My guitar teacher
« on: November 05, 2007, 04:33:34 PM »
My guitar teacher is a techno nerd.  He's really laid back, and very cool.  He just wants to have fun, and he does all sorts of things for our school.

I'm so glad I picked this elective :p

Here are some things he's made by himself...

Basically, I guess you could say he's one of my roll models.

Actually, he's influenced by basically ANYBODY who was or IS a great guitarist or vocalist.

He also teaches choir.

Sounds like he must be a good teacher, for you to have been interested in music after you step out of his classroom.:)

actually, I learned to walk to 'crocodile rock'... (sorry for rhymes)

I'm first chair trumpet, and I'm top of the class for guitar.

I have piano teachers FIGHTING over me because they want to teach me piano.  (not kidding, I've had 3 calls, and they're willing to PAY for me for the first 2 months.)  

I have been interested in music for life...  not just in his classroom...  but thanks.  

Music is just my thing...  but yea, he's a great inspiration.:D
