When I was contemplating the creation of my own website, it seemed a little presumptuous at first. I later realized that it was a great opportunity to establish a direct contact with people who enjoy my music. Onstage it is easy to establish empathy with my audience, but unfortunately it is not very personal in nature like receiving your direct opinions or comments. The Internet now provides the ability to establish and maintain a more direct form of contact and I can also offer updated information about what's happening professionally. Although a cliche, my music is no longer my own as soon as someone hears it and makes it theirs, so I'd like the site to be a window to my world through which anyone can express their ideas and feelings about the guitar and about music in general. I'd just like to say thank you for your participation and invite you to continue to share the common interests which unite us.
