Thanks to:

Mom, Dad, Joe, and Jaime for my first pieces of musical equipment and for all their love and support.
My band members: Spirit, Jeff, and Jim for inspiring me, writing with me, and playing with me (you know what I mean!).
George for teaching me strong lessons in both band and personal relationships.
Burk for appreciating and respecting what I do as a guitarist and what we, the band, do as musicians.
Ry for teaching me my first guitar licks and leaving such an impact on me, that I was compelled to pick up a guitar.
Joe Mullin for teaching me many guitar tricks and for helping me develop a lot of my style.
My brother, Joe, for playing with me (again we all know what I mean!), allowing me to bounce ideas off of him, for his honest opinion of what I write, and for his musical talent as I would not have learned half the albums I can play without him!
Jaime for watching us play every time and understanding my passion and love for music. And because she would kill me if I didn't give her her own bullet! Just kidding, honey.
