That Was Then, This Is Now

love the 80s hair metal guitar solo tone here

Building up into these strummed octaves as the climax of the song is an excellent choice

The song itself is fantastic, builds up and maintains musical interest very well.

The live version of Andy playing this at a guitar clinic is incredible: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PV14OgmngJw&ab_channel=PunchyDollgyStudio

He plays the solo in such an animated but dignified manner, almost like a political orator giving a speech. His face maintains a fairly neutral expression throughout (compared to the really cheesy "guitar face" you get sometimes) but his body language really follows the flow of the music.
