Guitar, music, guitar theory, NFL football (Pittsburgh Steelers), my daughter, science.
Music
60's and 70's. Anything with nice guitar playing in it. I've listened to, learned, analyzed, taught and performed so much music it's ridiculous (and way too much to list). My first guitar hero was Ace Frehley, then I moved onto Hendrix, Page, SRV and all the other icons of rock. I was on the Atkins diet before anyone else (Chet Atkins). Currently I'm listening to Lincoln Brewster (he bad), Chris Tomlin, Paul Baloche, John Mayer, Jack Johnson, Flight of the Conchords, Los Lonely Boys, Santana, Little River Band, and lots of praise and worship music.
Movies
Don't watch them much. Saw "This Is Spinal Tap" like 40 times.
Television
Not much besides football (Pittsburgh Steelers), Lost, Flight of the Conchords, and 700 Club. I get sucked into Discovery and History channel easily.
Carlos Santana. He's not a writer or a singer. Other people do that for him while he just picks through guitar scales nonstop. The whole band revolves around the lead guitar player. Perfect! But my real hero is this guy.
About me: I'm an author and publisher. I help guitar players learn how to apply music theory to the fretboard. Scales, chords, progressions, modes and more.
Learn guitar theory. An introduction to learning music theory for guitar. How learning about guitar scales, chords and chord progressions can benefit intermediate and advanced guitar players. Pentatonic scale patterns, CAGED chord system, guitar modes and more.

I've added the songs "WE ARE THE ONES WHO CONTROL YOU" & "IT'S A PROBLEM" and my new site, wandleff.co.uk, is up and running. It contains everything on myspace plus tracks from The 700s & Murmurs of Irma.
Thanks for the add Desi, I have to comment on how much you've opened my mind with fretboard theory, it really has helped me get through guitar obstacles. Thank you!!!!!
