I remember when I was a hating DM when I was a metal head kid in high school, then I saw him perform What Would You Say live on late night TV and was blown away that he could play that riff and sing at the same time. A few years later I discovered his Live At Red Rocks album, and it forever changed me as a musician. Totally changed my perspective of what was acceptable as modern music. The song Two Step on that album is phenomenal. It doesn’t hurt that Tim Reynolds played that show with them. I’ve come full circle as a musician with my own unique style of singing and playing, which is based around the acoustic. It feels so much more modern and progressive than electric rock guitar to me.
