a great friend of mine directed it a few years ago, and we've just put it on youtube. it won quite a few music video competitions.

(tone is size 9 strings -> epi pickups -> epi V -> sans amp hot "california" model with everything maxed out..... i was so naive in those days)

I enjoyed that, very amusing.   :lol:

So how did you come to be making a highly professional looking video in the USA in 2003?  I get the impression you're a man with some interesting music-biz stories to tell!

theres a few stories to tell i guess... not all of them good though ;) i find it entirely addictive making music.

in general i try to steer clear of the music business, but i suppose you have to flirt a bit with it if you want to be a musician. a few times i thought of turning pro, some regrets about it i suppose, but i think for me its better not to earn my livilihood from it.

made some great friends over the years, some of them on this forum too! i'm still a ropey as hell player, but at least i sound nice now ;)

i'm quite shocked about how naive i was when i first started. got burned a few times - personally and financially. my biggest fear is that i have to stop making music someday.
