Hey Guys,
I am Shane Comer. I began playing guitar in 1990 and played in bands until around 1996. I kind of got burned in a band situation that turned me sour towards music until recently.
I have been married to my wonderful wife for the past eight years and we have a beautiful son who turns two in September. My son has inspired me to start playing music again. I have never lost my love for music, and now I want to share it with him as he grows older. This whole project I have dedicated to him and rightfully I named this project after his nickname "Lando Commando."Band/artist history
I was a bedroom musician from 1990 to 1993. In 1993 I played for Dytryin and in 1994 Corby, Mike Hall, and I started our band StoneHead. We were a pretty solid band until the first part of 1996 when we went our separate ways. I played in the DragChain Project with Chris of CNG project and I cut a few good songs from that.
Since then I have turned down several opportunities to play in bands because I felt I wasn't quite ready yet. Now I feel that my book has opened to a new chapter, and after I graduate in the spring I plan to start something new. I want to go in a direction of music I have never done before. We will just have to wait and see. :-)Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes, I have recently started playing in the praise and worship team at my church, First Assembly of GOD in Newport. I plan on trying to start writing some original Christian Metal music, soon. I have recently been turn onto a hard groove Christian metal band called "Demon Hunter". Man they rock.......
Your musical influences
Lets see...I know if I didn't say Randy Rhoads first a lot of people would be ready to beat me up. I have been heavily influenced over the past few years by King Diamond. I like guitar players who play with technique, melody, and emotion. Not all technique and no emotion or all emotion and no technique. I like a solid mix of skills and a lot of harmonic minors. Just sounds good in any song.What equipment do you use?
Well that’s a good question. I still use my custom Carvin that I played in StoneHead. I use a super distortion 3 pickup in the bridge position. It’s a pretty hot pick up and has good tone. For now, I have been using a line 6 amp I bought from Chris of CNG. After I graduate I plan to upgrade back to a Marshall amp and a New Les Paul with the MaGic Technology. I use digital computer effects of all kinds, and Cool Edit Pro to record and mix down. I also use slightly thick picks but not too thick. I also use DR hand made strings or D’Addario strings.Anything else?
I just wanted to say that I like one more semester until I graduate. I am looking forward to starting something new in my future musical escapades.
