i don't really know gambale but the "blues" section of this clip sounds fantastic!

a younger gambale, looking bored:

THIS GUY TROY STETINA IS MY MOM'S COUSIN. I HAVE NEVER MET HIM BUT I TALKED TO HIM ON THE PHONE. ONCE.

The second of Jody's youtubes is from the VERY DVD that AHz reviewed upthread. He was totally OTM by the look of it. The first one, the little blues lead section is indeed excellent. The info that Gambale is giving out in the pink tee-shirt clip does sound pretty solid.

I myself have been taking guitar lessons for the past few weeks. When you realise that you've been playing for 17yrs and you still can't play for shit, then it is time to get it on. I am learning "turn, turn, turn", which is quite difficult, but i am getting as little better already.

Am I right in thinking Italian-Americans are disproportionately represented in the field of ROCK DISCIPLINE?

They found a need and took it over.

At what point does fret-melting become face-melting?

haha unless I'm terribly mistaken, p3trucc1 is playing in branca's symphony 13 for 100 guitars today in st. louis. He was in rehearsals this week. Super nice guy. Nice 6-string bass. And his hair is a lot shorter now lulz.

6-string bass dude is John Patitucci, not John Petrucci. One dude made famous by Chick Corea, the other by Dream Theatre.

Rocco Prestia's video is another one in the "doesn't suck" category.

...

Never mind

w0lf m@rsh@ll looks like he's cleaned up a little:

I wonder if Robert Fripp would ever lower himself to making one of these. I can imagine how it'd go too. He'd be all stern and professorial.

Guitar Craft (GC) is a series of guitar and personal development classes, founded and often presented by Robert Fripp, who is best known for his work with King Crimson. The Introduction to Guitar Craft (2004) describes GC as three things:

* A way to develop a relationship with the guitar;
* A way to develop a relationship with music;
* A way to develop a relationship with oneself.

In the wider guitarist community, GC is best known for having introduced the New Standard Tuning, Fripp's term for the guitar tuning that came to him in 1983 (C, G, D, A , E, G low to high), and that he had personally switched over to by 1984. In GC itself the tuning is only one tool used towards a wider aim of re-directing the student's guitar playing from scratch.

New Guitar Craft students are not expected to have any guitar experience at all, and it has been suggested, by Fripp and students, that previous experience can sometimes work against the course objectives, because of the expectations it places on the course and on music in general.

Some course activities have little or nothing to do with the guitar, such as relaxation techniques, house and kitchen work, Tai Chi Chuan and the Alexander Technique.

Hey awesome!

I have to contribute to this thread...I will attempt to dupe the success of the Petrucci/Gambale/King reviews with my review of this:

http://www.midi-classics.com/i/p21522.jpg

And then will move on to some of the other stuff I have. This one is the one that will undoubtedly provide more fodder for mockery and derision, but I think I actually remember it being alright as to content.

Hahaha, nice. Can't wait.

I think my favorite thing from Aaron's Petrucci review:

He makes like Steve Vai at the end of Crossroads for a few minutes, then plays some shit slow for a while, finally showing us again how fast A REAL ASSHOLE LIKE HIM can play it!

Heh heh

We await these reviews.

Someone explain to me Dream Theater's enduring popularity in ... Italy!

italy has some nutty rock fans. no detached irony in the culture whatsoever.

i remember the mojo article on van der graaf generator and it was like crazy beatlemania with them in italy : )

what a weird place!

surprised this hasn't been mentioned:

You know, this was kinda on the wrong board to start with so let me move it here...

Was it not on ILM? I just did a search for John Petrucci and this seemed like a good thread to toss that video in.

ILE for whatever reason. Anyway it's in its spiritual home now.

Thanks Ned. :-)
