Location: Houston, TX | No, no, no...the date has been firm for a couple of months. It is the weekend of June 4-6. All three days there will be access to Guitar Center Village - trade show kinda thing and workshops. Malmsteen, George Lynch, Nuno Bettencort, and Tony Franklin are confirmed for the workshops on Saturday. The concert is Sunday from noon to ??? (probably 11pm if they have sound ordinances).
Also, Brian May pulled out, but James Taylor, Jeff Beck, and John McLaughlin have been added.
I've had my tickets for three weeks. Let me know if anyone wants to meet. It would be nice to put faces with some of these names. |

I don't know if any of you caught the BB King workshop on the Ovation network (Yes in NYC there's the OVATION channel #83 or 82) anyway, he said two interesting things (amongst many, but my mind has a very small harddrive) which I'll paraphrase:
1)If it weren't for the invention of the Fender electric bass there would be no rock 'n roll as we know it, and,
2) When he plays, he is actually singing with his hands, that's why he will play or sing but never at the same time, but when he's playing not only is he singing, he's trying to emulate a slide guitar, that's why he's always doing those trills. |
