Topic: Soundcheck NOLA

We are traveling to the show in New Orleans this weekend.  Does Joe have any process in place for people to request (beg, donate to a charity, etc.) access to a soundcheck?  I think it would be great to hear his rig without anything else. 

We are doing the meet and greet and appreciate that he does that, but as a collector and wanna be musician, hearing those instruments through those amps would be fascinating. 

Thanks,

Michael

I don’t think there is a process.  However, the right time and place mentioning that twin You bought.......

Re: Soundcheck NOLA

Didn't make soundcheck but will try to catch him again in Indy or St Louis.  Enjoyed a few minutes of nerd talk with him at Meet N Great.  He is genuinely a nice guy.  He not only signed my Doubleland Special but also adjusted the settings to his own preference.  He's the kind of guy you could sit and have meaningful music conversation with for hours, because he's authentic, knowledgable and into it.  I asked when he changes tubes on the twins and he said when there's flames or smoke.  Good enough for me.
