...to this crowd of heavy guitar lovers!

So now, some few data about myself: I live in Montreal, I'm a male, and I like the following bands/artists -- in no particular order:

- Fates Warning
- Steve Vai
- Joe Satriani
- Brad Gillis
- Annihilator
- Marty Friedman
- Jason Becker
- Queensryche
- Crimson Glory
- Blind Guardian
- Dream Theater
- Symphony X
- Whitesnake
- Queen

I hope to have fun here, to learn a lot from you guys and to share with you a couple of my thoughts from time to time.

Regards,

[img]images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif[/img] Yeah, I knew that it would be politically correct including VH in my list, but being "politically correct" is not my strongest point -- being a rocker I guess it's normal, uh? [img]images/smilies/icon_wink.gif[/img]

However, I can say that I LOVE how Eddie Van Halen plays the guitar, but unfortunately I've never been too much into VH the band. In fact, I plan to ask some questions about them around here, so maybe I'll buy a couple of their albums.

BTW, Thanx for welcoming me! -- well, see? you can still be polite in spite of not being "politically correct" [img]images/smilies/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Cool man, I hear ya, its all a matter of taste [img]images/smilies/icon_thumb.gif[/img] We really moved away from VH at this site to make it more general for guitarists of all kinds. Not just rockers but anything that people are into, I dig hearing it all.

Thanks! In fact, maybe I should have said that it was YOU who told me about this forum. [img]images/smilies/icon_wink.gif[/img]

So, thanks twice again! [img]images/smilies/icon_wink.gif[/img]

...some other bands/artists that I also like A LOT -- I don't really know why I forgot mentioning them:

- Rush
- Kansas
- King Diamond
- Ark
- Tony MacAlpine
- Watchtower
- Spastic Ink
- Cynic

I also forgot to say that I like playing the guitar [img]images/smilies/icon_jam.gif[/img], and that I also sing pretty well -- Sister Wrath can tell you whether this is the truth or not, uh Sister? [img]images/smilies/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Well, I guess that now I said everything I had to say for a "hello" thread. Thank you all for all your replies!
