G3 is something I've wanted to go to for a long time, if it had existed when I was 16 I would have already been to every possible tour because I'm a guitar geek! I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but I have been to a couple of Joe Satriani gigs with my brother over the years and even seen Steve Vai do a 30 minute solo spot at the Donnington Monsters of Rock Festival in 1990! Anyway, tomorrow night G3 is coming to Sydney and I managed to score a free ticket, woohoo!

P.S. I can't believe Joe was 50 this year!!!!

That rocks! I've been fortunate to see them twice - once with Eric Johnson and once with John P.

I hope they make it round here again (NC, USA)... The end of the show jam is usually a blast! I'd love to catch the Zappa Plays Zappa Tour but don't have the time to take off nor the $$$.

OOOh. I want to go!
It's been so long since I saw Satch live and I love his new album.
Shred!

Man, G3 is such a phenominal show - my wife scored me a ticket last minute when they came to TO with Petrucci a few years back. Stu Hamm threw an autographed copy of his bass strings directly at my head at the end of the show.

It's just mind boggling...sit through Petrucci thinking, wow, it just doesn't get better than this, and then Vai kicks it up a notch, and then - BAM - Satch rocks your world. Enjoy the concert!
