OK, I'll try and come up with something suitable.
In the mean time if anybody else has something to offer, feel free to post.

Re: Bona-Trivia

Who said of Joe...

"I only play rhythm and sing.....Joe is the soloist and he's sensational".

And as a follow up... Which 'named' guitar was Joe playing at the time?

Spot on Jane.
Joe was guesting on Bernie Marsden's "Shine" album and he was indeed using the Gibson 59 Beast (on loan from Bernie).

So I guess he answered the trivia question by himself ( or by whoever manages this site for him) - Eric Gales.

Gave a listen to this Eric - really nice. Liked him a lot.  But still think Joe is the best and the Only.   

( Its like my friend dragging me to Tommy Emmanuel concert in his attempt to prove that somebody is better. Hmmm... I felt like at the circus performance. Jaw-dropping  - yes. Fascinating - yes. Soul, mind and body touching - no. )

Re: Bona-Trivia

I'm gonna say Josh Smith since Joe said once that Josh was the only man he feared with a guitar....

Exactly, pat6put6man! No wonder: Josh began playing in the age of 4. I had the luck to enjoy two times in Muddy`s Blues Club  in Weinheim, but Joe is and remains my number 1 by far. He`s the one and only  upcoming guitar god lol ...

Here's some odd ones.

At the start of the 2004 tour. Joe had upgraded to a proper bus. What famous band had the bus driver been escorting for years prior?

Couple more to ponder.

What was the hammer price at the Clapton benefit auction fot Joe's Goldie?

Which Wisconsin city is Joe's grandma from? (Digging in to obsure fandom).

Re: Bona-Trivia

I never have good trivia questions to offer, but I will get the responses started with the obvious answer that gets me every time when I am driving.  That is Sloe Gin.  I will have to think more about what the other one is.
