    A little about me and this channel:
    My name is James Aubrey IV and I just recently graduated college from Iowa State University. After college I decided to take a leap of faith. So I moved to San Diego California to pursue my passion for videography/ RUclips. Overall I'm a pretty chill person, outside of RUclips I like to longboard, dance, play video games, lift weights and hangout with my friends. I know that success on RUclips won't happen overnight but I'm willing to stay patient and put in the work to try to prefect my craft daily. This RUclips channel will be centered around my life after college. You will be able to see all of the ups and downs on my journey to success. So if you like the content make sure you subscribe so you can be apart of the Rome Life Family. (Let's build our own personal Rome's together.)
    What is the Rome Life ? And What does it mean to be apart of it?
    Rome Life is something I started during my Sophomore year of high school (one of the worst times in my life) it started off as me documenting my journey to recovery from my shoulder surgery but eventually it turned into a platform that I could use to encourage myself as well as others to chase our dreams.
    Rome Life isn't just a saying it's a way of life and for the people who want to be apart of it have to realize that. Rome wasn't built in a day it took a lot of handwork time and most importantly patience. So you can't expect your dreams to be any different
    This is a reaction video used to educated and give my feedback on the song and artist

      Love that story. Used to go to the Back Room in Austin late 80s and watched The Dangerous Toys start as a cover band and eventually make their way to MTV. Not comparing them to SRV by any stretch but my experience was similar. Watching a band grow up from the beginnings and then making it big was fun! Left Austin in the 90s and was sad to hear that bastion of heavy metal is no more. Lots of good times in that place.

At that time they were just kids (teens) running around town w/ their guitars just trying to sneak in somewhere to see SRV play & eventually get to play a song w/ him. Of course Jonny & Kenny Wayne later headlined themselves.

      @scifisister159 I'm guessing you already knew this, but not many Jimi fans do. Many get his "VooDoo Chile" and "VooDoo Child (Slight Return)" titles confused (they are two different songs when you listen to them). "(Slight Return)" was influenced from the original "Voodoo Chile". The "(Slight Return)" version is the one SRV honored in this vid.
      Wiki expains it simplest: "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" was developed from "Voodoo Chile"(Except for the chorus, both have very different lyrics), which had been recorded May 2, 1968, during a studio jam with Steve Winwood and Jack Casady. The next day, Hendrix returned to the studio with Redding and Mitchell for the filming of a short ABC TV documentary. Noel Redding explained, "We learned that song in the studio during that filming." Both songs appeared on Hendrix's Electric Ladyland album.

      He took Eric Clapton's seat, he wanted to get back to see his gf and it was foggy out. Sad day this man died.

    SRV was introduced to the world, by David Bowie, in a song called Let's Dance.
    Trust me, you will know Stevie, as soon as you hear him!

      As you may know, in the music video of "Let's Dance" by Bowie, it shows David Bowie playing the guitar but it's actually Stevie playing. I love David Bowie but I always thought that was pretty shitty; He didn't give Stevie credit for playing the guitar solo.

    Love your reaction, so happy you’ve found SRV. There was no one like him. Never will be

    Stevie was one of the greats, along with I would say Jimi Hendrix, jimmy page, prince, eric Clapton, randy Rhodes, and B.B. King.
