Smokin weed at my buddy Ricky's house after school in the 9th grade :lol: :LOL:

He had a strat copy and an old pos amp. Just to hear basic bar chords was amazing to me. I later bought his guitar and Ive been playing guitar ever since

Eddie is King and always will be but growing up Randy Rhodes, George Lynch and Paul Gilbert were influences on me to name a few :yes:

And this was maybe after a few years' worth of cutting teeth on a BTS acoustic. But ya, hands down...THIS was my inspiration and continues to be today :salute:

Michael Schenker, Uli roth, Tommy thayer, uh, I mean Ace frehley...
 
motley crue and ratt got it into my head that i needed to play cause i really loved shout at the devil and out of the cellar. i was 9 and played alot of air guitar.

dokken and metallica took it a step further, so if it wasnt for those bands i might not have picked up a guitar.
 
the first black sabbath album..i cant tell you what an impact that had on me..
 
Hangar 18. I started stealing my dads acoustic and had him show me basic chords...
 
I was about 9 when The Monkees made their comeback in the mid-eighties. I had to have a guitar with f-holes like they did!
 
Tony Iommi, Randy Rhoads, Ritchie Blackmore, Judas Priest and Mercyful Fate. Oh and Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Allman Bros. Hey if I couldn't play metal I would be playing Southern Rock :)
 
women dont like keyboard players as much as guitarists... :lol: :LOL:

and then my drummer's dad put on VHII.. that jump started getting serious about guitar when i was about 10
