Not sure if any of you have heard of this guy Scott Kroeker but I personally think he is awesome so I thought I'd share.
You can listen to his album here.
I've found recently that it is hard to find any new melodic instrumental rock acts about and all that's about is just shred fests all over the place. Just my opinion anyway.

I am assuming your going to St. Davids Hall.. shall see your there fellow cardiffian

Damn right. I went the last time and won one of the 3 meet and greet passes. Joe's manager came in and gave us all free left over posters from the tour, Dave (as in bass) came in and took pics with us aswell and had a chat. Then satch came in pulled out a marker pen and said "ok so what am I signing first", I couldn't stay at the meet and greet for long though coz i was shattered and had work the next day (typical eh).

Btw dude, unless I'm much mistaken you contacted me some time ago (like a year ago) on myspace about forming a band, the name SirChick definately rings a bell.

Ok this post is long enough now I'll stop lol.

Well your friend contacted me and he sounded like an idiot but mentioned you who like joe satriani and i thought.. well ill get more sound out of this drunk then most likely :P but that was me yup.

Ahh lol. Yeh I think I know what mate that is, he has been "playing" for about a year and a half now but he hasn't learned to hold his pick properly yet. Kind of a lost cause I spose. I just notice I got your hotmail addy aswell (or an old one of yours or something).

mine is sirchick@gmail.com... never on it though.
