Welcome to my personal Soundclick page! Here, you will find music that I've done in my spare time away from my main band, Suddenly Silence (which will have it's own page soon). It is basically a collection of instrumental outtakes and acoustic originals that have seemed to work their way into my writing. Keep in mind that some of the music has came from my friends at harmonycentral.com's Amp Forum, so my "band members" may vary from song to song. Anyway, thanks for dropping by, and visit my other page (www.geocities.com/guitar2mw) when you have time! LEAVE ME A MESSAGE IN THE GUESTBOOK AND LET ME KNOW HOW YOU LIKE MY STUFF! INPUT IS VALUABLE, WHETHER ITS POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE!
Why this name?
I don't know...ask my parents
Do you play live?
I do play live, but not as a solo act. I'm in a hardcore/emocore band called Suddenly Silence, and we are scheduling a tour right now, so I don't know where I'll be. I love every minute of it though.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Its allowed me to jam with some of the greatest musician's in the world without jamming with them...make sense? Its a great tool for bands to use. These days, our world basically revolves around technology, and I think that the music industry should use it to its fullest extent. I think that it has made the music industry broaded, and a lot of bands have gotten signed by promoting online. Its basically just made it easier to get the music out there.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Hell yeah...I've got my ink pen ready.
Band History:
I was born one day, then I learned to play the bass, guitar, drums, piano, mandolin, and banjo. I started a band, it broke up, I started a new band...yeah, that's basically it.
Your influences?
I hate answering this. Ok, here goes:
Metallica, Green Day, Finch, Glassjaw, New Found Glory, Taking Back Sunday, 36 Crazy Fists, Reel Big Fish, Poison The Well, The Deftones, Staind, Atreyu, local acts such as Red Letter Day and Blacklist, Roger Clyne, Counting Crows, Doc Watson, Joe Satriani, and Steve Vai. There's a hell of a lot more, but you get the idea.

Equipment used:
My equipment varies depending on the situation, but I'll just sum it up with this: Mesa Amplification, Peavey Amplification, Ibanez Guitars and Basses, Gibson/Epiphone Guitars, Alvarez Acoustic Guitars, Whirlwind Cables, Shure Mics, Digitech Effects Units, and a Fostex MR-8 Digital Recorder (combined with a Crate mixer and a PC)
Anything else...?
I'm single, but I'm in a band!
