    I had never heard of Joe Bonamassa, and then I was looking at the Gibson website and they announced a new Joe Bonamassa signature guitar, and I thought “If he gets a signature guitar, how good a player must he be?” so I checked him out on CZcams, and before you know it I and two of my friends are in front of the stage in The Old Royal Navy College in Greenwich… then again at Hampton Court Palace… and then Joe’s music is carrying me through stage four cancer to remission!
    Norm’s guitar of the day videos and Joe’s music helped get me through a very dark time in 2018-19.
    Thanks Joe and Norm (and Michael Lemmo).

    I love it because he just loves to play. Only 2 things I ever wanted to do were play guitar and fly. Ended up flying for a career but I still play everyday and still play in bands. I still have the passion that I wish I could perform almost everyday. Admittedly it’s a bit harder when you’re doing all the setup and tear down but it’s still worth it. Watching him play and seeing his passion is like living your dream through him. His story is a great one.

    Good to see that Norm is loking good again. I prayed for him when he was ill and to my recollection this might be one of the first times I have seen him in a video and looking like he is back to his same old self which is really great to see. God is good and answers prayers when we intercede for others, just sometimes the answers we get are not always as we might expect or within our own time frame, it is a very delicate thing, and the Lord's will is entirely up to Him but I love that he chooses to let us be involved in praying for others, and our earnest Prayers for others, whoever they are -- will have powerful results. See: James 5:16, Prayer does Work folks.

    That looks like the ‘62 Strat I bought in 1978 with money I saved from mowing lawns. It was refinished dark green almost black. I took it to George’s music in Kansas City on North Oak and had it refinished in Fender Candy Apple Red but kept all the original pickup covers and pick guard. It was a great first professional instrument. I traded it in 1980 to Jim Colclasure (Kansas City area vintage dealer) with $1000 for my 1959 Gibson ES-345.
