    Heard ya missed me, well i'm back!

    Hey guys, I just realized that I haven't posted on here in a god-awful long time, like I think almost two years. I've grown up quite a bit and i've matured as a musician. My dad's friend gave me his copy of Crazy From the Heat and on a road trip to New Jersey, I read it in one day on the trip home. I now own seven guitars and a MARSHALL HALFSTACK. My two most recent guitars are an 80's Hohner LP59 Professional Les Paul knock off and a Carlo Robelli SG from the 80s. Now, about the Marshall, here's video I took recently.

    Rockin' out with my Ibanez! I also got a Dean 7 string recently, here's some clips.

    Also, I played at the county fair's talent show. I played Eruption and the Star Spangled Banner and I made it to the top 5! Video here:

    My guitar teacher has a Franky replica and he let me borrow it for two weeks during the school year this year. Video here!

    http://youtu.be/dYBglIdAPgk

    And more recently, my dad surprised me and took me to see Van Halen in Tampa, Florida on April 14th. Best night of my life! Pictures here: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...3&l=dc84092d9f

    I'll be a senior in high school this year! Wow! Time really flies. Got them done recently:

    Don't know if you guys can see the pictures as it's a Facebook link :P But anyway, hope to keep up with you guys. Rock and roll!
    Reading Crazy From the Heat in four hours flat, in a cramped RV, on the return trip of a 3,000+ mile family outing to New Jersey is an enlightening experience you'll never forget.

    Been writing a lot of tunes lately, we'll see how far I get with that! Writing music without a band is one of the hardest things i've done.

    did you get to see vh on tour?
    Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

    Yes, I caught them on tour in April! It was awesome. Thanks for the tips guys! If anybody has a copy of the DVD of Van Halen in Tampa Florida on April 14th 2012, let's work out a trade! Better yet if anybody knows anybody who has a copy, please PM me because I want this on DVD very badly. I have a copy that I got from somebody for free on The House of Bootlegs and it's one of two known sources that taped the concert and transferred to DVD. A dude named TripKore has the better looking and sounding one but he's asking $25 via PayPal for it and the one I have really kind of sucks, so if anybody has liberated this bootleg, please don't hesitate to let me know! Also, if you have a physical copy, I'd love to have one as well. If we can't work out a trade i'm really low on cash and i'll just tell my parents I found a place that'll send it to me for free.

    Thanks again guys!

    Well, meaning that in my terms it's been a good year or two, I still play Eruption daily but I've gotten into a lot more melodic and sometimes heavy bands/artists, such as Steve Vai, Jason Becker, Tosin Abasi/Animals as Leaders, and Meshuggah. I really dig Steve Vai's tone, as well! Thanks everyone for the welcome-back wishes! Also, thank you Elvis for the tone compliment... more videos coming soon
