thanks for all that...and I see I missed a live instagram yesterday...damn...any info?


   Joe's team will post the video later on youtube, but it is still available on chicagomusicexchange instagram page today. Very interesting and informative Nerdville videos as always, wonderfull tour of his living aka Green Shag room and Orange Couch room smile And absolutely mesmerizing few minutes of Joe playing.

  I did catch the actual live stream and it is a little different from the video that actually will be posted. They deleted about quarter of all comments, was very interesting to observe which ones smile, the same thing happened with his previous stream smile.    Joe answered very few comments directly, and a lot of them indirectly ( which is his usual manner of communicating with his most devoted fans )
  Joe mentioned in the video that it is on time delay, and that he is very careful and self aware of what he is saying lol, so no off limits topics were discussed smile

  PS: too bad I don't play GOLF, otherwise I would definitely buy Joe's GOLF tea shirts which he desined by himself ( Joe plays GOLF, who knew! ) https://shop.jbonamassa.com/collections … ri-fit-hat  : Edit: oh nelly! Nerdville Golf Balls! https://shop.jbonamassa.com/products/ne … -set-of-12

Re: Welcome to Nerdville 2: Instagram Edition

Back to Nerdville West LA - Joe is asking his fans opinions on which amp sounds better, says he will take all  comments to heart

  " After viewing this quality nerd footage please let me know which amp you prefer. All of them are stock with the original speakers. Please hurry and let me know your opinion because I told Rick Gould he cannot stop filming and holding the iPhone until we have a consensus. Is that legal? smile https://www.instagram.com/p/CDsZTsCJCyA/
