I've done a lot in the past couple months music-wise. In November I bought a 60's Fender Strat, my dream guitar, with no help from my parents. Then in December I got to see one of my top 5 fav. bands play- Van Halen ! In January i bought a lil amp that I carry in the car, once again with no help of my parents, and next week imma be in a battle of the bands at my school, not too big, but hey, it's a start for me. Hope it goes well.
