My first guitar was launched my way when I was 14. Once over the pain,
I noodled around for a couple of days, began a band, stopped the band, and stopped playing guitar for probably a two
years. Messing around with some of my friends, I then organised a heavy metal band, which became power metal, which in turn
became a thrash metal band. Leaving the school (in 2004) of the then-infamous group, I turned to actually practising
a bit, jamming with my musical influences until I wrote something, effectively meaning I've been playing guitar properly since around
September 2004.
Using my brothers and sisters as a (metaphorical) shovel for my inspired
grooves, I wrote, played and recorded all the instrument parts and made them rap, sing and wail over the top. Some classics
were made, but I knew this could only realistically be for fun, as while I can play drums, guitar and sing at the same time, I
can't play bass as well. Fortunately, I ran into a group of guys who occasionally wrote joke songs on an old 4-track.
Jamming along, we found that some of the stuff we wrote was actually
pretty good, so we wondered how we could expand. Forcing two previously-unmusically talented bozos to take up drums and bass,
we officially became a band unofficially around February 2005. Unfortunately, one of those bozos has left the band. His
name is Tim.
