About jeremy woods

am currently 28 years of age. I am the only child and product of two musicians that played everything from Rock to Gospel. And a closet with a collection of over 1,000 (vinyl) records in all. You can quote me on that one. I started drums when I was probably five.. My father had a garage band, I was fascinated with beating the hell out of things. I couldn't reach the pedals though, so I used to sit on his knee and play with my hands. I learned I could beat the hell out of things in 4/4 pretty good. (So there was rythm there...hmm.)

Long about two years later, when I realized everyone in the world was playing guitar, and the only way to make friends was to do the same, (this being because there was a different guitarist in and out of the garage almost everynight), I found a second generation beater in the spare bedroom that had strings on it created from remnants of the Civil War. (old) Nobody really had much time to teach me chords, we were pretty poor then as well, so I didn't get to take lessons. I sat out in the garage off to a corner and watched with my guitar... I noticed redundancy in the finger placements and did a kind of process of elimination, until it sounded good. E
