Diemonds performing their Inspirational song titled Hey! I Gotta “Get The F&$K Outta Here”

Video is courtesy of the MapleMetalRecords YouTube channel

This song (Hey! I Gotta) “Get The F&$K Outta Here” is for everyone “stuck” in say a bad situation, a bad relationship or a bad marriage.

It can inspire someone to open their mind to a viable solution, because Bad Situations never do get any better (been there, done that).

Some wait far too long to finally say “Hey! I gotta Get The F&$K Outta Here” and then actually do it.

Diemonds is a super talented Band.

Free Live New Years Eve 2013 Concerts in Toronto, Mississauga, Barrie and Niagara Falls

Michael Staertow is sharing his Christmas Music CD titled Acoustic Christmas

Michael Staertow is the amazing Guitarist who played with Lou Gramm, last summer at the CNE Bandshell.

Lou Gramm was the Lead Singer and Songwriter with the 80’s band Foreigner. Superb band. Amazing lyrics. Memorable sound.

Lou Gramm is touring again, after his battle with a Brain Tumor. Michael Staertow is on Lead Guitar. Close your eyes and you would swear that it was Foreigner up on stage.

Michael’s Acoustic Christmas CD, was recorded with  Andy Knoll. No vocals. Just mellow Guitar and Keys. Perfect for get togethers around Christmas and New Years.

I have a post about the Acoustic Christmas CD on my Zenfolio site. Thought that the visitors to this site might also be interested.

It really shows off Michael’s range of talent. On stage with Lou Gramm, he delivers a powerful Guitar presence. The Acoustic Christmas CD is a melodic reinterpretation of Christmas Classics. Beautifully played, well-arranged and produced.

How often do you have a major Musician “sharing” a CD with their fans?

Click on this line to visit Michael’s Facebook page, where you will find links to each track. He recently had a post which featured links to all the tracks from the Acoustic Christmas CD.

He is an awesome Guitarist. Clearly a Master of the Guitar.

I’ll sum up in two words: He Rocks!!!
