It's refreshing to read someone who's flawed and has a lot of gripes about something he's passionate about. Reminds the reader of the ugly side of being human.
I’m happy to see that kind of feedback! Definitely. Flawed people are fun. I think that’s what makes Amadeus such a fun movie. Of course Mozart is interesting, but it’s far more compelling to watch a story about a contemporary who is absolutely bitter and jealous about being a contemporary of a living legend.
OH MY GOODNESS. Led Zeppelin is my favorite band funny enough. The reason I stuck around was because I was sucked in by the brilliant writing. You turned me on to Van Halen, it seems. I knew of the band and Eddie, but never took the time to listen to them. That left field ending caught me so of guard, but it felt so right. You have a new fan.
The most immature part of me couldn't help but think "What if one guy was responsible for killing John Lennon and Eddie Van Halen, while simultaneously being responsible for kickstarting Jimmy Page's heroin addiction?"
My original plan was to have him be responsible for the death's of those mentioned, plus John Bonham, Keith Moon, and Bon Scott, but I couldn't find a way to make it work.
This is the most fictional thing I have ever written, as I do not believe there is anybody on Earth less musically inclined than I am. Having said that, I've spent a lot of time around brilliant guitarists and I am a massive EVH fan.
This was just great! You really got me hooked in the beginning and kept me guessing. The ending didn't disappoint.
Thank you for the kind words, I truly appreciate that.
That was great, I could not tell where it was going. I liked how you kept me guessing right up until the end.
I appreciate that!
Great story. The pace you kept during Eddie's guitar solo was excellent, really drew me in!
Thanks, I really appreciate that! However, I almost feel trying to describe an Eddie solo with words is futile.
That was great. I plan on doing analysis of my favorite lyrics(which Kashmir is one).
I want to reiterate once more how much I love Led Zeppelin.

Also thanks for the kind words. I appreciate you.
Just to set the record straight, Led Zeppelin is also my favorite band! I like to write from the POV of those who are fundamentally not me.
That was incredible! For some reason, I got vibes of one of Harlan Ellison's Hollywood induction-turned-sciencefiction romps from Angry Candy.
This story was imaginative and eaually well-versed in rock history. Amazing job!
Thanks! I really appreciate that!!
Nice job my friend, thanks for sharing
I appreciate it!
Legendary pic of EVH!
I've got to con people into visiting my page somehow!
Dude, who can not like a story about rock! Amazing.
Cheers for that!!
Love it, very well done character, the maximalism, the hypocrisy, the contempt, very human indeed, also love the Chapman easter-egg.
Thanks!!! Spoilers

Fascinating, especially the way you describe the technical details about music and rock culture. Is this fiction, or are you a musician yourself?

That is really cool! A testament to your fiction writing skills. Please keep the stories coming!
Thank you kindly!
