Five Finger Death Punch – Wrong Side of Heaven
This was one of the videos I shared to promote my Road to 200 mile Tuna run effort in Fall of 2016.
It was also an influence the drew me to the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP).
Get the Heck Outta Here
I met Steve Vai after a show in Ireland, he was really kind to meet with me and Giju, and we all chatted for about a half and hour.
Playing songs from him in high school bands was really cool, but meeting the man behind the music was fascinating. He is an amazingly grounded and just a humble dude.
He played a new song that night, which eventually came out, but all we knew then was that the show was recorded.
Giju asked if there may be a Vai does Europe (we coincidentally followed him to Paris too, but didn’t get to go to the show).
He said, “Possibly, it’s hard to say, but we’re recording to see what we have after the tour… like tonight, I missed a note.”
To put this into perspective, the song he would have captured that night is an instrumental over 9 minutes long, and he missed one note.
What a dude.
Code Monkey
I have been waiting 10 years since this song came out to work for someone named Rob who asked me to build a login page; close enough a guy named Tony did and it won an award.
This song has been my ringtone since I have had a smartphone.
All of Johnathan Coultan (JoCo)’s content is on his wiki page including free song downloads, lyrics, and guitar tabs.
