Big music fan. Big Rush fan. Been to all the RushCon conventions in Toronto so far. I play guitar and have been playing Rush exclusively lately. I've written some original stuff also. I like a lot of progressive music: Kansas, Genesis, Yes, Gentle Giant, Jethro Tull, ELP, Banco, PFM, Locanda Delle Fate, Syndone, Trace, Ekseption, King Crimson, Finch, Happy the Man, Niacin, Kenso, Ars Nova, Gerard, Wobbler, Par Lindh, Anekdoten & Anglagard. I also like some classical and jazz fusion. Anything with great playing in it. Fave guitarists are Alex Lifeson, Al Dimeola, Steve Morse, Steve Howe, Steve Vai, Mike Keneally, Ritchie Blackmore and Jeff Beck. Been to many concerts and festivals including most Nearfests. You can find many musicians I have played with in my friends list.

I read more online than in books. Have read and enjoyed all Neil Peart's books. I read Game Informer & EGM magazines quite a bit. Not into fiction much.

I really miss doing the RUSH tribute gig. I had a great time doing it, and I am jones-ing to jam on some new Snakes & Arrows. I went to the Tampa show last year and can't wait to see them again here in Orlando.
