In some ways, leads are easier because you have the luxury of time to discover the character. " - John C. Reilly " I kinda taught myself how to play guitar, and I still play to this day. It’s become a pretty big part of my life. " - John C. Reilly " For a while I had a blues band in L.A., but I realized I was too optimistic to play the blues.
