US soul singer Solomon Burke, who wrote the classic song Everybody Needs Somebody to Love, has died at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport aged 70.
Burke leaves behind 21 children, 90 grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren.
The cause of death has not yet been announced.
Solomon was to play the Paradiso (remember Joe and Jeff?) venue with a famous Dutch band called De Dijk who recorded and released a new album with Solomon. I expect this concert on Tuesday will be a memorial thing now. There have been quite a view memorial services at the Paradiso over the years. Mostly musicians of course. The Paradiso was a church in the past (built 1880) before it became a "cosmic entertainment center" in 1968. Light up :-)
Like I told Jeff before the show in 2008: everybody played there: The Ramones, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Guns N' Roses, Nirvana, David Bowie, The Police, Red Hot Chili Peppers, U2, Pearl Jam, Metallica, Pink Floyd, Hole, Live, James Brown, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Robbie Williams, Eels, Rolling Stones, Ween, Prince, Emmylou Harris, Steve Lukather, etc etc etc. But don't be nervous :-)
(I worked there as a lighting designer 1999-2002. And to avoid people feeling sick: Joe played the main hall [1500p], Coldplay played the small room upstairs as kids with their first album [250p])
"Loving people," he said at a recent performance in London, "is what I do."
R.I.P. big Solomon Burke

hey joe
u seriously should create some 'naked tracks' just like Vai did, ur music is something tricky yet unbelievably simple i dont even know how to explain, lols
but man this album 'Black Swans and Wormhole Wizards' is amazing especially 'Wind in the Trees' LOVE THAT SONG!!
im guessing the 'Wizard' pard came from ur usage of the Wizard amp, lolz

It is so mad here at the moment, half the beach has been swallowed by the ocean, there's sand being blown everywhere and it's been raining horizontally for 2 days straight!
Very wild weather.
I also just got my server back up and running. I thought I'd celebrate by posting my new chickenfoot guitar.
I still can't believe I am so far behind in uploading album info. Anyway, I'll get to it one day.

Wow only 2 were made, you have one and Joe has the other. That is unbelievable!
I hope I have the chance to buy either a chromeboy or a crystal planet JS. That would be amazing!

Finally had a chance to sit down and tinker around with working out bits of the new album on my guitar. Got my JS tuned down to E flat and started with Wormhole Wizards, Wind in the Trees, and God Is Crying. Just working on main riffs and a bit of the melodies.... having fun just figuring out where Joe's at, how some of the songs are put together, and perhaps what might have been going on in his head when he wrote them. Has he said what gauge strings he's using on this one? I thought I remember hearing that he went to 10s for Chickenfoot. I'm using D'Addario XL 9s.

No idea if Wind in the trees is playable live, I thought it was the zvex ringtone, could be tricky to replicate live.... I've no idea, im sure its plausable, even without the effect, but it is pretty cool
did the dont change in the txt box? also noticed the page takes longer to load than usual too

Well I hope it's a bigger turn-out in SF than it was in LA (Cd signing) I thought for sure there would be a line going around the building at least. But it looked like it stopped short of that. And I felt sad for Joe, Esp, because He was so excited and happy to be there.
And I noticed afterwards, like the very next day I think it was, (or the day after that) there was a posting with the days and times of his cd signings got put up here on the front page of the site. I dont believe there was any postings before. Im pretty sure there wasn't. So perhaps, that is why there wasnt More fans for the LA signing.
Me sure does wonder...................
In any case, May it be a fun time, regardless. I will never forget how excited AND nervous he seemed just as it was getting under way! so cute!
