He has played bars, high school assemblys, churches, ballrooms, auditoriums, arenas and festivals. At 19, he achieved the gig most musicians dream of--New York's famed Carnegie Hall. He has played with an 11-year old guitar prodigy, a classical guitarist he met in a mall a few hours before and everything in between, including the Youngstown Symphony Orchestra.

Legend has it Jimi Hendix (or Eric Clapton, depending on where you look) once said Phil was the greatest guitarist in the world. There's no evidence to support the legend itself but there are a multitunde of reasons to support the accuracy of what was said. One thing is certain; Phil's talent is tempered by his humility.
