND CONCENTRATED ON THE RHYTHM PATTERNS. I WAS TOTALLY INFLUENCED BY PAUL STANLEY AND ALSO DEREK ST. HOLMES FROM TED NUGENT. BOTH AWESOME RHYTHM GUITAR PLAYERS. SO AT THE AGE OF 17 WHEN I STARTED PLAYING I HAD LITTLE INTEREST IN LEARNING LEADS AND TO BE TRUTHFUL NO PATIENCE FOR IT EITHER. AT THIS STAGE OF THE GAME I PRACTICE MY SCALES DAILY BUT STILL DON'T HAVE THE SPEED IN MY CHUBBY LITTLE ITALIAN FINGERS. ENJOY MY RHYTHM GUITAR WORK!
