    Tommy is a musical genius transcends all aspects of music. He’s had a difficult life and struggled with some substance abuse but I think he gained some control of it and seems to now being a happy marriage. I’m happy for him. It’s not easy being someone like that the driven quality of his music, his knee to be playing it all over the world it’s not easy to have relationships that survive that but it looks like he has so that’s wonderful.

    Being 61, I started playing guitar during the early days of the 1st wave of the shredder generation. Now I really can’t stand a lot of it these days. All the young players do it. I’m more into the slower players of my generation. Greg Howe is one of the early shredders I’d heard of in the late 80s Howe, Vernon Reid, VH, Holdsworth , Vai, and Mcalpine were flavors of the day that I gravitated to back then. Greg is one of the few that I currently still like probably because of the jazz fusion connection in his music. Never plays a bad note. Extremely underrated, extremely talented.

    That's tragic about your relationship's with your Dad's which in my case I have never had a good relationship with my Mother!! My Dad & myself had a fantastic relationship & we were more friends & it was NEVER that typical Father/Son relationship!!! My Dad passed away 3 years ago which has been like loosing half of me!!! I have no children & my true love of my life was killed 27 years ago in a car accident! The guitar has been my life long companion & although I am a rock electric player & one of a small few who are EMG & Floyd Rose with Marshall's that is my voice!!!! But music has healing powers & I have been dipping my toes into acoustic music & it has added too my passion!!!!!

    Many many years ago, my wife and I saw Joe Bonamassa at the Tralf in Buffalo New York. Keep in mind at the time he was relatively unknown. We got there an hour and a half early because it was general seating ,my wife thought I was nuts. It was a small venue. We sat at a cocktail table around 20 feet from the stage and we were just blown away! Talk about upfront and personal! It was a full house and his parents were in the crowd who he acknowledged during the show ,years later after his career took off we saw him at much larger venues, and to this day he still puts on an absolutely fabulous show! he keeps getting better Year, after year and he is so gracious and humble simply an amazing talent.

    I remember a drum clinic in Wellington New Zealand where Dennis was asked what he thought of Slayer?! He very politely said "I'm sorry I'm not familiar with that gentleman" LOL - IOW he answered what could have been seen as a sleight against his field of music and all the great artists he'd worked with, by a simple comment. That was a lesson right there!

    Thanks for doing this interview, it was heartwarming getting to hear about his journey. Actually it had me saying, "no way!" several times because a lot of his starting attitudes and perspectives were exactly the same as mine almost 20 years ago starting out. It seems that the best guitarists are often very humble and soft-spoken. He, Shawn Lane, and Scott Henderson are my top 3 of all guitarists hands down.

      @ I’m not anywhere as good, I don’t claim to be. Just because Tommy is better than me doesn’t make him in the least be interesting. It’s Dave Matthews band/Hootie and the blowfish style, bland, safe music.
