Doug’s personal record collection includes everything from Robert Johnson to Led Zeppelin: “I still love blues and classic rock music the most. I’m not really interested in following whatever is trendy. Im just gonna stick to what I do best, do it to the best of my ability and play from the heart”. Doug was also once a highly sought after guitar teacher, at one point he was teaching over 70 students a week.
