Happy Birthday to the legendary Dave Amato—whose guitar solos are sharper than Ted Nugent’s hunting knives and whose energy rocks harder on stage than Jimmy Barnes down under! Another year of shredding strings with REO Speedwagon, giving us countless memories. Your riffs remain timelessly awesome—perhaps your true "secret ingredient" is found in that epic hair style.Whether you’re commanding sold-out arenas or energizing music legends, we salute you today and always. Wishing the happiest day to a guitarist who makes every lick look effortlessly cool; keep on rollin’ along like it's 157 Riverside Avenue! Cheers, Dave—you've still got it rocking strong!
