Jamming On Stage With EXODUS - Brain Dead

Jamming With EXODUS! I really had so much fun playing on stage with EXODUS in Orlando, Florida! Every one of the band members were so happy to see and play with me which made me even more excited to see them! Everybody was so kind and welcoming and I was so happy they knew me and were so excited! You know, just that day I told Gary Holt that I learned his solo and asked if I can play it on stage and he said that’ll be really cool and he likes playing the rhythm anyway! He taught me the riffs and then I learnt the solo by ear to surprise him. He told me to use his awesome new Blood Splattered V ESP Guitar on stage! I really love that guitar with all the blood and gore and it’s just so METAL! So Gary Holt! That’s one of the best guitars I’ve ever seen. I was So Excited to play with him. I’ve been looking forward to it for a long time!

Playing on stage with them was so incredible. I was just jamming with Gary Holt and I was enjoying it so much!!! Before the solo, I could see Gary Holt telling Lee Altus that I’m doing his solo! All of this was happening live on stage while playing which was just so awesome. Then I played the solo. I was playing with Gary Holt that time and I could see how happy and proud he was. That solo was the first time I’ve done those whammy tricks on stage and Gary Holt inspires me so much on that so I knew that I have to! Then, at the final end, I did the chords and Gary did the outro solo and in the end, we finished the riff together. That was such an unforgettable moment with him. And throughout the song, I got to jam with all the band members, had a special moment with Steve “Zetro” Souza and I could see how excited and happy they all were. These experiences is what I love about playing on stage and seeing all of the reactions of the band members and audience and seeing how happy and proud they all are. And the audience were amazing! They were fully chanting my name before and after the song which was amazing! I really, really had a memorable time on stage and it was the best way to end my trip to the US this year! Thank you so much Gary Holt and Exodus for inviting me to join you on stage and making this a very special experience!
