    Default Eric Gales at Namm 2011 (video)

    Awesome player. Hope he's on the right track now and won't be imprisoned again for doing drugs and other stuff.

    I'm a big Gales fan too and I hope he can stay away from temptation. He's so creative and we really need him to keep producing. His last album "Relentless" really tells the story honestly of where his head is at.

    He looks good and healthy in the video. Thanks for posting it.

    I remember him as one heck of a young guitar player back in the day. What happened?

    Gotcha... He did run into a lot of fame in a short time. Loved his Strat tone back then... very "woody" sounding.

    EDIT: He does look good, and sounds great. Let's hope for continued, clean success for Mr. Gales!

    By the way, I have seen Eric for the first time when he was 16 or 17 at a Black Rock concert in New York. It is really sad that he was driven by demons, but he looks okay now.
