Re: Bilboard blues Chart

Great news, Joe!

I feel lucky and pleased that I got to "discover" you early and get to feel that undertow pull when a big wave starts to swell and head to shore, and possibly be there at that moment when your name suddenly becomes "a household name overnight".

I sure hope this success will allow you to add more dates in the SF Bay Area in the near future!

Re: Bilboard blues Chart

Joe That's Great News For Holding The Top Spot For 5 Weeks and All Because Sloe Gin is Just a Truly Great Piece of Flowing Music , Song After Song It is an Impressive CD to Any One ,  But Poses a Challenge to Improve on That ....... Dude You've Got Your Work Cut Out

Got a Little Story , I Bought 10 Copies and Gave out 8 , A Few to close friends and Work Colleagues ( Who's this Bonamassa , is always the question? ) So there was this guy at work , He was a non believer , I Gave him Sloe Gin and he took it home , The next day i caught up with him  , didn't want to push for an Opinion , So i asked how his Pregnant Wife of 8 Months was Doing , He said Smiling , She's doing fine and Joe's got a new fan , She absolutely Loving the Album and Joe's Voice , and he agreed with that , well he had too...... But the funny conversation that followed ( you know construction builders talk) we were in hysterics , my friend said he was gonna play Sloe Gin to His wifes belly
well could this be Joe's youngest fan ) and favourite songs are Around the Bend & One of these Days L O L
And then we started saying that when his baby is born that all the newborns on the maternity ward will be listening to Sloe Gin in their incubators with I-Pods , A new breed of fans , A real Bonabaptism i guess

Re: Bilboard blues Chart

Congratulazioni!!

5 weeks at the top is quite an accomplishment, yet you're humble and gracious as usual.

Of course, that's why you have the rabidly loyal following you have. 

Can't wait til' October when you're back in my neck of the woods and I get to go to 4 shows on 4 consecutive nights in 4 different states.
