Heard ya missed me, well i'm back!

[VanHalenFan5150]

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!

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/?set=a.2077720800051.59082.1755957710&type=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!

Welcome back dude. Always good to see one of the good posters return...

Sharing one's music is always welcome here, in fact encouraged. ( See: Elvis)

[VanHalenFan5150]

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.

[Diamondjimi]

Keep writing. Get yourself a drum machine, it's like having half a band.. lol

[PETE'S BROTHER]

did you get to see vh on tour?

[jhale667]

Welcome back! Writing solo w/o a band will improve your songwriting chops. Keep at it! :baaa:

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! :D 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. :D

Thanks again guys!

[Hardrock69]

Congrats on getting to see them! Sounds like you have had a great time this past 2 years!

Welcome back ;)

[private parts]

Checked out your videos- very nice job!

[VanHalenFan5150]

Thanks a lot, guys, I appreciate it!

[SilvioDante]

Welcome back.

Actually just got back from Anna Maria. Love that place....

[Dave's Bitch]

So i just watched your youtube vids,Great stuff :)

Can you do Unchained?

[VanHalenFan5150]

Silvio man, great place! Love it there.

@Dave's Bitch
Yes, I can play the entire song but it's been forever actually.

[Dave's Bitch]

You should do an unchained play through and give me a shout out :bigwink:

[ELVIS]

Nice tone on that star spangled eruption...

Welcome back !!


:killer:

[ELVIS]

Yes, I can play the entire song but it's been forever actually.

Forever ???

You're seventeen fucking years old !!!!

[Guitar Shark]

17 years old, yet he almost certainly has better social skills than a certain someone.

[ELVIS]

Well, my social skills and my internet etiquette are two totally different things...


:elvis:

[VanHalenFan5150]

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 :D

[Dave's Bitch]

So that's a no on a shout out?
