    Sad one’s more to see , as in a bunch of other interviews with Kerry talking about his guitar brands he played They (he) always forget (for what ever reason) to mention about his ESP guitars he played ,too (one of the best guitar company’s ever since the late 70tis) He played ESP guitars during the Seasons Of The Abyss era back in the late 80tis

I don't know how or why I remember this.. but I remember that the performance was great...but that the vocals were absolutely awful. heheh. This girl is a killer player.

    Upcoming artists should carefully listen to anything and everything Joe has to say concerning how to make a living as a professional musician. The most astonishing thing that I have heard him say over the years was how independent sales differ from major label sales (all depending on your deal, of course). But I was shocked when he said that in order to make the same amount of money that he would have made selling 3 million albums on one of his old major label deals, he would only have to sell 30,000 copies independently. That is crazy. He didn't break it all down..so I don't know if that including paying back advances and fancy dinners...etc... But removing two Zeros from the figure is shocking, either way.
