    Great article on the Beano Burst!

    I was wondering what happened to my case. 'Beano' itself is lying next to me on the couch. Been trying to learn Smoke On The Water all morning.

    So I'm at the Joe B show ...

    Good show. Josh Smith was awesome, too. I love his playing. It was cool to see a few younger folks there. The average age seemed to be 50s but there quite a few younguns showed up.

    So I'm at the Joe B show ...

    Wow ... it is Josh Smith, playing what I guess is his Sig Ibanez. Just looked up a show from this tour and learned it is Josh. Now I'm super stoked to hear him cut loose. Well ... to watch him cut loose. I'm sure he's great. :(

    His guitarist looks like Josh Smith and IS playing a Tele thru a Super Reverb. Wish I could hear him, too. :cry:

    He looks excellent. Wish I could actually hear him. Instead, I'm in the nosebleeds at DPRC and all I get is a dull but very loud rumble. I'm sure he's great, though. :(

    Buying JB tickets-am I the only idiot who didn't know this?

    You and me both. My wife is into the concert thing though and she loves three guitar players ... Derek Trucks, Susan Tedeschi, and Joe Bonamassa. Now we will have seen them all. :LOL: She also loves that Mongolian metal act. They are kinda catchy. Where else can you hear Tuvian throat singing...

    Buying JB tickets-am I the only idiot who didn't know this?

    I've been kinda floored at ticket prices, in general, myself. But I try to remember that's about the only way these guys make money nowadays. I thought JB's tickets would actually be much higher. And I would have gladly paid it. Just not gonna pay 35% for 'service fees', cuz he ain't getting his...

    Buying JB tickets-am I the only idiot who didn't know this?

    Looking forward to the show, regardless. And glad I saved $150. Lol. March includes the wife's birthday, our anniversary, and marks her retirement after 20 years in the US Army, active and reserve. She's earned a special night out. We're seeing another of her fav bands two nights prior ... a...

    Buying JB tickets-am I the only idiot who didn't know this?

    How do the resellers 'create value' for the artists? Serious question. I can imagine a contract could be written so that the artist gets a piece of the "service fees". Izzat a normal thing nowadays? The landscape has changed so much since Napster. I feel for young bands coming up nowadays...

    Buying JB tickets-am I the only idiot who didn't know this?

    So I'm buying tickets to see JB in Durham NC and after putting all my info in and getting ready to click BUY I see that my total is roughly 35% higher than the purchase price and tax. I check the details and find this company charges a mega service charge. So I go shopping and find a company...

    Linda Lee and her 53 .......

    Three things ... 1. She has gotta be one of the coolest ladies on the planet. Just lovely. And obviously mega talented. Talk about 'multi tasking'! 2. The guy should be edited out. Wonder if he still "believes" those are "P90 humbuckers"? I mean ... wow. 3. Those old "P90 humbuckers" are mega...
