The Above photo "Metalocalypse" is a new and popular animated cartoon and in the show is the animated metal band "Dethlok". This unique series is very popular with many and the Bass player "William Murderface" is played by Bryan Beller (shown below w/ Mike Keneally) Bryan and Mike are virtuoso players and will be here dishing out some serious playing for your enjoyment. Mike Keneally has one of the more impressive resumes in the progressive music business. Early recognition came from his stint as a Frank Zappa "stunt guitarist", and a Zappa 1988 tour band member - playing both both guitar and keyboards. Since then he has worked with a succession of high profile musicians, ranging from Steve Vai, through Dweezil Zappa, and most recently, Dethklok.

Bryan Beller has an equally impressive resume and he also writes some great articles for bass player magazine. And most of you already know what kind of killer chops the Travis Larson Band has. TLB will inspire you to be better musicians. Listen....the chance to see this caliber of playing in an intimate setting for $15.00 is a golden opportunity!

Greetings, When the weather changes so does your guitars action! Temperature and humidity changes the way your guitar neck behaves. If you wake up one day soon and feel like your guitar is too difficult to play or the strings are so low it's buzzing. Bring it by for a tune up. It's usually very inexpensive and can get you feeling good about your guitar and even make you play better! No one likes a poor playing instrument that makes you struggle to play things that you know you can play! See ya soon and happy picking!
