[E]
[F#m] [Em] I personally haven't been in a band in 13 years, so, and when I think about my life
and my career, I don't think any of the bands that I worked with really influenced [F#m] me [G] as
far as what I do and how I [E] write.
You know, even the first band I was in, I was 21, it
was already [G] an established band, and I came in and I was really brought in not only [C#] as
a guitar player but as a writer, so I was just kind of being me within the realm of
that.
When I played Mr.
Big, I didn't really change much at all, I just kind of [E] got in
with them and with myself in the [D] context.
So [Am] [Bm] I don't feel like me personally [C] that my
[E] style was changed that [Gm] much from any of the [A] bands.
Maybe [C] when I played with Stanley Clark,
I had a different influence because I was more of a jazz thing, [Em] but I was already kind
of playing that kind of way anyway, so I don't look at it that way.
I think my influences
personally came out of stuff that happened when I was a kid, my records [E] that were in
my [C] house that my parents had, you know, and there was a lot of soul records, R&B records,
but then also the classic rock records, and [Bm] I think that's where my main influence kind
of came from [G]
stylistically, but it's not something I [E] even think about because now it's
like I just [G] kind of do what I do [A] and [Bm] it happens.
I [C] have been in a bunch of bands [D] through the
years of course.
I think it was more [Em] the time of my life that I was in those bands [Bm] that
mattered more [C] than the band.
When I was really [Em] young, I was in a band in Buffalo, New York,
and I was [Bm] experimenting and I didn't know [C] much of anything, so I just kind of made it
up as I went along.
Later [Bm] on when I got into some more successful bands, there was a different
time in [C] my life.
I lived in Los Angeles then, and [Em] now when I became [D] successful, so things
changed there.
[C] So I guess there's to some degree probably unknown to me some intangible
influence [F#] that occurs.
[Em] Of course playing with David Lee Roth, that was a huge thing.
I'd
be [Am] foolish not to mention that that didn't have some [G] effect on [E] me, but not so much musically
as it was just to be around, go from nothing [A] in Buffalo, New York to [C] within 24 hours having
paparazzi follow me and [D] Dave around.
So that was a very sharp learning curve.
[E]
That was
[D] a big thing for me.
It [Em] was like getting a PhD [B] in showbiz working [E] with Dave.
So that
was a huge help, but [G] not so much musically.
[D] I'm [G] very glad what I [Am] learned from him [G] still
helps me to this day and to [D] understand [G] this business and how it works.
I think it's more
the times of my life than anything else.
Well, I think my situation is I guess very different
from Billy and Richie's because I was in one band for 25 years.
This music is straight
ahead and it's more from the [C] soul.
[F#]
[Em] I think people come see the Winery Dogs and I [G] think
that's what makes this band stand [B] out is because [Bm] it's all about the songs and the vocals first
and foremost.
The [C] musicianship [E] is kind of the icing on the cake.
Whereas [Bm] with other
bands I've been a part of, [C] it was all about the musicianship, but people couldn't really
latch [D] on to the songs or the vocals.
So I think [Em] this band, I think [Bm] that's why people
react so [C] strongly to this band and this band's appeal is so [E] broad [Bm] because yes, it's got this
[C] really great musicianship that people can be impressed [Bm] by and watch and be entertained
by, but at the end of the day [C] it's all about the song and every song [Bm] from the Winery Dogs
is [D] memorable and it's got hooks and riffs [C] that latch on to you.
So I think that's a
big [E] difference from any of the things I've done in [F#] the past.
