Jon Gates—Guitar Hero

On this week’s episode, I talk to my friend Jon Gates, who has been playing guitar for about 20 years. We talk about practice and musicianship, his time in a church band, and the time he got to play a $45k guitar. We also talk about musical influences and muse over the distinguishing features and significance of certain bands and genres of rock music.

BONUS: the episode ends with a recording of Jon covering an Elliott Smith song.
