Meh.. Just kidding.. in fact, it was lead guitarist in band, I am currently in. Before, I was in rock covers making band and lead guitarist (Ondra) there was like "Oh no, you cant play this like that, its sounds awfuly and this is too complicated for you to play..", "you need barre chords for metal" and "metal is about hitting two "kilos" (its his term for power chords - like kilograms) and it really is not a music". He was playing for 7 years.... I thought, its just too hard for me to play guitar... Then I went into band, and the lead guitarist there (Adam) is total metal freak.. And when I saw him "guitar fighting" with Ondra, he was holding ESP Kirk Hammet signature axe in his hand.... And he just blew him up... He started playing and everything seemed so easy to me.. he was able to jump, make funny stuff and everything, while still playing insane quick riffs and solos. When Ondra asked him, how long is he playing, he told him "for 3 years". For first time, i saw him totally owned :-P Thats, what I call living inspiration :-P And thats why I am here Also, I loved Dimebag, Cavalera and Laiho, so... But mostly the story I wrote..

For me...it was the sound. Like a well tuned Harley, it was music to my ears. Not to forget the women who swoon for those melodic ballads that only a guitar can produce

My inspiration to pick up guitar was a NOFX song, "seperation of the church and skate".
