If it's pricey enough to make people think twice then no wonder they're having to push it hard via radio ads.
"The Guitar Event of the Year" it's billed as.
Arf.
When I went to see him, Syd Little was in the audience.
haha nope, but he did make me think to myself "Is THIS my peer group?!"
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

I believe Nickelback are the ones about whom someone started a fundraising campaign to pay them not to come to London.
What a waste of time. If people don't like something just turn it off. No need to waste energy on bleating about it.
I still think that the tag line about 'guitar event of the year' is hyperbole, but if people want to spend their money on it that's up to them.
It's just the heavy rotation of the ad since before Xmas that got me thinking.
Interestingly I've just heard it again on the radio, and it says something like 'give someone the gift of music and buy a ticket,' which is something else that sounds a bit odd to me, but there you go....
Some people get the dubious tag of being fashionable to dislike and I think they fall into that category.
I'm not a massive fan of either but there are some Nickelback songs I quite happily sing out in the car, How You Remind Me being one. The front man having Spaniel hair probably doesn't help and they take the hate pretty well.
Joe Bonamassa I genuinely haven't heard much if him other than what comes on Planet Rock and most of it does nothing for me.
I'd quite happily swap places with either, especially Nickelback bloke as I'm not quite old enough to be Avril Lavignes dad
I've seen him 8 times but never in last 3 years since he went stellar. First time : Cheese & Grain, Frome and £12 a ticket.
Average US venue tickets about $60. Rip off Britain.
No the wonder he has 5 Bursts! Must be saving for his 6th.

Like all popular performers he divides opinion somewhat, though I suspect him being a guitarist means those opinions are more strongly expressed.
Either way I explained why I posted this in the first place. With that in mind if you don't mind doing me a favour you could give me an idea of how well attended it is, just to satisfy my curiosity.
