...and not because he's done anything to piss me off, but because every freakin' time I use my Gibson SG in a video I get asked something about AC/DC, or I get compared to Angus, or SOMETHING...as if Angus is the only SumBitch out there who ever strapped on an SG. Maybe he IS to some people, but I have honestly never taken note of his music until recent times. And this NOT because I was never impressed with AC/DC or anything...they were just one of those bands who came along at a time when I was not so diverse in terms of who I listened to alot. I had my favorites and I pretty well stuck to THEM, and so AC/DC has never been much in my thoughts until recently.

And so, to clear the air...and I've even posted a youtube video along these lines but I guess it didn't impress anyone, HAHAHA...here are some of the artists who have influenced me to play the Gibson SG long before anyone ever heard of Angus Young or AC/DC:

George Harrison - The Beatles

Martin Barre - Jethro Tull

Mick Abrahams - Early Jethro Tull (Nevermind that fat guy playing around in his livingroom...)

Carlos Santana - Santana

Hahahah...yes, I've been following the comments on youtube. For me, they were okay but I didnt think they were all that hot.

When I see an SG my first thoughts are Carlos Santana and Zappa.

Hey....for the next vid I'll buy an SG bass and really fuck their heads up :cu1:

Or, whats that gibson model? EB1?? EB3?? We could do a split screen lol
