About me:
I started playing the keyboard 22 years ago. I play by ear, and can't read music. Over the last year I've began playing out in the Northern NJ area. I've began to build a fanbase on the internet, through videos on youtube. Check the site out for updates on music, videos and upcoming shows.
Influences:
George Lynch.
He is my first influence on the guitar.
(Oct - 2007 Reintroduced myself to George October 15 at Sam Ash in NJ. This is a result of that meeting.)
Jordan Rudess.
He's the one personally responsible for helping me sound more like Satriani and Vai. (NOTE - ignore the date on the picture, it's wrong)
Joe Satriani I started playing Satriani stuff over the course of the last 20 years, and over time I think I got pretty good with it. I met Joe in April 2007
Dream Theater
What can I say...I don't think I'd push myself so hard musically if it wasn't for this band.
My keyboards
I play Korg Keyboards. If it wasn't for these boards, I wouldn't have the sounds that I have.
Korg Karma (aka - Pinky)
Korg Triton Extreme (aka - The brain)
The recording "studio"
I use a digidesign mbox2 with Pro tools 7.3.
Where you might have seen me:
Axis Lounge
Dingbatz
This has all gone further than I ever expected, and I'm grateful for the opportunities that have come my way. I don't have the desire to "make it big", I'm just happy playing out and watching people enjoy it.

hi! iam wolfgang the guitarist of dreamscape. we should learn to be the best persons we can be and our world will change. i try. but it's not as easy as playing guitar in a high class band...
H. Jackson Brown: Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are, to some extent, a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it, piece by piece -- by thought, choice, courage, and determination.
kind regards! DREAMSCAPE (progressive metal from germany) (new cd september 2009! - buy or let die!)
