    • @Missunderstood214
      @Missunderstood214 3 роки тому

      No, they chose him. When Jason had to have emergency surgery and left them without a guitarist in the middle of their last tour, Zoltan requested this man specifically. They didn't even consider anyone else. That's a good thing because it shows that they know exactly who he is and what he's capable of and the last thing that they'd want would be to waste his talent. If anything, it's much more likely that the rest of them will up their game to prove that they're worthy of having him.

      @@Missunderstood214 I was being facetious. Implying that I personally wished he wouldn’t have gone with them. His writing, to me, is beautiful and I would rather see “Andy James and the Crotch Rockets” or anything other than him playing for FFDP.

    • @Missunderstood214
      @Missunderstood214 3 роки тому

      Jeff: He had his own band, Sacred Mother Tongue, but they didn't make it anywhere so they just broke up. And even his solo stuff just got him moderate attention within the guitar circle, but didn't exactly make him a household name (I've honestly never even heard of him until Death Punch picked him up), or anything. But then he got offered the chance of a lifetime by one the biggest bands in the world, who happen to be one of his favorite bands, so was he supposed to turn that down? I mean, I get the concern because, honestly, even though I've followed them for years and was only a fan of his for a few months, even I have to wonder if maybe they went a little too far out of their league with this one and I kind of worry that they're going to waste his talent (though I am quite impressed with "Broken World"). When someone expressed that concern to him on Instagram, though, he said that this is his dream gig and he feels lucky as fuck to have landed it so as long as he's happy, I'm happy for him.

There are so many others . lately I've been listening to Plini, Distant Dream , a bit of polyphia , sammy boller, and jeff beck. In a general sense , I would go with Satriani, Andy james, and SRV.

    You masterfully combine explosive heavy rhythm parts with incredibly melodic, skillful and pleasing solos. I honestly look up to your skill aswell as to your taste in making music. I am glad I found you.
