It's Friday, and Balloonfest is tomorrow, so make sure you're set to come check out Mark Tremonti opening day one of Balloonfest 2013! He's a great guitar player, and he sings pretty well, too! It's going to be a killer day tomorrow, with the local rock:
Here's a nice video compilation of several of Mark's killer solos all in one place. He rocks several, including "Blackbird", "Wayward One", "Brand New Start", "Buried Alive" and more! This video gives some fantastic close-up work of what he's doing, in case you want to learn what he's playing, or just get a good look.
2 days ago During a recent concert, Volbeat took a minute to remember Jeff.
3 days ago I would kill (well not to that extreme) to see 30 Seconds To Mars perform again here in El Paso.
Not only is Mark a great guitar player, but he surrounds himself with great musicians. Here's a guitar battle with popular vocalist/guitarist Myles Kennedy, from the Alter Bridge live DVD. Not only do you get to see how good Mark Tremonti is, but you really get to hear how good Myles is!
3 days ago She probably won't date you so don't bother asking, I've tried.
James Hetfield, Mark Tremonti, Eddie Van Halen...meet Tina. She's just 14 and she's already covering Eddie's solo in "Eruption".
This week's shredder is Mark Tremonti. He's a great player, and a fantastic songwriter. He's written huge songs for Creed, Alter Bridge and now his solo band, Tremonti. He's got a great sense of melody and song structure, and on top of that, he's a good singer and an amazing guitarist!
5 days ago I am obsessed with Young Guns and love their followup album to their debut "All Our Kings Are Dead" and wondered where they wrote and recorded their new album. Somewhere magical must have inspired such an amazing album. Now I know and understand.

This week, I want to feature the guitar skills of Mark Tremonti. He's kind of an underrated guitar player, since he tends to play more for the song instead of the shred, but when he cuts loose, he can really cut loose! I found these videos a while back, with guitar shred king Rusty Cooley and Mark trading off licks.
Tony MacAlpine is our guitar shredder for the week, and we've seen some old songs, new songs, collaborations and learned a little about one of the premier guitar players out there. If you haven't been aware of him before now, hopefully you've found a cool new guitar player to share with your friends!
Maybe you've also found some cool new ideas and licks you can learn from one of his early instructional videos, too!
