It’s with immense pleasure that I announce that I’ve joined the historic band “Custodie Cautelari”. Paolo Zanetti, their longtime guitarist, will soon be leaving on tour with Ruggeri. I had the chance to meet Paolo during an evening, but I already knew of his reputation for some time! Taking his place won’t be an easy task! Dates will always be published on the home page, starting from March 14th in Moniga del Garda (Bs)! ...
On March 29th I’ll be holding a seminar at the pantamusica school in Imperia where I’ll demonstrate some solos and rhythms and discuss some topics that I teach in the famous RLS Extreme rock guitar course by Donato Begotti. Teaching RLS over these two years has been a great source of satisfaction for me. I’ve had (and am having) the great fortune of having students with the right mentality, who approach the course with determination and grit. And after an 8-month tour de force (it’s my duty to make the course at the limit of their endurance)…they reap the rewards! ...

Here’s my metronome for you: Click here My goal was to have a metronome always available to integrate with the “Chromatic Warm Up” library…and so, here it is!! The metronome includes some useful features such as delay settings a stopwatch (to measure practice time) the very useful function to change tempo and note grouping (sixteenth notes and triplets) without changing picking speed! Very useful to properly balance and mix the two practice modes! ...
On May 3rd at Beer Room in Pontinvrea (SV) I’ll be playing with Silent Sea…NEW LINE UP!!

So get ready for an almost completely renewed setlist, and Antonio Cannoletta in great shape on vocals!
