Joe Ward

Story

I'm the guitarist for the band Boner Goals. You can imagine what our music is like based on the name. I started playing guitar when I was eight and took to the stylings of Angus Young. While he inspired my initial interest in guitar I must admit I obsessed with AC/DC for too long. I didn't give other music a chance and it stunted my growth as a guitar player. Eventually I realized there was more to music than AC/DC and started to spread my interests. I've been in many bands that have gone no where, because of no one wanting to take things seriously. Now I'm in two bands one being a cover band playing a lot of older songs, and the other being Boner Goals. The thing that's great about Boner Goals is that we can write about anything, I mean have you seen our name?
