well what to say...As a child i learned piano and enjoyed playing all sorts of Synths and organs, but i fell in love with the sound of guitars and tried to play guitar lines and songs on keyboards then also trying to make my synth sound like a guitar. One time i was kicked out of a band because i played the guitar from Enter sandman on a synth while the guitarist was having issues with his pedals. when i was 17-18 i decided to pick up a guitar and now 23 years later i havent looked back.
when i got used to guitar i gave Bass a go and found that easy so i started trying all sorts of instruments and found i can play them, after a half hour or so, enough to basically play songs.
i love playing Metal rhythms, the energy is what it is for me, and screwing around with different sounds on my guitar. i also like playing accoustic stuff as well as working out accoustic versions of heavier songs. some work real well.
I am still building up my collection of F.X pedals , guitars and percussion instruments and other instruments ,lol.
i perfer to play rhythm ,i love chopping away at the rhythms, but i can sorta play lead work when i put my mind to it but i am NOT Joe Satriani or Zakk Wylde, wish i was. I can read guitar tabs as well as sheet music and i can also work stuff out by ear most times.
For the last few years i have been Jamming along with my I-Tunes libary that has anything from Fleetwood mac to Black Label Society. I have been wanting to get a band together or at least find like minded people to jam and create music with for around 10 years but either i dont know what they know or all they know is Metallica or Guns and Roses and i seem to know other stuff .Not fantastic guitar playing songs just good old rock guitar playing stuff is an easier way to descibe what i enjoy.
i love music and will give anything a go. Thanks for reading this
