Hey all. My name is Eric, and I'm a programmer living in San Francisco. I bought a guitar 2 years ago, inspired by Jari Mäenpää of Ensiferum and Wintersun fame, but didn't pick it up until 2 weeks ago when I found and bought Rocksmith on a whim. I'm practicing a half hour to an hour every day now and hope to be able to play some sweet metal riffs eventually. Check my last.fm and let me know if we have any favorite artists in common http://www.last.fm/user/zeeky Cheers
