Brian is the greatest! This particular solo is my favorite Blush solo if not my favorite by anyone. It is a perfect demonstration of how to be competent, yet supremely melodic in ones playing. I've had this mp3 (from Captain Nemo!) for many years, but this is the first time I've seen the video - any chance you could fix the audio video sync issues in your vids and reup them? You're awesome though - and I'm subscribed! Thanks!
We've been good friends with him for the last three years or so. He gave me some "refresher" guitar lessons after a long layoff from playing. By the time he left my girls called him Uncle Brian and I worked on his guitars and effects from time to time.
My buddy now owns the guitar brian is playing on the ticketmaster show video that's posted here on youtube. :)
Awesome! "Uncle Brian." :) I'm known Brian on a personal level (though it doesn't sound like as much as you did) and visited him in Detroit and AZ and crashed at his place a couple of times in the past. I always found him to be a nice, generous guy. We're not in touch these days; I think it's more like if our paths cross, we catch up.
When I knew him, I think it was at a time when he wanted to talk with someone who had been a Refreshments fan and could reminisce about the old days with him and be interested in his current projects. I'm glad you're still in touch with him and I hope he'd doing well.
Can you reupload these? tho the Easy vid has 480p...

I don't know how to fix them. I was lucky I even figured out how to transfer what I did from DVD to video file.

Indeed he does! He's playing solo shows in Indiana these days, if you're anywhere near there.
