Social Distortion - Don't Drag Me Down

First it was the intro drum beats tht got me into drumming. Then it was the thrusting solos frm tht song tht told me "hey, go get an electric guitar!" I already had an acoustic tho bt didnt do anythin with it for abt a few mths.

nirvana - smell lyk teen spirit ... the song that made me want to know more abt guitar

and the rest

Gnr - sweet child of mine
oasis- most of thier songs ... i simply love thier vintage guitar tone
incubus- very creative

[MadWerewolfBoy]

lol for me, there was this particular church camp a few years... and there was this get-together time... there was this bunch of guys havin a great time playing the guitar and i was like... stoning around miserably...

then there was this girl who played Love Will Keep Us Alive by the Eagles (any1 knows which was the original band who played this song?) and i thought it was lovely...

so i bought a yamaha classical guitar (i was so clueless about guitars then i didn't know the diff between acoustic and classical) and leart my 1st song from my retareded buddy - Fook a Dog by Blink 182

:twisted: on a classical guitar... while singing it... YEAH :twisted:

 

[redname]

i was influenced by my church frens, then i moved on as i hear eric clapton stuff

 

[Rollercoaster]

Well for me, I got turned on to heavy metal by my friend when I was fifteen, and the first time I heard someone solo on the guitar was this malay playing Hotel California and I was like "god, how did he manage to do that!!!" And from then on I decided I wanna be a guitar player!!!!!!

 

[Kaye]

JOHN MAYER"S- NEON! oh gosh.. after listening to it.. gosh. So into guitars and stuffs.. But till now.. i still cant play the song. Eh and the other song is Chop Suey by System Of the Down. The first song that i learn was Vertical Horizon- Best i ever had.

But yeah.. till now John Mayer is still my guitar hero.. and i still go crazy whenever i listen to Neon.

 

[shibby]

for me it was the best song of all.............
