Hello, this is a place where I unwind a lot and I also share some of the musical aspects of my life. I am very limited in terms of quality, as many of the rest of us are, so please don't expect a professional grade production from me...I will do the best I can to keep my videos moving along by using various camera shots...straight-on shots can be quite boring unless you are mesmerized by the performer...I am hardly at that level so I will use a little smoke and mirrors to try to keep it interesting. In the end, however, "It's all about the music, baby!"
I'm just an old guy who loves playing classic rock music and flies helicopters for a living. Not much to really tell except that I have been playing music since I was 7 years old.

I also have a myspace page which basically mirrors this one, with a few small exceptions, and you can visit me on myspace by going to http://www.myspace.com/larrycu rtismusic

Record Label: EaglePoint Digital
Label Type: Independent
Influences: The Beatles mostly, then a host of other classic rock acts from the 60's and 70's. After the Beatles broke up, Jethro Tull became the primary musical focus for me and had a great influence in my acoustic guitar playing.
Sounds Like: I will leave that up to the listeners...in my head I hear the originals when I play covers.
City: Houston, Texas
Hometown: Houston, Texas
Country: United States

lol, great channel man. even though, I myself and more into heavy metal. i can still appreciate a good musician when i hear one. I've been playing guitar for less than year so far ( about 8 months). I pickup things very quickly, and i'm just starting to pick up sweep picking. I'm also looking into getting a new amp (preferebly Line 6 HD150 with 4x12 Cabinet) to blast the riffs from my Epi SG G-400. but enough about me; your channel reminded me to have fun while playing and just enjoy the music. because recently i've fallen into a rut of boredom after practicing each day either sweep picking or the quasi-chromatic scale to improve my technical ability. anyway, great channel good vids, keep on rockin

-Rockin' till R.I.P....and then some-
