About

Classic Rock / festival / cover band (not a bar band) near the East-Burke, Hickory NC

Contact: lrm_3@yahoo dot com

Watch the videos and you be the judge;

“Women in love” intro and “Somebody get me a Doctor” solo are without any backing tracks.

Van-Halen tribute is passages of “Eruption” and it really shows what wicked tones the Fender EVH 5150III can attain.

The other guitar solo clips are; 38 Special: “Rocking into the night”, Night Ranger: “Sister Christian” and AC/DC: “You shook me all night long” played along with soundtracks (in my garage through PA).

All tracks (except IPHONE video) are one guitar microphone and MP3 player ran from Mackie mixer straight into laptop using windows movie maker. They are pure “raw”, accurate representations of my playing. No studio overdubs or fixes. They are sort of live online demos.

The phone video shot outside sums it all up 100%.

Influences

GOD, Edward Van-Halen, Brad Gillis, Zakk Wylde, Mark Knopfler, Reb Beach and on and on... too many.

I have learned and played so many songs it would be impossible for me to list them, however as a style or by artist may be easier:
· Classic Rock (of course) such as Journey, Aerosmith, Eagles, Starship, ZZ Top, Cheap Trick, Heart, Pat Benatar, Bon Jovi, Billy Squier, Ted Nugent, Bryan Adams, AC/DC, Kiss, Scorpions, Dokken, Def Leppard, Night Ranger, Winger, Ratt and other 80’s hair bands.
· Southern Rock; 38 Special, Molly Hatchet, etc…
· 90’s stuff like STP, Candlebox, Driving & crying, Alice in Chains, Creed, etc…
· Old School stuff like “Shooting Star”, “Spooky”, “All right Now” and a few others.
· Obviously quite a bit of Van-Halen, including the most popular ones etc…
