This journey begins with an energy.
It comes from the unknown. Meditation.
That is the act of focusing on one specific thing while forgetting the rest.
Unknown thoughts. The something that controls our brain to control our thoughts to control our music. It is not what we know at all.
Expression, believe it or not, is the driving force.
I also have the most beautiful, amazing girlfriend in the world, Alysia Chavez.
And I can never thank my family enough for all of the love and support they've shown.. It mean's a lot.
すべての私の日本の友人を歓迎しなさい。 私は音楽を楽しむことを望む。

What I'm Trying to do With Music
I believe that the most important thing about muisic is to be completely innovative. There are, in my mind, no rules to music which makes it completely open to a man to either slaughter a song, or to make it a masterpiece; and I'm trying my very hardest to make it a masterpiece. Now, with great musicians by my side, I can;and I can have a good time doing it. I'm not saying that there aren't influences on me, because there are, I'm saying that it's important to reach the depths of your soul and discover the enigmas of your mind in order to make a beautiful, ingenious creation.

Aww that was the original reason we stopped doing lessons but i thought he was coming back :( Well i play bass and i was for the most part taking theory/composition rather than technique. And plus it's more fun playing along with guitar. So depending on what your teaching styles it just might work.
Being extremely active is key, and NEVER turn down a combat assignment. The latter, I'd learned from a buddy of mine, who grew up in West Point. We are called to duty, at times, so we must project, prioritize, and execute. Don't lose the edge in your playing, and jazz out entirely. Balance was something Shawn Lane stressed at his clinics. RIP ( S.L. )
Hey does Kyle still give lessons at firehouse? I took lessons with him in the past and was considering starting up again. If not I'll have to contact him about some private lessons.
