ABOUT

I've been playing casually for 12 years, but I really started taking it seriously in the last couple of years. My ultimate dream, of course, is to be part of "the next Metallica," but the more realistic dream is be successful, touring nationally or internationally. I'm currently studying at ACMUCO and am willing to branch out to genres other than metal/rock. matthewkhirsch at . I'm currently looking to be a part of a band, preferably hard rock or metal. I'm also looking to put together a power metal band along the lines of HammerFall, Tarot, Iced Earth, Rhapsody of Fire, etc.
