Well I'm a product of the 80's. So I was always around aspiring musicians growing up (80's...a great year to be a guitarist). Since day one I was always into rock n roll (Both my parents listen to rock). I can remember at the age of 4 falling in love with the Beatles's "Day Tripper" wich I would play over and over. But it wasn't untill I heard Ozzy/Randy's Crazy Train on our local radio station that I said "I want to play guitar!" :-)
I started learning guitar because of Randy Rhoads..but Yngwie J. Malmsteen is my biggest influence.
