Joel is one of the very few guitar players who can walk onstage with whatever band without rehearsing with them. He works his ass off learning the material, no rehearsing even at sound check with them. He’s that disciplined and that good.
A true musician. 😊
great comment. Man alot are being jerks in the comment section
Sure he ‘can’ do it but it isn’t an ideal situation to hit the stage without a few rehearsals. You develop a chemistry, feel and rapport with the band. BTW- Bands aren’t individual players but a ‘chemistry’ developed from time spent playing together.
@@jimbaxter8488 you don’t get it. He nails it every time and he’s famous and respected for doing so. Drop your trolling and understand this one thing: If a band cancels a show or two today, they loose all the revenue of the tour and might possibly loosing money despite selling out the venues. If one of your guitar players get sick or have to stay at home with short notice, you call in Joel Hoekstra to save the day. He’s the ultimate team player saving you from massive problems and huge losses. Understand?

Joel is one of the nicest cats in the game. Such a cool dude 🤘
I have seen Joel perform many times. Excellent guitarist and really puts in the work on stage. His guitar collection is amazing.
HOLY SHIT that is awesome for both camps 🤘🏻🤘🏻
There must be thousands of songs rattling around in Joel’s head. He is a machine!!
Great choice! I'm a big fan of Accept! And Joel! Good luck, everyone! Rock on! Peace!
Damn, Wolf lives in Nashville?
Who knew?
I thought this was a Coverdale interview!
Joel has always delivered. He is every bit as talented as the guys he is replacing or emulating. His own style is impressive, dig in deep riffs and tasteful soloing. Guys like Joel are keeping the legendary songs in continuation and true to original form. Respect.
Joel is pure musical excellence! 👏🎶💯
I met Joel when he played for Cathy Richardson! He is a fantastic guitar player and a nicer human being than you will ever meet!
Yep she seems ok
Sick line up ahead!! 🤘🤘🤘
So looking forward to these shows 🔥🎸
Can't wait to see some video when you're in the band 😊 rock on!
Joel is the ultimate hired gun. His skills are top tier and he can adapt quickly.
Fantastic player
Man, what I would give to see Joel playing with Accept. Talk about a kick ass show! I've always loved Accept and their MTV video of Balls To the Wall is epic. I can just imagine Joel's intro to it. Talk about a ball crusher! On Whitesnakes farewell tour and I've never asked this of an artist before and that is they were going to come to Tulsa so I shot him an email asking if there was any possible way I could meet up with him and complete one of the things on my bucket list. To my surprise he said sure! And then we all know David had to pull the plug on the tour. I was so bummed out I was depressed for a few days but deep down I feel David will come back and be better than ever and hopefully get to meet Joel. Every time I've sent Joel an email he always responds to me which I totally respect and admire because there are not very many artists who will do that for whatever reasons.I've had my guitar heroes in the past but nobody ever filled the void until I discovered Joel. His playing and with his energy for me is simply perfection and masterfully executed and I can't thank him enough for bringing me so much joy and happiness in my life more than he'll ever know. Joel is such a humble and nice gentleman I don't know how anyone could not get along with or even get upset with him. He is truly a remarkable human being and wouldn't this crazy world be so much better if there were more people like him. On a side note I've never heard anyone say one little thing bad about him. That speaks volumes about this amazing gentleman. I sure as hell hope Accept does a live concert video with Joel's playing because I'll be the first person to get a copy.
Wow this is awesome! Great guitarist! ❤️🤘❤️
Love Joel what a badass
Joel is super talented awesome guitarist.
Joel's a monster!
Joel is simply just the most humble,respectful guy in a business that can be pretty brutal. I haven't met Joel personally, but prayers to God that someday soon I will
Great player. 👍
"let's have coffee!" said no metalhead in the 80's
I would love to see Whites take at least put out an all new studio album or even a live album from a recent tour.🙏🏻🎧
I'd like to see them revisit the early days, do a tour of just stuff pre-1987. But Dave seems to be happy with everything before Slide It In left in the dustbin.
JH is an EXTREMELY talented guitar player and love the fact he will be playing with Accept! I saw Accept open for Maiden in 85 on their Powerslave tour and have been a fan ever since.
Damn, that assymetrical goatee has triggerred my OCD...
Same!! Awesome comment😂😂
@@clarkgarber5495 👍🏼 thanks!
Ditto...lol
😂
It's a Hoffmann solo band now. Made the same album five different times since 2010.
🤘🤘
he was great back in the 80s and knew how to rock an arena but yeah have to agree with you from his partying ways over the years his vocals are shot
I thought Whitesnake just did their final tour and David was done no?
I have always liked Joel as a guitarist. You can tell this guys very passionate about what he does and it shows. I don’t know him personally but he seems like the kind of guy you want in your band for his maturity, not egotistical. Just a regular guy you could sit down and chat with. I respect his professionalism and when you can be a “friend” to David Coverdale and get his support to play in other bands, you know you have got a great guy to keep in your band.
God, I hope Coverdale is done. Coverdale is still alive, but his voice died over 15 years ago.
Why did he leave Night Ranger? Can anybody tell me?
He was great in that band.
Keri Kelly is O.K but sort of an eyesore onstage with his style of dress and mannerisms.
