That's cool, Mike. My parents named me Slash Harrison as my first and middle name(family names). (They call me Harrison) What's funny is that I was born in 1977 before either was famous or ever heard of at all. Everyone thinks I was named after them. Coincidentally, I love his movies(H. Ford) and Slash's music, a lot. Mike's what I'm playing on my CD now; love him.

Good call! They have so much soul and are so expressive. Lots of emotions in their playing, which always moves me Two of my favs as well, along with many others of course.. Johnny Marr, Jimi Hendrix (of course,) Jimmy Page (of course,) Robert Fripp, David Long, Dean DeLeo, etc...

One of the greatest guitar players ever. HIs work on Ten Proved Blues was still alive and always pushing good rock music, something that greatly lacks in Rock Today. Blues was the soul of rock, Mike truly has it. Seeing Him Live is the closest ill have to seeing A stevie/Jimi type of figurehead on the Guitar. His Tones are Unreal, never relies on his effects, just uses them to paint textures. Nothing has it seems just roars Live, Alive, Evenflow, huge classic Rock solos. Keep on Rocking Mike and Pearl Jam! One of the Last real Rock N roll Bands.

I liked his solo's better in the 'Ten'-era, because they were much more bluesy, and powerfull. He is still great nowathesedays, but for some reason his solo's are to much hammerons-pullof-shreddish like playing, wich isn't as 'emotional' as those solo's back in the early 90's. He still has some solo's he plays amazing though!
