http://www.guitarBreakdown.com - Phil X & The Drills Interview - Part 2- Phil shares his thoughts about Learning Guitar and going to Music Schools - GuitarBreakdown

We're FINALLY back … with more insight into the intimate workings of the great Phil-X 's brain functions.

It's been a busy year … but we are finally getting back to editing these interview sessions with Phil. We asked him the questions you all wanted us to ask … and he had some amazing responses.

We hope you enjoy hearing his thoughts and stick around for more to come.

In these interviews he shares with us everything from how he got started playing guitar ... how he went about practicing and learning guitar ... how he landed session gigs ... and a bunch of funny and informative stories about the gigs and tours he's been involved in. From Bon Jovi, Tommy Lee, Alice Cooper, Triumph, Kelly Clarkson, Avril Lavigne, Chris Daughtry to his own projects like Powder and The Drills.

We hope you stick around for all the parts in this series of interview sessions with Phil X. There really is a lot of great information shared and more importantly ... IT'S FRIGGIN PHIL X !!! His amazingly unassuming personality and penchant for fun and laughter makes it pretty easy to just sit back and listen to this guy talk.

If you haven't already ... head over to his bands website ...

And throw down your hard earned cash and get their CD's ... it's probably the best way you'll find to spend your money. But seriously, I'm a guy that listens to mostly rock/blues/fusion guitar CD's ... horn and piano players ... music that is less about song writing and more about me hearing and learning new ideas for my own guitar playing. But listening to Phil X and The Drills has brought me back down to earth ... grounded my feet once again and helped me back to why I started playing guitar in the first place. Listen to his music and you'll rediscover for yourself what most of us lose sight on ... and that's combining great guitar playing with great riffs and fun band oriented music.
