Location: Anchorage, Alaska | I just got tickets to see Al DiMeola next week here in Anchorage, Alaska! We don't get this level of guitarist up here too often. I've never see him but am looking to see and hear how my guitar (an Al signature Ovation) is supposed to sound! He will be perforning with Manuel Barrueco. |

Location: Anchorage, Alaska | Nope. That Ovation will be with me for a looooong time. I don't ever expect to play it like him, but it gives me great pleasure whenever I pick it up to play anything. What an instrument (or piece of art)! |

You enjoy the concert. |

| I'm not normally a jealous person, but in your case I'll make an exception.
on stage at the same time - the greatest guitar player the world's ever seen and 2 more from the all time top 20.
I think I would have died. (Happy). |

When I was young I was an idiot. The stories I could tell. |
