Are You Ready for Chickenfoot?

I find it extremely interesting that the new band "Chickenfoot" is the second most popular search term used to find this blog (#1 - "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band", don't ask me why!). There has been a debate going on in my comments for months. Apparently people have strong opinions of this "superstar" group.

So I'm very interested to hear their sound and find out what the buzz our there is about their music. This clip below is om their official website, not sure what it says about these guys but anyone who would name their band "Chickenfoot" is not worried about what people think. That gives me hope that the music may actually be....good???

Check out THIS to see what I mean

Oh, and to answer their question in the above clip:

Chickenfoot is:

Sammy Hagar
Michael Anthony
Joe Satriani
Chad Smith (red hot chili peppers)

Joe Satriani - Review

Sometimes I have the privilege of reviewing a new CD or DVD and this week I received two in one - the 20 year anniversary edition of "Surfing with the Alien".

I just finished watching the DVD and it was excellent. I lost track of time because I was so enthralled with Joe's talent, he never disappoints. He's truly one of the masters of guitar. His style is hard to define, because its all his own. He mixes hard rock, instrumental rock, jazz and blues and created his own unique techniques.

Legendary bass player, Stu Hamm, is featured on the DVD and does this insane solo that defies description, its sort of like his bass was transformed into a guitar, banjo and harp during this song. Really cool.

If your a fan of "Satch" I highly recommend this new release, if you're not, listen to it and become a fan! It hits the stores on August 7th!

On a personal note, I need to make my next boyfriend either plays guitar or loves to listen to it as much as I do. No exceptions. Joe Satriani loves his guitar, I want a man with that kind of passion.
