MORE ABOUT ME:

ive been playing for abt 2yrs already. my taste for music began a long time ago when my dad intro-ed me to kenny G (sax). ive always loved blues. also listened to flamenco (spanish classical) which was sumthing my dad passed on to me. i started listening to pop acts such as westlife n'sync n backstreet boys when i was 13.

when i was 15 i was influenced by my older brother to listen to creed. at that time i was into playing drums (beginner). but listening to creeds mark tremonti made me wanna learn guitar too. i began learning guitar sept '02. ive not looked back since. tremonti was de one who influenced me to train hard on rhythm. den slash came along n i wanted to shred.

beginning of this year formed a band. got influenced by my drummer to listen to dream theater. n to this day ill hail john petrucci as de best guitarist.

i got my first guitar (cort) in march 2003 during de SARS period. den april 2004 got my prs. yeah. currently in de band IMPERFECTIONS. thanks for even bothering to read.

The more I read, I find the more similarities we share. I was also a drummer who became guitarist. First major influence that made me want to learn guitar - Mark Tremonti.

Yea, Petrucci is my best guitarist. Been listening to alot of DT stuff nowadays.

Cheers!
