Topic: New To Forum

Hey everyone,
I'm Don and I've know about Joe for almost a year now. I have many of his CD's and 1 DVD Live From Royal Albert Hall. I'm about ready to purchase his lastest DVD too.

I live in Gulf NC, little spot in the road, been there 29 years now. My wife and I enjoy listening to JJ Grey and Mofro, Jonny Lang, Buddy Guy, but my all time favorite is Joe Bonamassa. Tickets went on sale today for pre-order for the November show in Durham NC. We are hoping to attend, need code help. I have actually been looking for NC shows and a friend just off the cuff this morning said Bonamassa was coming. I didn't believe him until he shot me the link to DPAC. Looking forward to much more.

My wife and I learned about Joe by way of Pandora. We don't watch TV so we keep music rolling 24/7. One evening I was sipping a glass of red and heard this tune come on. We looked at each other at the same time asking who in the world is that? I got up to look at the Pandora screen and was Sloe Gin by Joe, been hooked ever since. My favorite so far is between Stop or High Water both from the Royal Albert Hall DVD. I've even bought the DVD for good friends and each one has fell in love, good stuff.

Welcome Don, and thanks for this excellent introduction. No tv, huh? Must be kind of weird to not watch tv in the US....never mind, I'm sure you'll fit in just fine around here where there are also numerous members from your part of the world. Enjoy the forum and keep posting. wink

RIP Iron Man

Rock On and keep the Faith
