I thought somebody would be influenced by the site to play? Looks like Dave is the winner

Nice show. I saw that tour at the Vet. One of the best times ever. I was lucky enoguht to have 40th row. Not bad considering there were 50,000 people there!
one of the most memorable days of my life...awesome

I started about 2 1/2 years ago. Dave was one of my major influences, but I really started getting into acoustic stuff, had a few people I knew that played..

12 years ago. It was either pick my own instrument or get stuck in band with my sister's saxophone, so I decided to buy myself a guitar by mowing lawns. Everybody was playing bass anyway, so the guitar was my own personal thing.
Stay with me, safe and ignorant.

Well I had my first guitar when I was 5. Mom ASKED me if I wanted lessons being my stupid self I said no.. all I wanted to do was climb trees and jump in mud puddles. About 11 years later I bought an electric Epiphone with my money from my part time job and have been playin for 4 years. But I found it hard to find the time when I was goin through highschool and working. Never got good til I went away to school. But I'm kicking my ass that I never took lessons when I was 5... Magine 15 years of guitar there would be discussion boards and tab websites of me. Fuck.

Didn't you ever wonder maybe you could have been someone other than yourself?
