      It’s called playing with an ACTUAL melody and feel…not how many shitty notes you can play per second…that dumb shit is forgotten as soon as I hear it…but with REAL guitarists their licks/solos stay with you FOR LIFE

I’ve been to a couple of his concerts and during one of his amazing solos someone yelled out “You’re the greatest guitarist ever “ and Joe shook his head no and pointed at Josh Smith who plays rhythm guitar at some of Joe’s concerts. In my book they are both incredible musicians! Thank you Joe and Josh for giving me something to aim for! ( Never happen but it’s worth trying)

I saw how you looked and, it seriously made me want to fly to Nevada to shake your hand (forget about being in the best guitar shop in the world) as you looked as enibriated as my father did before…. I had thought it was a new video but it was from a year ago. I was quickly buying my ticket just to meet you. I am so happy to see how you look today. Im sure nobody around realizes as they are around you daily. Keep doing whatever you’re doing. Im only buying the ticket now if i make at least 20K more than I need…. If you’re ever in Montreal… reach out. Much respect and KEEP HEALTHY!

    To everyone bitching and moaning about Joe and Norm constantly talking over one another during these *Guitar of the Day* videos, I say to you, *"Just dont watch their videos together if it bothers you so much!"*
    These two have been interacting this way for a long time, and if either one of them was truly bothered about how the other person was acting I'm positive that they would have said something to the other *A LONG TIME AGO!*
    *NEITHER* Joe Bonamassa nor Norman Harris are particularly shy about expressing their opinions, and they genuinely seem to treasure one another's company.
    *As far as Joe playing whatever guitar he happens to be holding in his hands over top of someone who's speaking to him just remember that he's NEVER been shy about admitting that he's.....*
    *#1,* a huge nerd.
    *#2,* suffers tremendously from serious ADHD.
    *#3,* is in all likelihood on the high-functioning end of the autism spectrum.
    *#4,* plays a guitar while being interviewed as a form of both expressing himself as a person, and as a coping mechanism.
    *For myself, I find Joe's talking and playing over top of someone else's speech just as annoying as I'm sure everyone who complains about it does. That being said, I learned a long time ago when first attending 12-step meetings, that not only am I not perfect, but that when it comes to anyone else's idiosyncrasies and faults, I had best be tolerant and forgiving because they deserve my tolerance and forgiveness just as much as I do/did for all those times that I managed to piss someone off while I have navigated my way through life.*
    *Whenever I watch a Joe Bonamassa interview, especially these Guitar of the Day videos for Norman's Rare Guitars, I remind myself that I don't possess one, one-millionth of Joe Bonamassa's abilities and talent, and that his idiosyncrasies are a SMALL PRICE to pay for GOD allowing me to witness what Joe so freely shares with the world.*

    "On June 9, 1975 People magazine published an article titled “The Jaggers” that included the following remark from Mick Jagger who was almost thirty-two years old.
    Jagger and the Stones have endured at the top longer than any other rock band, but as for the future, Jagger admits that it could all suddenly end. “I only meant to do it for two years. I guess the band would just disperse one day and say goodbye. I would continue to write and sing, but I’d rather be dead than sing Satisfaction when I’m 45.”"
