Hi there,

I am very happy to present Daniel Robinson, instructor from Orlando, Florida.

He has an interesting background and will kick things off with a George Lynch lesson! biggrin.gif

Be sure to check out his mp3 as well!

Welcome to GMC Daniel! biggrin.gif

QUOTE
I started playing guitar at the age of 15. I was already involved in music before then though having been taking piano lessons for several years as well as playing in school orchestra and marching band.

I started my first band when i was 16. We played parties and what not typical garage band type stuff. Thru the 80's and 90's members came and went as well as names. During the time doing this though i have had the great honor of being in bands that had tremendous luck when it came to finding gigs. Several times being asked to be warm up acts for head lining groups coming into our town. I have had the pleasure of opening up for Yngwie, Dokken, Poison, Slaughter and Quiet riot. The reason for our luck came by way of a friend whose sister was dating Bobby Dahl at the time (bass player for poison). He had a house not far from where i live and i got to meet alot of people in the business because of that contact. The one constant in my bands though was the drummer, who ended up being my brother in law when he married my sister.

My current project is a group named "Whats the Matter" we are trying to go the route of symphonic/power metal in the vein of Within Temptation...Nightwish etc. We have a female vocalist. At this time we are trying to work out writing and creating a set list which we hope to go into the studio with sometime this fall or winter. We are trying to be prepared as much as possible so we keep studio time to a minimum.

I am including an mp3 of a track from this project thats still in the development stage i am sure it will change somewhat. Its just the raw music at this time lyrics havent been written or laid down yet. You know as well as i do that music is an ever changing process. The tentative name of the song is "The coming storm" It has in my opinion some interesting guitar layering the guitar solo is not polished yet. But i was going for a Craig Goldy type vibe (guitarist for Dio)

I am really looking forward to teaching here, the internet has broken down so many barriers and is an exciting medium to reach out to people from all around the world.
