Why this name?
I'm blind on one eye and a lefty, so..... that one was easy
Do you play live?
Nope, not yet.... still.......
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It should make music more distributable :-) Now I don't have to force people to listen, they have a choice.
About the Internet: Take a look at http://www.jimmyg.us The website of an artist that I have deep respect for !

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
They won't ask anyway
Band History:
At the age of ~12 me and my parents were told in a local music store that since I'm left handed, I couldn't play the guitar (Yes they believed it). The result was I didn't get a guitar. In stead I got an accordion. I actually had lessons for2 or 3 years.
Afterwards I sold the accordion and bought me a right handed guitar. At first I tried to play right handed but that didn't work for me. I changed the string order to lefty and there it started.
When I was in my 30's I finally bought me my first real left handed guitar, A used ' 83 Tokai goldstar Strat. That was the time I started making real progression.
I still have and love the Tokai Goldstar.

Had to create another "Blinded" backing for a collab and during the process I decided to have some fun myself to
A SoundClick Top 50 song
a quick, single guitar/track noodle, based on notes played around some chords. The trem is a bit to prominent, but can't be edited, it's recorded that way
A SoundClick Top 10 song
A raw piece I did last weekend just to play away my mood. Two guitar tracks, a simple strange chord sequence thrown in a loop and a jammed lead track.

KYSM ??? haha :) Kitty Hawk - Yamaha B100G (2*12) as a cabinet and an SM57 mic in front of the speaker. Remainder is just me noodling away. It's something I recorded previously

Some backingtracks make it impossible for me to avoid the mother of all songs. Still, I had to play it one to demo the Super Champ XD anyway.
