Hendrix Cuzzin

[ZiiopBoii]

I was juz wonderin if anyone heard of a guy who is actually Jimi Hendrix's cuzzin who's in Spore. I dunno if he still here coz i heard of him few yrs back.

My fren who own a pub said dat da guy wen to his bar once n had a drink. They chatted abt Hendrix and all.

On another incident, i was wif my dad ard peni plaza area. My dad suddenly nudge me and said dat da guy infront was Hendrix's cuzzin. He really look like Hendrix.

Isn't that Riki hendrix? Soft once advertised a clinic of his that cost around $100(I think).

[ZiiopBoii]

yeah Riki dats rite. Wat ever happened to him man??

 

[viper]

never heard of this news before , but sounds pretty cool?
so...where is he now?

 

[fgl]

yes Riki REALLY IS Jimi's cousin..

He's back in the US now working on his next album that will hopefully feature some of SG's local acts.

His clinic at Dan Enterprise was 100% totally free over 2 days.

He's the BEST damm guitar player I ever cut heads with on stage!

One of the nicest guys and most humble person I know.

Riki was also one of the judges in Steve Vai's guitar solo competition that i took part a couple of years back (organised by Yamaha)...seeing him besides other terror guitar judges like Paul Danial and Addy Gilbert watching me solo, makes me wanna pee in my pants...ha ha.

But as fgl mentioned, he's a very nice guy lah, gave me some comforting words and to be complimented by Jimi's cousin makes my nose hole bigger...lol. Anyway since i lost in the finals and didn't win the prize of jamming on stage with Vai, maybe i get the chance to jam with Riki instead? (Bro fgl, don't forget me hor...hee) Btw, I don't see much face resemblance but his outfit really reminds me of Jimi though...

 

[ZiiopBoii]

i do tink he looks like jimi thou but da buffed up version. If i remember correctly 8)

 

[fgl]

Wow! Amazing... So Hendrix's cousin is a Singaporean?

no but his wife to be is... hence the SG connection...

 

[fgl]

bro pablo - sure...maybe nexttime he's in town we do a soft / hendrix clinic or something?

 

[pablo]

fgl, that will be cool, thanks man...btw Riki's wife to be must be one FOXEY LADY...ha ha
