Do you have any advice for people starting a band?
A:Focus on song writing and make sure the people you play with are friends as well as band mates. Play live as often as possible and don't let anyone sway you from the musical direction thats right for you...when it comes down to it, you're the ones playing the songs over and over, so you better get off on what you're doing or you'll be miserable...

A:Well, I play Guitar and Bass as well as Piano, but primarily Guitar...I prefer Deans, Jackson Kelly Pros and Gibson/Epiphone Explorers...(my main guitar is a Dean ML), I'm 6'4" so any small body guitars look like kiddy guitars on me, plus I prefer the necks and body shape on them.
