Been playing 'la gitaara' for quite a few yrs now.....picked it up from a friend who ironically, doesn't play it anymore......one of the reasons i took it up was the crazy urge to play "hotel california",and this 'urge' is still there,albeit for different songs & music......so that effectively means that i play any song or music that i like irrespective of the genre or popularity.....but yeah,the choice of songs is sometimes limited by the lack of additional/back up musicians,which are so very required for various songs[californication,given to fly,jumper etc.]....same reason for the lack of solos in my own compostions....always wanted to be in a proper band but never found the right kinda ppl to jam with.....wud still love to do that & perform songs that i haven't played as a solo act.....
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
been playing since 2001,with a few minor 'non musical phases'.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
have played at a coupla college-fests.....i must say,its really adrenalising in the truest sense.i absolutely love playing live to a sane set of audience,or maybe,lack of them.....a very special moment was way back in 2002 at a prestigious college fest where they would allow only "bands" to perform....but i gave the organisers some stupid story about how my bandmates hurt themselves in a road accident......and as a special case, i was allowed to perform solo after every band finished and man,did i loove it!!!
Your musical influences
Radiohead,Nirvana,Dave Grohl,Chris Cornell,Nuno Bettencourt,Oasis,Flea
What equipment do you use?
A box guitar,PC
Anything else?
looking forward to any comments,bouqets,brickbats etc about my music
