Jfrocks and Guitar Dude Jeff Fiorentino anyone know the history?
Daviddavidvid
This is from the wiki about page for Jfrocks.com but I added to it being a fan of Jeff's since 2004 when I first found the site from a link posted in the eddievanhalen.com forum website. I don't think Jeff likes personal info floating around but I found this question and had an answer so take it for what it's worth.
The JFRocks.com guitar instructional website was founded in early July of 2001 by Los Angeles based studio & sessions guitarist Jeff Fiorentino. The website was put together oddly enough while Jeff was doing a play with a few friends. We don't think of Jeff as an actor and he's not. He was doing the music for the play and what started out as s simple idea put forth by Jeff to the cast of the play has now turned into one of the most legendary and famous guitar lesson websites on the internet.
Jeff Fiorentino is an American born Studio/Sessions guitarist. Born July 10, 1974 in Springfield Massachusetts (although some reports around the internet have Jeff being born in 1968 & 1970, my guess is 1974 is more accurate). Jeff Fiorentino has been both an industry and freelance studio and sessions guitarist in Los Angeles and New York since the early 90's. In fact guitar is pretty much all Jeff has ever done for a living, although he did teach Martial Arts at a school in Burbank California for a brief period in the mid 1990's. Jeff currently resides, and the jfrocks.com website is based out of Santa Monica CA Los Angeles.
Guitarist Jeff Fiorentino is best known among industry people and radio people in particular for his commercial work, having written literally hundreds of riffs and hooks for Radio and TV commercial spots and promos for both national and local markets. Jeff has also done background wrap up music for networks like ESPN and ABC.
For more info on Jeff Fiorentino or to check out some of his music and guitar lessons some helpful links have been provided along with this post.

Is DragonForce real or fake?
The guitar is sped up in the recording studio. The singing is recorded separately. When Dragonforce play live, the guitarists struggle to keep up when they are forced to play much faster then they did when they recorded their songs. It is NOT FAKE! Just because GH3 (guitar hero 3) have been starting false rumors about Dragonforce. If anyone has a care in the world to actually see any of there performances in Japan or UK they sound much alike on the album. In the Ultra beat down Bonus DVD they show you the making of the album and its not sped up.

Dana Barron question does Dana Barron really have a feud going with Jeff Fiorentino of jfrocks.com?
I'm a fan of Jeff's work and jfrocks website and obviously I also know of Dana Barron from Vacation and the answer is no! In fact in many guitar forums online this topic is laughed at because many guitar fans are being made into the bad guys. Some of the news stories online and even some questions here on ask wiki and the whole feud in general are the result of a blogger who has run a muck with the search engines and social networking sites like Facebook and is trying to make a name for his or her self by stealing traffic. There is no real feud going on between the two that anyone knows about. You would be wise to not believe everything you read online unless you can trust the sources.Boyd Piers

Why does Guitarist Jeff Fiorentino thank Michael J Fox?
I assume this question is in reference to Jeff Fiorentino's Guitar Lesson website JFRocks.com's Credits and Thanks page where Michael J. Fox is thanked and also a link is given to donate to his organization.The story I get on that from a friend of Jeff's on Facebook is that Michael J. Fox's Marty McFly character in Back to the Future was instrumental in Jeff continuing to pursue guitar playing. Jeff Fiorentino has since gone on to do countless guitar sessions for TV and Radio mostly in the commercial industry throughout the 1990's.Jeff credits the Back to the Future movie in general which came out when he was about the age of the character in the film with him continuing guitar studies and passing on cooking school to take a chance on playing guitar. I think him and the crew at JFRocks.com thanking Michael in general was more a kind jesture than anything else as I don't believe Jeff himself knows Michael J. Fox. I don't even know if Michael J. Fox plays guitar or even played it or has any idea who Jeff Fiorentino or JFRocks.com is, but it's a very nice thanks to him on the site. JFRocks.com has a very large following online and I'm told that many have donated to Michaels organization thanks to Jeff Fiorentino's mention of it. So kudos to Jeff and JFRocks.com for that since the Michael J. Fox foundation is worthy cause to say the very least.I'll add some related links to this post for anyone unclear, and by all means Jeff Fiorentino is very approachable and easy to find on Facebook, Twitter, and his own forum on his site so feel free to ask him directly as he more than likely would give a better explanation for the credit to Michael J. Fox on their credits page than I've given with my second hand answer.

Is Jane Levy really suing jfrocks and Jeff Fiorentino for Fake Janes and STB royalties?
Someone posted this question on Guitarist Jeff Fiorentino's Facebook page like a week ago. There have been no less than 50 or 60 responses from people waiting for an answer. The likely reason you're asking this question is it has as of yet gone unanswered by Jeff or anyone from jfrocks.com or even any of the actors from Story City that frequent the page.The likely reason it is unanswered is because it's either a dumb question and Jeff is annoyed, or it's true and Jeff is really annoyed. Either way my guess is Jeff is annoyed by this.I get why you asked this question and hey I'm a Jeff Fiorentino super fan and even I don't know the answer. The fact is though, not only has Zoe Jacques from jfrocks.com written a very popular funny and nice article about Jane Levy in the jfrocks blog which clearly states they have a lot of respect for her. The two songs in question were not written by or contributed to by Jane Levy in any way, thus no royalty is likely to happen for her as music royalties typically come from a combination of publishing and author rights.You might just want to wait for Jeff Fiorentino's answer but my guess is heck will freeze over first.Or even better consider the fact that Jane Levy has been as of late the product of many rumors from her secret marriage to a girl to her recent passing. While it is true that the 2 songs in question by Jeff Fiorentino were both licensed so there are royalties to sue for, "Suffer the Bitches" to a video game company in Australia and "Fake Jane Levys" got picked up only days after its internet release, helped by Jeff Fiorentino's heavily read blog article about the song title's origin is now the theme song to a new radio show on Sat radio. Like I said earlier there is no chance for a suit from Jane Levy for royalties as there is no claim either publishing or writing that she can possibly make.My best guess is at worst Jane Levy doesn't know the back-story behind the 2 songs and is annoyed with the gang at jfrocks.com. I think that's unlikely but stranger things have happened.
