Michael Dolce: rule #1 never argue with a producer
I remember walking into the studio, the producer started playing the track as I was setting up and this over whelming feeling of sickness came over me. I thought to myself this sounds nothing like Vinnie Moore or Joe Satriani what am I suppose to do on this track? Things got worse when the producer wanted me to go direct from my Boss pedals into the desk, even I knew that was going to sound like a swarm of bees. I argued the point (rule #1 never argue with a producer), we did it his way of course so we went direct. Then the real fun started, trying to play over this track was like learning to play guitar all over again. I felt useless, nothing I played worked I just wanted to get out of there. At that point I knew I wasn’t ready for this, I needed to go home and start listening to all sorts of music and styles I.e pop, funk, R&B, straight rock etc… So I started building up a variety of patches and ideas, preparing myself for anything that was thrown at me, this was a must if I wanted to follow my vision as a full time session guitarist. more
