Why Guitar "Villains", you ask? Because villains are cooler than heroes, it's just a fact. Today’s Guitar Villain is John Petrucci. A legendary riff-writer, almighty shred-lord, dedicated gym-rat, purveyor of fine bourbon, and all-around nice guy, this bearded phenom (who some believe to be a wizard or even God himself) is here to spill his guitar secrets. John has recently dropped on us his second solo album entitled Terminal Velocity, which we’ll dive deep inside. I’ll also be challenging the prog prince in ways he’s never been challenged before, and I am honored to have him as the inaugural guest of the very first episode of Guitar Villains. Check out John's brand new solo album, Terminal Velocity, streaming everywhere now: http://bit.ly/JP_GuitarVillains #GuitarVillains
