661648 2008-04-24 21:12:00 Rob - I just listened to the clip again and thought it faintly reminiscent of Dire Straits. Is Knopfler one of your influences? If not, who are? Greg (193)
661649 2008-04-27 02:00:00 I like his style, I love the Brothers in arms song, but I wouldn't say he would be an influence.

Stevie Ray Vaughn, George Lynch, Marty Friedman, Hendrix, Ritchie Blackmore, Gary Moore, Zakk Wylde and Dimebag.

There are heaps more, but I would say these guys made me pick the guitar up and go loose, I learned by ear and alot of guitarists write there music properly so I didn't know how to read their music. If it sounded good though I would try and figure out how they did it!

661650 2008-04-27 02:42:00 Your track also reminded me of an old Air New Zealand ad from years back that used that Brothers in Arms track. I liked the ad. vitalstatistix (9182)

:eek: where is my :GreenWithEnvy emoticon. You have seen the guy with probably the best picking technique in the world, wish I could meet him, he is my 'virtual' teacher, have some of his videos that I go through every now and then. Terrifying guitar trip very helpful, Guitars from Mars very influential with all the classical works :clap
