More From Tommy Shaw

I'm always happiest trying new instruments - and honestly enjoy playing, say, the glockenspiel with radiohead as much as i do the guitar. i think regular touring has forced me to play the guitar more than anything else, which is why i'm probably most confident playing that. and whist i'd be lost if i couldn't play it too, i dislike the totemic worship of the thing... magazines, collectors, and so on. i enjoy struggling with instruments i can't really play.
Struggle Thinking Trying
I believe i love my guitar more than the others love theirs. for john and paul, songwriting is pretty important and guitar playing is a means to an end. while they're making up new tunes i can thoroughly enjoy myself just doodling around with a guitar for a whole evening. i'm fascinated by new sounds i can get from different instruments i try out. i'm not sure that makes me particularly musical. just call me a guitar fanatic instead, and i'll be satisfied.
Believe Mean Guitar
The gut-strung guitar, the classical guitar, that is a whole different world on its own. when you think what the guitar can do and what every individual player does with a guitar, everyone has their own identity coming through the guitar.
Player Thinking Guitar
What interested me about chuck berry was the way he could step out of the rhythm part with such ease, throwing in a nice, simple riff, and then drop straight into the feel of it again. we used to play a lot more rhythm stuff. we'd do away with the differences between lead and rhythm guitar. you can't go into a shop and ask for a "lead guitar". you're a guitar player, and you play a guitar.
Nice Simple Player
I could play a cop, i could play a crook, i could play a lawyer, i could play a dentist, i could play an art critic-i could play the guy next door. i am the guy next door. i could play catholic, jewish, protestant. as a matter of fact, when i did the odd couple, i would do it a different way each night. on monday i'd be jewish, tuesday italian, wednesday irish-german-and i would mix them up. i did that to amuse myself, and it always worked.
Monday Art Couple
After months of playing air guitar to 'free bird', what really got me into guitar was watching a documentary about jimi hendrix and picking up the woodstock soundtrack. listening to his version of 'star spangled banner' and 'purple haze.' my brother played acoustic guitar and, idolising him, i thought, 'i'm going to get a guitar.'

There are times when a lover longs to be also a father and a brother: he is jealous of the years he hasn't shared.
Brother Father Jealous
My brother could not write about trifles. even in society he became animated only when some serious discussion was engaged in, and he complained of feeling 'a dull pain in the brain'--a physical pain, as he used to say--when he was with people who cared only for small talk.
