For me, Music is the thing that allows for an escape from the daily grind of Business, relationships, etc........... It brings on a challenge to a personal level of creativity when playing and also takes you to a place when listening or going to see someone else play from their creative source. With so many different styles available to fit your personal tastes in music, you can choose what you want to hear and help in creating the mood you're feeling at the time. The beauty of music is that the same artist can allow you to hear something differently depending on how you listen to it from the mood you're in, whether it be Joe Walsh or Randy Rhoads.
Having been fortunate enough to see Randy Rhoads on the debut "Blizzard of Ozz" Long Beach Arena tour date, I was blown away and always hear his brilliant structure from different angles.
