Whew! Lets see- Blackmore, one of my heroes. Responsible for influencing more guitarists than you could shake a stick at. Page, oddly enough another of my favorites-wore out his Outrider album-twice! Gwynneth Paltrow- good actress, haven't followed her career too closely(my movie viewing is spotty at best-I'm a nerd). Now, I will admit that due to an overabundance of alcohol and recreational chemicals and herbs back in the 80's, my attention span is a bit short at times and my mind veers off the beaten track at other times, and sometimes does both at once, so my potential for weird is great. That said, I avoid enema territory at all costs-it reminds me too much of where I work...Oh, yeah-surf music and Dick Dale, i was raised on the Ventures and the Beach Boys. Dick Dale is a beast! Sorry if I miss a question-I will try to catch everything eventually.
