ABOUT

Hey, My name's Matt, I play Rythem Electric Guitar and some Lead. Whilst I can play other instruments, I don't post "I play all these things," simply because that just comes across as total A.D.D. (Attention Deficit Disorder) and I am just interested in that mostly (Guitar that is) when doing Band related projects! I also just keep things rather simplistic these days one could spend a $$$ fortune getting their gears all "Trurbo-Charged" but does that really make for better music / musicians? Nah, not really. A solid Quality Axe, good set of strings, a good ol Tube Amps, and Quality cables with a few pedals all you need to get playing! Peeps who over complicate their setup might just be overcompensating their talent / trying to distract themselves with all this crap to make them feel "More Professional" then they really are. Professional to me means 1.) Being "Response-able" or able to respond and not your average "Flakey" musicians that never calls back within a descent call back time frame! 2.) Being on time! Like do I even have to mention that? 3.) Easy to work with and flexible. LIke who wants to deal with a total "Hard-$$? 4.) Positive and friendly optimistic attitude. Like for real, this one's a "NO-Brainer!" 5.) Hard Working, Dedicated, and Loyal to the project! Like really, too many folks FAIL at this one!! Don't worry about me "Seeing the Grass Greener on The Other Side." Besides, I HATE putting time and effort into things then just totally starting over somewhere else! Look at Greenday for example Same F***ng 3 man Lineup since they first began as a band almost! Talk laying down a solid foundations!
