Shane Wood
My name is Shane....I am a self taught musician. Quite frankly.....I think it all sounds like garbage to me.....but, my wife likes it so I thought I'd get opinions from others as well.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I started playing guitar in 1997 while deployed to Bosnia when I was in the Army. I have had the honor of playing with some truly talented people. Rikk Beatty of the Seattle based Rikk Beatty Band. Rikk is also the lead clinician for the Digitruck from DigiDesign. John Ambrusch....a fellow soldier and an amazing drummer. Rafael "Tony" Torres....another brother in arms....back in the early 90's he was in a band called Lawdy. They were big as shit in Europe. He and I did some freelance from the hip shit together.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Naw....not me. I just play for the love of playing. Not to mention, my wife likes it....thus a damn good night for me.
Your musical influences
I have a wide variety of tastes in music....it really depends on my mood I guess. But...my favorites include Joe Satriani, Vai, Queensryche, Mike Corrado, Dream Theater....yadda yadda you get the point.
What equipment do you use?
Alvarez Acoustic guitars, Schecter C-1 Elite
Anything else?
Thanks for coming by and checking out my spot....if you like what you hear....let me know....if not.....let me know. Either way, thanks for coming.
