    First concert I ever saw was the Ramones and we walked to the show as it was literally through my backyard in Building K at College of Dupage. I was seated literally 5 feet from Johnny Ramone and I had just turned 13. What memories a plank of wood has provided me!!

    Pat Metheny is amazing both as a player and a composer. Seen him live numerous times. But he'd still come after Hendrix in my list.

    I’m only familiar with Govan from his work with Asia, what else can you recommend?
