Interviewing MJR this weekend...

[Stardust2112]

Anyone got any questions?

~Christina

 

[Dado-x]

1. Does he ever think of being involved in a jazz/fusion project? if so, when?

2. Has he ever met any of his guitar heroes (Yngwie, Al DiMeola, Allan Holdsworth)? If so, did they throw a jam together?

3. Ask him about HIS favorite vocalists.

4. Tell him I said hello.

Is he going to make a follow up to "The Dark Chapter"?

 

[RequiemX]

Will there be a new instructional video/DVD or even a rerelease of his old one?

 

[sweepking]

I would really like to know if he was asked to contribute to the Alchemists cd. If he wasn't, then I would be really surprised...especially since the guy who put it together said in an interview he was a MJR fan. They could have at least put a song off Dark Chapter on there.

Oh another one, did he take lessons from Rob Johnson...I saw this on an internet site and was wondering if it is true. I know he knows him and thinks highly of his playing. Also, what does he think of Michael Angelo?

 

[Strat Player]

tell him to get symphony x to come to vancouver!!!!!!!!

 

[Ultimate_Symphony]

Also, what does he think of Michael Angelo?

Agreed, it would be great to hear his opinion

and my question
Are they going to play in Puerto Rico someday? (if they know where that is )

 

[SymphonyOfDreams]

Ask him what does he think of Mike Portnoy's idea of making a prog version of "Ozzfest"?

PEACE...

I asked him this yesterday..he said they'd love to someday.

Most of the time where they play is up to promoters/labels/the people with the $, so the band's not the one saying "We want to play here, and here, and there".

 

[Dieblo]

ask him if they have made the castlevania sound track.

I was just wondering if you could direct me to any websites that talk of this idea as it's the first i've heard of it. Thanks!

Pozzfest

That's a pretty damn cool idea... And it should happen in australia

 

[ChrisM.]

Did he take lessons from Greg Howe? Many of his tapping licks bring Howe to mind, and he also thanks him in the Dark Chapter CD.

It's probably already too late; but I'd love to know if "Frontiers" is on the Jap import version.

Oh and how in hell did he ever come up with that epic gem of sheer beauty called "The Edge Of Forever"?

That Dream Theater/Satriani show was the best concert I've ever been to. Nothing beats seeing John Myung and John Petrucci playing soccer on stage
