Use Your #! Turn Signal
Here’s a nice major pentatonic lick that caught my ear while listening to Everybody Use Your Goddamn Turn Signal off of Paul Gilbert’s latest album, I Can Destroy. Tell it, Paul!

Lately I’ve been stealing lines from my favorite fusion players and this post takes a great phrase from Greg Howe’s Jump Start and applies it to some common jazz chords.
Won’t You be Surprised!
We’re boarding the bus to see the preacher – and won’t you be surprised at the results!
Transport yourself to the 1960’s deep south and follow Violet across the country as she searches for a miracle and discovers the true meaning of beauty, courage and love.
Violet is filled with twangy country, soaring gospel, searing blues and toe tapping honky-tonk music. I’ll be playing guitar and I’m thrilled to share the stage with Evan who will be playing violin.
Violet runs April 10 – May 3 at the Theatre on San Pedro Square. I hope to see you there!
