I got my first guitar when I was around seven years old and decided I would grow up to be a rock star.
My dad liked to listen to Dire Straights, the Allman Bros and Led Zeppelin so I tried to play like that.
When I was in 8th grade I discovered the Cramps and had my first life revelation.
I've been very interested in where rock and roll came from ever since.
About 15 years ago a friend brought over a cassette of Joe Maphis playing with Merle Travis.
We were blown away and thought the best thing in the world would be to die being able to play like Joe Maphis.
Since then I've played in a couple of recording/touring rockabilly bands and between getting married and having kids am still just trying to play like Joe Maphis.
I picked up a Hallmark c60 this week and think it might help me get closer!
