It's been two episodes – and nearly two years – since there's been a guest on The Matt Kollock Show. That…

I think the first time I entered any kind of music-related contest was when I was about 14 years old. My little guitar buddies and I heard about a guitar shred-off competition happening on the campus of the University of…
