Joe Bonamassa...anyone ever hear him?
A friend gave me one of his CDs with a DVD. I watched the DVD last night and this kid is something else.
He was asked to open for B.B.King at the age of 12. If you like the blues, and haven't heard this cat, buy his records.

1. Yes indeed I have
and you're right, he's good. And he's involved with the Blues in the Schools program through the Blues Foundation. Check out his latest cd,"Blues Deluxe". Its a good one. And check him out at the Mississippi Valley Blues Fest if you can. He's playing on Friday, June 30. For details, you can go to www.mvbs.org. Sorry, just a little hometown pride.

2. I heard him open for BB King
A few years ago. He's an amazing guitar player. His album wasn't nearly as good as hearing him in concert though.

3. I've heard OF him
but never heard him play.

There was a thread here a year or so ago that had guitar players with the head removed and people were supposed to supply the names. With a bit of help from other DUers, I got all of them except him (since i'd never heard of him)

ooh it still exists, so play it again if you didn't last time:
