This is pretty cool, to be discussing limited addition guitars.  Do you get to have a lot of input, or is it just the use of JB, or how does this work.................and damn, I don't play, but now I want one!

who's jam session where you thinking of crashing.........that actually sounds like a lot of fun!
Did you guys get to stay in Nashville or head down the road to Georgia? 

I am so totally hooked on these blogs!  It is amazing to me what you do in 1 day. 

now I get to go feed the cats, rake leaves and clean the gutters...............hmmmmm

Enjoy your days off!

Re: Daily Blog Nashville

Joe what a nice way to be in contact with all of us. A daily cup of J.B life in a blog, it brings a light on this cold wintersday.
Tell us more about the limited J.B Less Paul guitar.....?!
Do you play the same songs on a soundcheck or does it depend on the acoustics/ venue etc?
Jam sessions... ha ha.... you are one of the guys who can't stop playing...Addict...ha ha!!!
Looking forward after a hard days work[ 50 hours a week for me till the end off the year] to see what you've been up too.
Enjoy the rest of the Tour and your well deserved days off!

Wow - again, Joe, I've gotta tell you what a treat last night's show was.

Outstanding!

After listening to your music via Pat G over the past three albums, the live show was beyond anything we could've expected. The band was fantastic.

And thanks again so much for taking the time to meet Marshall - I think your guitar pick gift will never leave that 14yr-old boy's hands. Later, getting home, he was ready to play, but I made him hit-the-hay.

Shout anytime you want to be "unbored" in Nashville - there is so much to do and see off of the beaten paths -  we've got a never ending stream of guests it seems. If you want to take in the outdoors and strech your legs, hit Radnor Lake for some beautiful hiking and natural beauty.

Enjoy Nashville - we sure enjoyed ya'll!

I can't believe everything Joe is able to accomplish in one day.  I'm starting to feel like a slacker. wink

Re: Daily Blog Nashville

Joe  -  Thank you for sharing 'a day in the life'.  Not long till the tour is over and you get some well deserved R&R.  We had a blast seeing you this year in London, Poole and Amsterdam and can't wait till next Feb/March.  Thanks for giving us so much pleasure.

Re: Daily Blog Nashville

Great show in Nashville Joe.....I can't believe I'm saying this but I think the house mix could've actually been LOUDER! 

maybe it's just because I had two cackling hens behind me.  smile

It's fun to watch and hear Carmine play....the man carries himself with such grace onstage.

Wish I could've gone to Gruhn Guitars with yout but my credit card limit is only 25K!
