    To see Eric play live with his amps is an experience. His ability to play at 110 percent for a solid hour and a half with his pristine creamy ultra high gain amp will leave you hooked for life. His Mezzabarbara amp is do feaking clear and full sounding for this type of amp.

    Man, that was amazing! Gotta be one of the best guitar players we have seen at Norm's. Love that groove and the tone from his guitar was incredible. He ripped it up for sure.

    Hey Eric! nice to see you! Remember back in the day, you were around 11 or 12 years old then. You and your mom came into The Blue Tone Cafe in Easton... That Strat was bigger than you... I saw you hit those first licks and called my good friend, Jim Weider, from The Band. He said, bring that kid down to Doylestown and I will have him get up on stage with us. With his other band, The Honky Tonk Gurus. If you recall, while you were jammin it, Jim just unplugged his Tele and said, "I can retire now!" So, if you see this note. Great to see you. Robby Fraser is so proud of what you have done over the years and touring with you in Europe. Nice jams at Norm's!

      Randy Wilson, probably best bedroom player you never heard. Play garage style with some buds. My thing is I didn’t touch a guitar til about 5 years ago, and now I’m 60. LOVE playing and find it just a blast to learn old rock songs from my younger days! Only regret is I waited so long.

I'm sorry, but that's not something that's just learned or practiced n to being That good... Look @ Chris Stapleton... I dont even listen to country music anymore.. but that guy is a beast. I couldnt sing like that if I wanted to.. lol The key is figuring out what your gift is and tapping n to it... 👍 Honestly it's a simple as praying, talking to God, He loves you man, and He wants to have a relationship with you... Its as simple as talking to Him and asking Him to help you, and He will... and He will show you, You'll learn and see so many things, that sadly others will miss out on. But also you'll find out, you'll see what those gifts are He's given you and you can begin to use them more effectively in your life. Usually it will be something that doesnt come easily for those around you... God Bless you bud 👍🙂
