A Timeless Moment
My love for creating and expressing myself with music, has always been my favorite pastime. I love being able to go into a realm where I can put everything on hold until the music's over. I find it hard to ever think that I can ever say I cannot learn something new with music because like life you can never stop learning. My genre has been influenced and shaped by not only playing one type of music. I am able to play gospel music to heavy metal and rap. I would rather have a record that is a mix of what I like than being stuck in a labeled genre. Freedom of being able to play what moves me is key to true expression. I enjoy listening to all music and see the beauty in not only sound but I also can appreciate the soul and feeling of every note and silence. My influences range from the Doors, Guns N Roses, Nirvana, Eminem, Jay Z, AC DC, Alice in Chains to Alice Cooper. I have always liked Slayer, Daft Punk, Marilyn Manson, White Zombie, Rob Zombie and many many more than I care to write about because this can go on forever. I merely put a dent on the list of musicians I have credited my influences from, but it was Nirvana that inspired me to pick up a guitar. I was at a party and grabbed an acoustic and plucked out Something in the Way by accident probably from hearing the music so much. From that day on I just said I can play guitar. I met other guitarists with totally different tastes in music and found we had one similar band we thought rocked. Metallica. I was 13 years old the first time I belted out that Nirvana song and glad I decided to pursue music as hobby and a way of life. I will love it for as long as I live and I can picture myself as an old man who can solo out, while my grandchildren stand shocked in awe that they have a gramps that still has such enthusiasm for music, and see not an old grandpa, but as a 13 year old with the same passion as the day I started to play guitar.
