Well for those of you that are in the UK, here's the dates. As far as the US?
One gig, Red Rocks...

He FINALLY goes where I've wanted him to go for years and years. That Strat thru the Marshall Silver Jubilee sounds awesome~! And he just rips though that 12 bar like nobody's business, incredible technique.

Strat through Jubilee..........wish that was the case when i saw him a couple weeks ago. It was a myriad of killer guitars but he played Tweeds all night.....i was jonesing for his high gain sound........

I felt the same when I saw him in Wilkes Barre a few weeks back...he was awesome...but I missed the huge Marshall tones, the Zep cover encores and even the theremin.
 
I wish he would do more dates for this concept. I saw him a couple weeks ago and was really hoping he would play more of his older material. I feel like his newer material is almost too bluesy if that is even possible. I liked the rock element to some of his older stuff.
 
I've only seen him once, on the Dust Bowl Tour. Have to say, it was cool when he pulled out a Petrucci and went at it. And I agree with geese; some more dates for this would be very cool. At the rate he puts stuff out, I'm sure I'll have a Live DVD of it before too long.
 
I like this stuff, though I am not a super-fan of Bonamassa.

But wooow, is it me or that attack, at the very beginning, was completely wrong?
 
Even if you're not a fan, here's some dressing room playing at low volume, really good advice and tips about guitar tones and he hits some great licks too.

 
"I could join Slayer with this amp." (4:30) Talking about his Fender tweed. Hilarious. This is a really good interview and definitely some cool playing. I don't care what anyone says....I AM a huge JB fan. The dude is just a phenom pure and simple.
 
Recent concert from Dublin...Be prepared to have your mind blown. Joe does "Beck's Bolero/Rice Pudding"...with his Wall Screamin' of Tweeds~!
