How long have you been playing?
Stated playing at age 13 .At age 16 I got my first electric guitar.It was an Ibanez .All I did was play .After school it was common for me to play 8 hrs .On the weak ends I would play 12 hrs .I literally played until my fingers bled .Was always striving to acquire my own style.It wasn't easy .It took a lot of hard work .At age 19 is when I started playing in bands .I was always moving from one town to the next because I began the journey of taking care of myself .I moved out at age 17 .All I wanted to do was play my guitar .I had no interest in partying .Every house I lived in I was playing in my room or the garage .I played with very good progressive rock drummers but most of them were flaky . One year i dislocated my elbow playing football and the doc told me I would never play again .I tore all the tendons in my left arm.I was unable to play for a year and it emotionally changed me .My dream of becoming a pro I thought would never come true .I prayed to the Lord during that hard time and he healed my arm completely .When I returned to guitar I began to push myself even harder..I then started reaching a higher level of playing and the arm was fine .I think it was 3 or 4 years ago that I watched Doug Doppler play .He was a student of Satriani .I had always been a fan of Satriani and knew that Doppler would influence me as well if I would watch him play.Doppler was the best live performing guitarist I had ever seen .Satriani inspired me from the beginning and Doppler literally changed me completely . These two guitarist do more than anyone I have seen .Satriani playing Live in San Francisco Is the best concert I have ever seen besides watching Doppler .. Satriani is what I strive to be like because he is the root of that style ..I cant say who is the better of the two guitarist .Its too hard .My desire is to have Satriani train me .I have never met him in person but have heard from other guitarist that he is more than nice .When I got the Satriani Signature guitar the guitar finally enabled me to be more like him ..People say don't be like him be yourself you are just as good .I know that I am not because I never had the time to play like he does .I have to work two jobs and play guitar.It has always been this way and it is only fuel .I do have the potential to almost be as good but again he would have to train me .People learn things on line and I have done that as well but it would really take Satriani to propel me ..I do the best that I can with what time I have and am happy .People say follow your dreams and I try to do that .I have had 12 dreams that Satriani mentors me in the past three years .I just had 2 more.I am always asking questions in the dreams .I don't know where the dreams come from and they didn't start until after I watched Doppler play .I don't know what it means .I love the Lord and would never lie about anything like this ..I am playing with Joe in the dreams and he is teaching me as well .My guitar playing reaches a very high level and its because of Joe .This is why I wish to be be like him because i think it is my destiny .I am following my dreams because I have had too many to ignore them .Is it crazy maybe but this is all I know I have dreams of playing like Joe.God bless

Are you in a band? Have you been in bands?
Presently am not in a band .I do shows when I am asked to .Yes been in bands .Was almost signed once but the band broke up.Billie Dolphini ,Steve Amatucci ,James Watson,Tony Shaman,Allen Sanders ,Mick Starks ,David Fillmore are all the drummers I played with and they were all Fantastic .I was lucky to have the honor to play with all of them . I miss playing with Billie.
If you could jam with anyone, who would it be?
Joe Satriani.I think only he could help me really do what I want .Wish I could play with Billie Dolphini one more time.
What's the biggest audience you ever performed to? What's the smallest?
Opening for Ex singer from Black Sabbath and Ex guitarist from Dio.It was in Eureka California.I think there may have been 1 or 2 hundred people there .I cant remember .I was just a kid when I played .It was a long time ago .
You're stuck on a desert island and only get to bring one album with you. What do you pick?
Joe Satriani Lets Rock Live. The album is a masterpiece a real work of art .Every time I hear it I always wish Joe was there showing me what he is doing on the guitar to help me become something even greater as a musician.The album is a Magic Show .
