Don’t understand how really good players like this go under the radar. Lots of hidden gems on youtube to be discovered.

He also looks like he could curl a large amount of weight in the gym

That Velvet Revolver one doesn’t sound like something Slash would have played. Interesting.

Simple. They become studio players and hired guns.

I suspect that only a tiny fraction of great players are on social media at all. Most of them probably teach and have a non-music job as well, given that it’s very difficult to earn a living in the industry, e.g,. to be a first-call session player, for example, or to have a sufficiently profitable band.

Crazy playing!

Also, he reminds me of arm wrestling champ Schoolboy.

Hey, a fellow AW fan!

Devon’s going _very_ easy on him. haha There’s another video where Todd Hutchings (personal fave) crushes Schoolboy after holding him like an inch from being pinned. That famous Todzilla side pressure.

Anyway, yeah, a resemblance!
