Stevie D says "it's not always about being the best guitarist, it's about the craft, and most important, the song". He sits with America's Podcaster, Kurt Caceres, to talk about guitar greats in the history of Rock-n-Roll. He studied Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and Angus young, but "Eddie Van Halen was shredding in ways that no one had ever seen or done before and no guitarist understood what was happening" exclaims Stevie. You couldn't be a guitar player in his generation without being influenced by Eddie. "They say to never meet your hero's, well often times the bigger they are, the nicer they are", Stevie says of the times he met Eddie in person. "The intro to Mean Street, was like, wtf was he doing, it was so foreign and alien to the industry" says Stevie. Starting his musical career on piano, he fell into guitar after a woman broke his heart, so he locked himself away for months distracting himself with the guitar, which would end up being his instrument of choice for life. Like many kids of the 80's, his parents would take his Motley Crue or KISS albums because they were considered violent, to sexy and devil worshipping. Of course, every parent of the 80's was wrong, but Stevie followed that path and became a rock star himself. Finally, Stevie digs deep into his decades of sobriety and the daily struggle many face, especially during a time of pandemic. From performing in front of 70,000 fans to flying coach, this is a behind the scenes look inside the life of a Rock-n-Roll band.
