I'm an English teacher from Germany, but before I started teaching I studied audio engineering.

Frost*, It Bites, Toto, Guthrie Govan, Paul Gilbert, Steve Morse, King's X, Platypus, Ty Tabor, Steve Lukather, Kino, Brett Garsed, Planet X, Jordan Rudess, Karizma, Rush, Spock's Beard, Steve Vai, Sting
