Hello Joe,

I am from India and a great fan of your music and guitar skills. I am 26 and have been playing guitar for now about 5 yr. As a guitarist I am not a very fast player , but could make decent cover of your songs like extremist,summer song ,crystal planet and others . I am professionally a Software Engineer, but have been inclined to music and career into it since I started playing.

I lack ear training, sight reading , but know considerable theory. Could you please suggest the organized way of proceeding further so that I can be a musician , can compose and play along with other musician. May be you wanna look at my playing skills [ink="http://www.youtube.com/user/varunnidhi"]

This is so cool! Love it!

Hi Joe. What about a concert i Scandinavia and Bergen Norway especially. Many fans and guitarplayers here, check out madseriksen.com.

Hey Joe,

I missed the Montrose tribute concert. When is the DVD coming out?

Save The Arts

Turns out they are trying to remove art from classrooms in California. Go to http://www.adoptthearts.org if you want to help get it back.

Well it's been close to two months since I went to the G3 concert and I posted on this forum, to which I received no response.

I asked them to turn it down and they wouldn't. I told them i would leave if they didn't and I should have kept to my word instead of allowing them to convince me to stay.

Now my hearing is wrecked. I can't play guitar anymore because I can't stand the constant ringing in my ears. It's destroying my career as I can barely hear people in meetings anymore.

My girlfriend cries almost everyday because she feels so bad for buying the tickets and has seen the affect it has had on my life. She regrets not leaving when I tried yelling to her that it was too loud.

When will someone start taking some serious action against the organisers of these concerts who insist on setting the volume level at unsafe levels. There is no excuse for this. This is a choice that a sound engineer made to set the volume at a an unsafe level. This information is well documented in tons of literature about what is a safe level for noise exposure.

This hearing damage was not from machinery in a factory that someone had to work with. This is a recreational event that we paid good money to attend.

So what now.. 2 months of ringing in my ears, and all the doctors can say is live with it.

People wake up. Don't think that wearing ear plugs is going to protect you it won't. Not at those noise levels. I wore ear plugs the whole time at the concert and I thought it would protect me and it didn't.
