Crazy Life...

I have read 102 out of 547 pages of my biography and I have to say that Slash had a really crazy childhood. He did BMX biking and destroyed property by doing so. He did drugs, drank alcohol and stole from a variety of different stores but he manly stole records and cassettes from a music store that he later worked at, which I find odd. The one thing I found really interesting is that he started playing guitar at the same age as me and he learned from an old beat up acoustic guitar that only had one string and now he’s a famous guitarist.  It makes me think that if I practice a lot that maybe I could be as good as him. Another thing I discovered that Slash and I have in common is that we both love animals. He manly stole pets from a pet store, especially lizards and snakes but he cared for animals such as I do. In conclusion I have found out that learning guitar and forming a band is a lot harder than it looks, even though I already knew learning guitar wasn’t going to be easy but now I know that forming a band takes a lot of hard work and determination. I know this because he told the stories of him and his friends forming their first band all the way to him joining Guns and Roses which was his first band that actually became famous. 

 

Got my biography!!!!

Today, I went out and got the biography I needed for my English class.  The person’s biography I chose for this project is Slash, I chose him because he is my favourite guitarist and also the person who interested me into playing guitar.  It started when I got Guitar Hero, as soon as I beat the game I unlocked more characters and Slash was one of them.  Then I started taking interest into his band, Guns and Roses and I decided that I should start playing an instrument.  So I picked the guitar.  Now I get to read about the life of one of my idols and I can’t wait to get started and I can’t wait to see how his life could be similar to mine.
