Hi everyone,
I just joined as a member...longtime fan though.
Because I'm new here and don't know the current discussion buzz, you may have heard about his already.
A friend of mine just turned me on to a musician on YouTube who is so incredibly talented, it's frightening.
Check out this cat called the "Cellonator"...he plays electric cello and he rips through some of Joe's coolest songs-"Surfin" and "Always with me always with you"..

Then search a few of his others--VH's "Eruption" (It's SICK) and Hendrix's version of the Star Spangled Banner. WOW!
Anyway, Joe...I would love to see you put the Cellonator on the G3 bill, even if it's just as a guest 15 minute spotlight...He plays with incredible feel on top of his mind-blowing technique.
I love your melodies, Joe...they have always has been my favorite part of your playing. You are truly blessed.
Jack