Buen guitarrista,pero se me hace raro en accept(tocara algun solo?😅)
I picture Coverdale having some punch cards that have the same platitudes that he says to every guitarist who he’s about to fire….😂
I suspect Doug Aldrich felt he had a “friendship “ with Coverdale as well.
Why would Coverdale be pissed. He's never going to tour again. It sucks because WS was a favorite, but I saw them when they last came through So Cal and his voice is shot. The band kicked ass but Dave....
There is no more Accept. Since a long time.
So very true, but... Is there whitesnake, g'n r, Ratt, dokken, stratovarius, megadeth, ac/dc..... Anymore? Or r those 'legend bands' just something which gives little bit of money for the retiered time.....
Right, it's the Wolf Hoffmann show.
U.D.O. ...nuff said
Man Joel is a great guitarist. From meat and potatoes to technical guitar wizard. A complete guitarist.
I'd be surprised if whitesnake tour again, i remember seeng them15 years ago and Coverdale's voice was shot then. The last tour was painful to watch.
Saw Whitesnake in London in May 2022 on the farewell tour, it was great, wouldn’t have missed it.
His voice was shit at Donnington 35 years ago
@@kevinstreet220 he was pushing it too high in those days.
@@artsmithdrums some vocalists could sing live exactly like in the studio.. Ray Gillen, rj Dio, rob halford to name 3. Coverdale always struggled live, listen to Deep Purple California jam in 74, he was struggling then and Glen Hughes nailed it and still nails it today. Sorry but I don't like singers who can't reproduce live what they do in the studio. Mind you, I wouldn't mind his money😄
He needs Glenn Hughes
I wonder how he's gonna feel when he realises he won't be playing any lead guitar in Accept and that's a fact!!
I have read Joel like what Accept doing. What do you really mean?
He may like Accept but it's a fact that Wolf doesn't let any of his guitar players play solos, that's why Jorg Fischer and Herman Frank Jr left the band. I love Wolf but this is a fact. I have been a huge Accept fan for decades and i know what i'm saying. For a guy like Joel who is a great lead guitarist, i don't think this is the most ideal band for him.@@tankardvan7290
I wish I could see this tour. I'm a big fan of Joel and Accept and its weird because Wolf Hoffman is one of my favorite guitar players. His sound is part of the reason I got into Accept to begin with. But now? He's old and slow, and kind of lazy now and its just weird because I think Joel is a better guitarist (now)
Now if they could just add dirk
man Joel is one of the best guitarist there is. Man, people are being azzholes in the comment section. Show some respect.
Dang Dr Teeth is in Accept now? Kinda a sideways move from Whitesnake. Brah usually punches up.
Odd pairing.
Agreed.
Play with me, trying to form a band..
How is it that SO many metal heroes live in Nashville, yet Nashvilles metal scene is such a fucking joke? These guys need to use their pull to get some out on the Broadway crowd where the good bands can actually get seen!
Who cares what Dave Coverdale thinks.
A dudes gotta work
Accept on the boomer tour huh?
? Accept is metal, joel is nyiah
Not a big fan. Accept couldn't find anyone else besides him
I thought Coverdale was done, they dropped out of scorpion tour last year, no big deal not a whiesnake fan.
He is NOT a songwriter so theres no sitting down while royaltues pour in so
Right, he only gets royalties for playing on the album (depending on the agreement). Lyrics royalties are where it’s at.
Accept sucks without udo
I know Riiiggghhhtttt.
Udo is an absolute badass!
Terrible, no more bands but brands. Today's metal scene is just too incestious. Everybody is in three b(r)ands and five side projects at the same time. It's all become a sad joke. Hoekstra is a good player, but is lacking identity in his playing. Great players are instantly recogniceable, Hoekstra is not. He is all hair and posing. Just a hired gun, who will musically neither be missed nor remembered in the future.
ACCEPT is Udo, Jörg Fischer and Peter Baltes. Wolf Hoffmann is just a business man posing as a metal guitarist. His ex wife Gabi Hauke was the the band's manager. She stole the Accept name from Udo with a legal trick. Today's incarnation of the brand is basically nothing but the name.
up
little harsh about Joel. Just think how cool it would be if people said you will neither be missed or remembered. He is better than good. Just his technique of 8 finger tapping most top guitarists can't do. Jeff Watson is close but I think Joel is even better.
DC's done man, move on...
He doesn't need davids permission to do what he wants. That arrogant jerk
No one cares about Coverdale or this Joel dude nor do they care about Accept. This a great way of wasting your time!
cool how YOU speak for everyone.
cool how you speak for everyone
Glam, poser. Stay with Cher and out of rock please. Or join up with Roth.
I thought Whitesnake were done.
Definitely on hiatus for the time being
They need to be over. Coverdale doesn't have a voice anymore.
Absolutely. Either finish it either let the legacy live with another singer. What he's doing for the last few years is nuts border jelousy (I can't sing anymore but I won't let anybody else sing.) @@robertbishop5357
True.
After Slip of the tongue none of the craps after that was any worth for me maybe for others.
@@robertbishop5357 Yet, he is behaving like he is getting younger by the day - keeping all of them on stand by, while not letting another singer sing and let his legacy live.
Or as would Al Pacino in the Devil's advocate say: "Vanity, my favourite sin".
Joel is super talented awesome guitarist.
