Johnathan Lewis Lane


It's all in the magazines
My Name: Johnathan Lewis Lane
My Age: Twenty-five
The Day on my Birth Certificate: May 16th, 1984
Gender: Male
Would like to marry a: Woman
I especially like: Alison


Things the magazines love to print:
I'd love to discuss:
- The anatomy of music.
- Blues guitar.
- The feeling of being onstage.
- The golden years.
- Being on tour with the guys again.

Let's not discuss that:
- Irresponsible bands that I've toured with.
- My personal life, I dont care who you are, it's my life.
- The fact that I'm loosely devoted to this band at all. We all have demons, mine just don't like old faces.
- How much I actually hate to cover the song "Neon" every night.
- Fans asking me where I get my customs.

What you won't find in the magazines:
I'm a huge smart-a**, trust me, I answer every question technically the same. I'm endorsed by Fender, nobody appears to care. I'm a lyricist that writes just about every song we perform.


About Me:

I was raised by two hippies. They forever listened to blues and jazz music, always high as kites. I grew attached to this lifestyle and the music, but also drifted from it. I never lost my taste for the music , but I developed a liking for screamo music. This led to me to teaching myself to play blues guitar, I'd study for hours and practice even more. Around ten, I moved in with my uncle, who taught me to play the guitar with even more advanced techniques, like those of bluegrass and creole musicians.

Getting past all that, music literally runs through my blood. I eat, sleep, and breath that stuff. Ever since that faithful night that I was brought into the world of cheering crowds and rocking tunes, I've never looked towards anything else. I've bought many instruments, but the one I loved the most was my first guitar, a Gibson '58 Reissue Les Paul in Heritage Cherry Sunburst. Though I self-taught myself most of the instruments, it was the guitar that I was dedicated to and had down like the back of my hand by the age of nine. I began listening to old cabaret bands and reading Edgar Allen Poe poems and short stories, and decided I wanted to be a rockstar. My dream was put into action when I started Roaring Thunder, with my friends. It was all going awesome until our stupid b***h of a manager gave our singer the idea that I was her boyfriend, when I was already in a committed relationship with Alison. Then one night everything went under and we went our own ways, I pursued a solo career and made many friends along the way, including John Mayer, who taught me to always play guitar with my heart. I've never strayed from his advice once before, and I don't intend to. After my solo career drifted out of the light I proposed to Alison, we got married, had kids, and now we're being brought back with the rest of Roaring Thunder.
