I can impress anyone and I've done it for years, but it gets to a point when you realize that impressing people w/ your guitar skills doesn't get you very far at all...I think inherently in our minds we all that it's going to make us look like the sheezy's, and maybe for a minute it does until you get put into the guitar players box...people just think of me as the guitar guy now, and to be honest, that's annoying b/c it's just one facet of me. But that really was the image I was going for when I always had to bust out in front of everyone...I'm just saying, think about it before you try to up your image around it...I'd just say be yourself, be confident in that and don't worry about trying to impress anyone w/ anything...that's not what it's about...

I agree, but everytime my friends see my with a guitar they say "MAN PLAY THE CRAZY SHIT!!", and by the 'crazy shit' they mean stream, so I play just that...
