Saw my 1st concert - Kiss in March of '85 when I was 13, knew I wanted to play guitar after that show. After about 6 months of asking my parents to trade in my accordion for a guitar they finally caved. Started playing at 14 then quit playing guitar at 20yrs old, child on the way/life/etc. On my 40th birthday I'd decided I'm going to pick up the guitar again, re-taught myself myself how to play and 3 days after my 41st birthday in 2012 I'd played my first bar show with Cyril Sneer. I'm guessing I've played 50 plus shows in the past 4 years since that first show with 3 former bands and including Sudden Discharge.
