Ok I lied..... I put a 3rd pic up because I like it so much. Chris's daughter writing on a $6,000 guitar with a sharpie. lol His daughter is adorable and he enjoys her. He's having a good time watching her autograph his guitar. I'd go nuts if my daughter wrote on my $6,000 guitar. ;0) Tom is in the background of that pic too.

Chris Cornell is the Man! I grew up listening to Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Nirvana, etc.

Must be pretty cool having a friend like that.

I play so these are the people that motivate me to play better, or who I just really enjoy hearing play...

Zakk Wylde (Amazing ability, and flexibility, freaking awesome!)
Stevie Ray Vaughn (couldn't read music and he STILL played like that!)
Tom Morello (my guitar dosen't sound like that [confused])
David Gilmour (AMAZING vibrato)
Cody Canada (I love his playing, plus he sings while playing lead)
Kim Thayl (Black Hole Sun- First song I ever learned all the way through. Great minimalist player.)
Billy Gibbons (my Wife bought me a Pearly Gates pickup for our anniversary!!!)
Eric Clapton (early stuff)

Cool, Cornell is the man (along with Tom of couse) tell them I said so if you get the chance. Then again I guess it's not like they haven't heard that???

Nice pics, cool to see them in candid shots.

He's totally cool. Nothing like you'd expect. Keep good thoughts for him. He's on the road right now and his wife and daughter are at the Paris house. With all of the rioting I think he's going to move them to the California house.

probably the best guitarists i've ever seen live are tim reynolds and keller williams. honorable mentions are daniel lanois and robert randolph, man those guy can tear up a lap steel

i'd sell a body part to see what's left of led zeppelin get back together, even if for only one show. jimmy page is my favorite guitarist of all time.
