Who made you start playing guitar?

Van Halen duh….. but not one of the songs you would normally think of….. It was the summer of 1980 and a neighbor friend’s older brother was playing Van Halen Women and Children First. The 12 string acoustic opening to “In a simple rhyme” was mesmerizing to me. I was determined to figure out...

Van Halen - Live in Fresno 1978

Rick Beato interviews Ian Thornley from Big Wreck

Great interview. I found out about Big Wreck and Ian during the Suhr factory show a number of years back at NAMM. Watched the video and went down a rabbit hole.... LOL.... Just saw them live in Phoenix recently. Definitely a live show highlight for me.
