Hey Guys,

Just curious but how many people took a family member or friend who never heard of joe to one of Joe's shows? What did they think?

Just wondering since I brought my cousins to the west palm beach show and they were blown away. Also my grandparents went to their first Joe show and loved it.

Hi Brett
i brought my friend and two cousins to the Boston show and my friend also went with me to the meet and greet when I gave  Joe the Chet Atkins Classical. They all were completely floored. They are all now Bonamassa fans.

Re: Hey Guys, It's Brett

Hi Brett,

I brought my cousin Elisa and her husband to the Philly show, they traveled 8 hours and were able to get in on the Meet & Greet and get some more of Joe's guitar strings for SFAC. It was a fantastic weekend all planned around Joe!

After the show Elisa said, NOW I understand what all the fuss is about!!!   smile  smile  smile  smile

I have taken eight friends and family members to Joe’s performances and they were amazed by his talent and can’t believe that they have never heard of him before. Not everyone had a chance to meet Joe but all of them want to know when he is coming back to Vegas to see him again.

Take care,

Re: Hey Guys, It's Brett

How about wife, two sons, sons girlfriend and brother in law. All now fans but wife still needs more convincing. She's still more into pop (why!!!!!!!) and country. All the rest now avid fans. All going to Sheffield next year. Wife is only going as I am now taking her to Phantom of the Opera (again) and strangely Lynyrd Skynyrd next JUne at Manchester. lol  lol  lol

Re: Hey Guys, It's Brett

I have lost count of how many people I have taken over the years.  They have all come away as fans.  I used to buy and give away tickets but sadly I can't afford that anymore.  My substitution?  Lend someone the RAH DVD (and soon the new one) - works everytime.

Yeah I have taken a few and convinced a bunch to go. Not sure of numbers but the 10-2003 show at the Recher was the most. I literally called everyone I knew that I thought would like it.
Of course they may have heard of Joe from me but never really heard him or the live show. Never had many complaints....most loved it. the more recent shows being a different kind of love but love of the show nonetheless.



Thats awesome!! yea it seems that most walk away as fans.

jam on,

Re: Hey Guys, It's Brett

Hey Brett,
Can you or anyone else at the home office give us any idea as to when tickets will be available(Reno for me) and where do we purchase them? Also, will there be a presale as well. I've searched all the usual suspects and made a few calls but have turned up empty so far except that tickets for Fresno on 4/19 go on sale on the 12th thru Ticketmaster.
Thanks for any and all help.

Why don't we eliminate all the warning labels and let things sort themselves out?

Re: Hey Guys, It's Brett

How are the emails being sent out?  Are they still geographical?  For example I live in Massachusetts but I often buy tickets for all of the New England states - will I get an email for all New England shows or just what you folks consider close enough for me to get to?

Re: Hey Guys, It's Brett

Brett,

Anything on presale codes and time of day that they go on sale.  Im from Colorado and looking for tix in Denver.  Will be my third Joe show.  Got the presale code for the Beacon Theater show from the forum when we bought them on the day of presale. I realize that its for the devout fans of Joe and would be honored to be on the email list for the presale codes.  I assure you that I meet the criteria for qualifying as a devout fan.  I have met Joe, had him sign my guitar.  I also purchased a Gibson Bonamassa Studio and have all his vinyl releases, some signed.  Any way to get me on the list? apexcontractors1@gmail.com 

Hoping yu can help.

Thanks,

Mike
