Guitarist - 24yrs old - UK
Phil McGrath is a lead guitarist who has been playing for 13 years.
He started learning guitar at the age of 11 and then got into his first band, Drift, a year later.
Phil played over 40 gigs in this band as well as headlining many festivals along the south coast of England. The band then went on to sign a year contract with AI Productions.
As the years went on, Phil's musical tastes broadened resulting in his style becoming unique.
His second band was far more technical than the first, this being from influences such as Steve Vai, John Petrucci and Roy Z...
Phil then studied A level music at college and then went on to enroll at The Brighton Institute Of Modern Music where he studied for a HND in modern music.
During his time at BIMM, he played with many artists, such as: Kula Shaker, Mark Richardson & Ace (Skunk Anansie drummer & guitarist), and Chad Smith (Chilli Peppers drummer).
After leaving BIMM, Phil went on to join an acoustic duo, which lead to playing many gigs along the south coast and in London. After a brief stint with this band, he went on to play with a local band, The Fused.
This lead to meeting many influential people in the industry... performing infront of 4000 people... recording in the pretisgious OLYMPIC STUDIOS in London... making a music video and playing many gigs in the Capital (one viewed by Cat Deely & Jake from the Scissor Sisters)...
Phil is now part of the new line-up for great Sussex band, Scarlet's Pocket.

Air Force One is flying across the country with the President and his staff on board. Pres. Bush looks out the window and says to Dick Cheney, "You know I could throw a 100 dollar bill out the window right now and make someone a very happy person." Dick Cheney replies, "Yeah, well I could throw (10) $10 dollar bills out of the window and make 10 people happy." Condaleez Rice interrupts and says, "I could throw (100) $1 dollar bills out the window and make 100 people happy."

A manager in a big department store is hiring a new sales clerk and tells him: "I'll give you one day to prove yourself before I decide to hire you."
And at the end of the day, the manager asks the clerk "So, how many sales did you make today?"
The new clerk says "one."
"What? Only one? All our clerks make 60 or 70 sales, easy!!! How much was the sale for?"
"380,000 dollars..." says the clerk
"Whoa...what? 380 thousand...?! What the hell did you sell for that kind of money?"
"Well," says the clerk, "it all began with the fishing hook... First I sold this guy a hook, but then I convinced him he needed different sizes of hooks in case he was gonna get bigger fish.... One thing led to another & before I knew it, I had sold him a big boat & even the trailer and car to pull it!"
The manager was awestruck. "Wow, so you sold him all that and the guy just came in for a fishing hook??!!! … Amazing….
"Well, erm... no, actually the guy wanted to buy his wife a bra, and I said, “Look mate, face it, you’re never gonna get the right one & you’re probably gonna end up in the doghouse with the Mrs…. Why not just go fishing?"

Hey, hope you're planning to have a great Easter weekend! --
I'm popping by to remind you that FAME GAMES, edition 129 is on-line!
And here's a crackin' joke that opened the show...!:
A girl needs a skin graft after her face is badly burned in a car crash. Her husband gladly helps out by letting the doctors take some skin off his ass.... His wife is forever grateful and wants to repay him somehow...
"You don't need to repay me," he says. "I get satisfaction enough every time I see your mother kiss you on the cheek."
