Took my son (E for the rest of the post) to Monsterpalooza in Pasadena CA (saw someone else post about it several hours ago) to meet CMFT and it was AMAZING! We did the autograph session (got 3 things signed...Corey's "Seven Deadly Sins" book, E's 25th anniversary dual CD set, and a photo, got to spend several mins chatting with Corey. Talked about E and I's favorite SK songs, the fact that SK posted E's Halloween photo when he dressed as Sid on their IG Stories, E's favorite songs to play on guitar, and other rando stuff. Then we did the photo op! I was in a wheelchair due to spinal surgery less than 2 weeks ago, but we had bought the tickets months ago, before I knew I needed surgery. At the photo op, CT was super sweet helping me and making sure I was good, thanked us for coming to the signing and photo. Just an all around great guy who was VERY easy to talk to!!! I wish I had gotten a video of how much E was shaking before and after the autograph session!!!! E dressed as Sid both Sat & Sunday...went w/black jumper and Sid's PDF-D (Elephant mask) on Sat and his Red jumper and Sid's WW2 BCD mask on Sun. Even got some photos w/others in SK jumpers and masks! Definitely something I know ill never forget!!!!

My son has been playing guitar for just under 3 years. He has been practicing this song for months, for his HS Talent Show, but it was cancelled due to lack of interest. His freshman yr he played Smells Like Teen Spirit. & sophomore yr he played Vendetta in Jim Root's Jumper and Mask (I can post that video too if interested). He has been working on not having to look at his guitar all the time but he also knows that will come with practice! He plays about 2-2.5 hrs a day, on school nights and closer the 3.5-4 hrs a day weekends, vacation & holidays. He also still takes lessons for 1 hr/week on Saturdays. Hope you guys enjoy!!!!
