Favorite bands :
Music, music, music. I listen to way too much for my own good; rock, blues, instrumental, jazz, classic rock, alternative, punk, funk, reggae, R&;B, latin, hip hop, country, rap, trip hop, pop, dance, house, trance, electronica, techno, metal, and i want to be a professional musician so i guess its all right to whore myself to music so much. Naming a few of my favorites right off, there would be Joe Satriani as always, Andy Timmons, John Mayer, Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, the Goo Goo Dolls, Joshua Redman, DC Slater, Muse, James Morrison, Nickelback, U2, and Vega4, but holy shit theres so much more. I listen to practically everything from Rock to Punk like Blink, A&;A, AAR, Love Hate Hero, Escape the Fate, The Killers, Dashboard Confessional, Green Day, Brand New, R.J.A, Jimmy Eat World, Silverstein, Velvet Revolver, Armor for Sleep and a few others.. I'm a big blues fan, with Clapton, Vaughan (Stevie and Jimmie), Hendrix (of course), Joe Bonamassa, Walter Trout, Robert Cray, and some others I probably forgot to mention.. I love classic rock and hard rock with everything from Journey, to bands like Mr. Big, Guns 'n' Roses, Def Leppard, Pearl Jam, Poison, Motley Crue, Aerosmith (steven tyler is a genius), UFO, Van Halen, Nirvana, The Scorpions, The Cure, and a few others (wow Im too lazy to type all this out) uhh so next is jazz, most people in my generation hate it.. i love it, idc what you say, stuff like Coltrane, Corea, Miles Davis, Scofield, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Pat Martino, Wes Montgomery, Pat Methany, Charlie Parker, Louis Armstrong, their stuff is beautiful music... Besides those 3 main genres of mine (Rock Blues and Jazz) I listen to a lot of stuff, first off, im polish, so by default you could guess im a big trance/techno fan haha, i love stuff by Tiesto, Darude, Paul Van, DJ Sammy, Armin Van Burren, and some other talented DJ's. Also I never gave much thought into R&;B and Soul music until I started performing a little with jul, and i gotta say, singers like Alicia Keyes, or Natalie Imbruglia are so talented its unbelievable. Stuff like Metal I'll listen to like disturbed, dream theater, riverside, unearth, atreyu, rage against the machine, its pretty good, and usually makes good workout music.. even stuff like eminem, kanye, and some rap and hip hop aint so bad once in a while ... but yeah, now i always try to listen to music hey even stuff like latino, or world music is good, i just don't understand why people put up walls to some types of music anymore... why can't you give it a chance?
