Diamond Boulevard
My occasional guitar teacher, Alex, is finishing up a tour in support of Sevendust with his band, Crash Midnight. This is their lead single. At the age of forty-two, I find it charming when younger guys kind of reach for that classic Gn'R sound. As some of you know, Appetite For Destruction has been very important to me.
And I also think of what John Mayer said a while ago: when you work at sounding like your heroes and don't quite get there, that's when you start to sound like yourself.
