Steve Vai: Walking the Fine Line between Pagan and Christian
Guitar hero for the world, a personal hero for me. Teacher. Mentor. Idol. An extraordinary musician, who touched me with his unique human richness, and helped me this way to appreciate his art much more.
Queensryche and the Best I Can
I participated in a student exchange program in the fall of 1989, when I was 18 years old. That was the first time I went abroad to the Netherlands. The thing that stroke me the most was that the houses in the suburb had no fences at all.
Kevin Moore, the Awakening Force of Dream Theater
It took years for me to recognize the real genius of Kevin Moore.
Naturally, Dream Theater made a massive impact on me, even with the debut album titled When Day And Dream Unite.
Chris Cornell Passio
It’s a crystal clear memory of mine, when I saw the music video of Hands All Over on MTV. The television set was placed in the middle of the wall to wall, floor to ceiling bookshelf in the main room of my parents’ new house in Gödöllő, and for a short time, I had access to the music television channel.
Nothing More: Fade In / Fade Out
The Jamiroquai concert in 2005 was the first one his firstborn son wanted to accompany him. It was a pleasant stroll through the city park called Városliget with the four-year-old child, and when the doors opened, they discovered the open-air venue called Petőfi Csarnok.
For 500 Days
Another 100 days passed walking. I managed to continue the journey I’ve been going on for 500 days. Every blessed day I stroll 6 kilometer or more.
Stevie Ray Vaughan, Our Guardian Angel
Stevie Ray Vaughan was one of the greatest guitarists of all time, making a lasting impression as a singer as well, polishing his singing style from record to record.
400
I have been taking at least 8,000 steps every day for 400 days. What matters is not the 3229 kilometers traveled, but the fact that I move an hour or an hour and a half every day.
Ikigai
I have been flirting with the idea to learn Japanese for decades. The book titled Made In Japan by Sony co-founder Akio Morita had a huge and lasting impression on me. I consider Hayao Miyazaki’s movies to be the most valuable films ever produced.
Broken
In troubled times I turn to books more often, more frequently for help and wisdom, and always find comfort in them.
