Welcome to Riffs & Legends—where the spirit of hard rock and heavy metal lives on!
I’m a lifelong rock & metal fan, musician, and storyteller who grew up in San Antonio in the 1980s—a time when loud guitars, big hair, and headbanging anthems ruled the world. From the first time I heard Metallica’s crushing riffs, Guns N’ Roses’ raw energy, Iron Maiden’s galloping solos, and AC/DC’s bluesy power chords, I was hooked for life.
Not only have I spent decades collecting vinyl, concert memorabilia, and gear, but I also play guitar and bass, channeling my passion through the very instruments that shaped my heroes' sounds. Now, I’m bringing that love to this blog, where I share deep dives into the history, culture, and legacy of the music that defined a generation.
Rock and metal have never been just a phase for me—they’ve been a way of life. I’ve passed down this passion to my kids, now in their 30s, who grew up on the same legendary bands and keep the metal flame burning.
Through Riffs & Legends, I hope to connect with other fans, collectors, musicians, and headbangers who live and breathe this music. Whether you’re here for album breakdowns, insane tour stories, gear talk, or the best rock & metal memorabilia, this blog is for you.
So crank up the volume, dive into the stories, and let’s keep hard rock & heavy metal alive—one riff at a time! 🤘🔥
