I actually meant to do this video a lot sooner and had gotten down the fill at the end, but I waited too long, forgot it, and figured screw it. ENJOY! Hahah...p.s. Sorry for the tinny audio quality, the microphone on my camera leaves a lot to be desired.

This summer I will be giving guitar lessons either from my house or from a place yet to be named, for a very reasonable price. Definitely contact me via MySpace, AIM, E-mail, etc. if you're interested in prices/available time slots, or just simply curious about me, my credentials, or lessons in general. Thanks!

Check out his music

A new myspace for Lawrence Lazarides. You really need to check out his demo tracks, he's starting to cook nicely adding more fusion to his ultra shred style.

Background:
Lawrence Lazarides is a bright young guitar player from Junior in Charlotte, North Carolina. His still at school at the moment but has some real potential in his playing. Lawrence started playing guitar when he was ten years old. He began straight away with lessonsfor a year which helped him focus and enabled him to teach himself for a number of years.

He practiced mostly rhythm guitar, but that changed when he was 14 when he first heard Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. He began to focus on technique and drew inspiration from the burgeoning instrumental guitar scene. These influences include: Paul Gilbert , RacerX, Jason Becker, Vinnie Moore, Yngwie Malmsteen, Buckethead and Michael Romeo with Symphony X.

After listening to Dream Theater and John Petrucci he started to focus on more fusion orientated players like: Greg Howe, Richie Kotzen, Frank Gambale, Scott Henderson,
Guthrie Govan, Wes Montgomery, Mike Stern, Pat Metheny, Grant Green, Jeff Beck, Joe Pass, George Benson and Wayne Krantz

Like Richard Daude, Lawrence is a Line6 POD XT, and a PRS Standard 24.

To find out more about the potential of this young player check out tracks like marachino or other music tracks.
