I've always been very image prone, along the lines of bands like Black Sabbath and even Devo.

Who doesn't like to play Black Sabbath tunes!

That's really the thing that got me into playing a lot - getting excited about playing along with my favorite bands like Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.

I was mostly influenced by bands like Black Sabbath and Judas Priest - Metallica's 'Kill 'Em All' was also a hell of an inspiration.

'Planet Caravan' by Black Sabbath is such a delicate song from such a surprising place.

Then as I got older, I always gravitated towards the hard stuff, Born To Be Wild, then Black Sabbath.
