That home church wouldnt happen to be The Way of the Cross Church would it? Because I have a cousin who plays the guitar at my church and his name is Delano.
Anyway back on topic...My biggest influences would be my uncle Michael, my cousin Delano,Israel Houghton,Jonathan Dubose, BB king, Jimi Hendrix.

So it really is a small world after all! I used to go to the Way of the Cross until about 7-years ago.

While I don't credit him as an influence per se', Steven Curtis Chapman is a better guitarist than I thoght. I used to think he just played acoustic rhythm with occasional excursions into electric land, but I saw him live once and he can really play. Rocked the house with a Telecater.

Stevie Ray Vaughn,Eric Clapton,Jimi Hendrix,George Harrison,Phil Keaggy,Neil Young,Michael Hedges,George Benson,Albert King,and a few more I can't remember at this time! About anybody who picked up the guitar that I knew of was a influence at one time or another.
