A very special day with Forbidden! This is a memory of a super fun time we spent with the Metal band Forbidden. Their drummer, Chris Kontos and his wife Gwynne invited us to their studio (which was the first time we ever met) to meet and watch them rehearse their songs and also give me the chance to jam with them! We’ve become very great friends with them all and Craig Locicero, their guitarists, has taught me a lot of new things and different techniques about his playing which is always very interesting to learn about! He also introduced me to the band Mastodon and also even gave me the opportunity to meet them in person a few months later!! From here, we’ve met Chris, Gwynne and Craig many times and they are all very special people for me. In this video, I am playing their song 'Forbidden Evil' with them (for the first time too!) where I can enjoy this very memorable moment of music. I learned the intro of this song just on the spot, as Steve Smyth taught me there! So a very great day with Forbidden that was, and I wanted to share this with you all! #forbidden #forbiddenevil #mayaneelakantan #chriskontos #craiglocicero - @mayaneelakantan
