Location: Miami | Howdy, gals and gents. Long time no post. As some of you know, I won the customized Adamas in the guitar video tutorial contest last year. Unfortunately the guitar was not ready to make it onto this album (but it'll be on the next :-)
My lovely Ovation 1868TX is featured in this new home-made album, entitled (appropriately) "D.I.Y.".
Wontcha give it a listen and buy something if you like it?

You have a hell of a voice, and your band kicks a$$!
Looking forward to hearing that Adamas though!

This is the highest compliment you could have paid me, since there is no band!  |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Damn, I had a vision of a couple of hot chicks singing the backup on "Ecumenical Day". You replaced that with the image of you with a bunch of equipment in your bedroom. It just doesn't give me the same vibe. Guess I'm not that much of a guitar gearhead yet. Great show of your many talents, Joe. Not just a good voice, but good voices. |

Location: Miami | Thanks, everyone for the feedback! I do sell hardcopies! Email me your address and I'll send one :-)
(You can email me from the contact page on the website)
On the comments about the recording: thank you so much! I need that kind of motivation! It took me a year and a half to make it (two years if you count the time it took me to learn how to do it).
You can also see pics of my home studio on the pics page (sorry about all the pictures of me - that's my wife's doing :-)
In one pic you can see the recorder I used with the built in drum pads (to answer another question! No drum loops! All played for real - just not an a real drum kit!)
