Re: 100 thoughts on Joe

37. Joe's music ALWAYS makes me do my homework...be it on guitar or music history. I gotta find out of its an original or who wrote it, and THEN how the heck to play it!

Re: 100 thoughts on Joe

38. After listening to Joe others have tried turning me on to guys like Anthoney Gomez, Philip Sayce, David Gogo, Vince Converse, etc.... and none compare. I just can't make the transition. I'm not huge on Los Lonley Boys though either...just a preference.

I gave Back Door Slam a chance and really liked it. Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, and Black Keys are good too.

40. I work at a map company and I found a map of Utica, NY.  It was old and probably out dated.

41. hearing "from LA" come out of Joe's mouth still sounds awkward. As long as he never gets the LA hairdo we'll be all good.

Re: 100 thoughts on Joe

45. I know Joe used to use Line 6 amps and turned them to Twin Reverb simulation for smaller gigs in the past. I think that gives Line 6 some real credibility. haven't bought em yet...but perhaps someday when I get sick of tubes?

52. Joe's Chandler Lectra Slide is an amazing guitar too.  I wonder how high the action is on that thing... I think joe could probably play slide on any action height. man i need to practice.
