I figure anyone who goes to the effort of writing 36 songs for 1 album deserves a good listen! That's just not done anymore.. 36 songs is 4 albums.. I know I've heard some of them before so should be good.

oztheatre Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Yeah he's quite the prodigy, has heaps of covers on YT and has original stuff too. Great tone, not exactly his own, but pretty much nailed the brown sound EVH has. It's just great to see kids playing actual music with all the processed garbage out there today.

Have you seen this chic, she plays some old school stuff too and she is amazing? Doesn't hurt that she is hot as to boot!
