Influences
Inspiration can come from the littlest things to the biggest things. Musically, I have been inspired by so many great musicians, that it is hard to pinpoint just a few. I find inspiration in many forms of music. From classical to Metal. And a lot of points in between. Some of my more recent influences include Strunz & Farah, Al DiMeola, Joscho Stephan to musicians like Lars Eric Mattsson, Dave Martone and Shane Gibson. Anybody that is innovative and original. Other musicians that have had a major role in my musical life have to include Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson and Marty Friedman.
Jason Becker has left an impression like none of the above. His strength and determination, tremendous talent and will to survive and continue his legacy has inspired me both musically and personally.
But if you want to get right down to the roots of my musical inspiration, there can be no other than the one and only, Yngwie Malmsteen. His music and discipline are the driving force behind why I play 10 hours a day. Why I give so much of myself to my music. Nothing has inspired or influenced me like he has. But does he inspire me as a person? I think not....
"Brian is an awesome guitar player! He plays with fire, passion and soul. Thanks to his incredible teaching I now have one of his students as my guitar player. I hope I get the chance to rock with the master himself one day ;)"------ Fonda Cash
"In many aspects, Brian Auer has showed me how to improve as a player and a person. I wouldnt be half the musician I am."------Shaun Rosario
"Brian has re-inspired me to dust of my music books. When I first heard him play, his music blew me away. As I got to know him a little bit better, he truly blew me away. I am honored to consider him a mentor, an inspiration and most of all my friend."------speppers69
"Brian's guitar playing will f**k your ear hole! His fingers burn the path to hell and his pick would bust him out of a high security prison cell"--------Lynchmob

Hey whats up man? so I recently started playing guitar, and i love it. I still suck but its definitely fun and I had no idea how complex it was. I'm trying to learn Boyce Avenue's version of "Bleeding Love", ya ya i know kinda gay but my girl friend will love it. How things going for you and your music?
