Many many years ago, my wife and I saw Joe Bonamassa at the Tralf in Buffalo New York. Keep in mind at the time he was relatively unknown. We got there an hour and a half early because it was general seating ,my wife thought I was nuts. It was a small venue. We sat at a cocktail table around 20 feet from the stage and we were just blown away! Talk about upfront and personal! It was a full house and his parents were in the crowd who he acknowledged during the show ,years later after his career took off we saw him at much larger venues, and to this day he still puts on an absolutely fabulous show! he keeps getting better Year, after year and he is so gracious and humble simply an amazing talent.
Thank you for this gigantic interview! We learn a lot of essential things for someone who wants to get into music, but also for young people or less young people who want to succeed in their professional life and especially their personal life. Joe's advice is a real diamond of wisdom and personal experience, a river of beauty and intelligence very rare coming directly from his sincere and generous heart. Joe is a giant of the art of life set to music and interpreted with talent and free spirit! We bow before perfection!😎
Have been to five of Joe's concerts...if you have not seen him live you don't know what you're missing. Absolutely fabulous. Mountain Time at the Royal Albert is sheer heaven.
Joe is a bad mfn bluesman. Get a front row seat to one of his shows and be amazed. People like to compare but I like oranges apples grapes and so on and I don't want them to remind me of each other. I always appreciate those who get an interview with him. The interviews keep getting more interesting as he continues to season as a bluesman
Love this! Joe’s a true original, and he just keeps bringing more to every performance. Blues has so many styles and personalities-just like the apples, oranges, and grapes you mentioned! Each artist adds their own flavor, and Joe definitely brings his strong personality into his music as well. 🎸
Just remember we love you joe and pleaseeeee don't turn into someone who forgets what the heat from the crowd feels when your eyes are closed and your cranking out that bad ass bent note because you love the music😊
Thanks for the heartfelt reminder! Joe’s passion for music and connecting with the crowd is still at the core of everything he does. The business side just helps him keep making the music he loves. Trust that every note still comes from that same place of love for the music! 🎸🙏😊
Joe gives great interviews......down to earth, regular musician, lots of stories, keeps the momentum going, is honest to a fault...what's not to like? Appreciate your work thus far Joe. More, please sir....
Thank you the workers behind the “scene” and the good people making possible the “spectacle” and great to be alive listening a special artist Joe Bonamassa. Thank you God!
We’re so glad you enjoyed the talk, and thank you for the appreciation! It’s an honor to help share Joe's music with everyone. Hope to see you around the channel-new episodes are coming every week!
Tommy came into the store with the singer of Pavlov's Dog. He was playing a Les Paul Custom with a Bigsby . The singer went in back and put Spectrum on the record player. Tommy was playing along minus the ecoplex. The owner of the store looked perplexed that he could play along ( I don't thing he knew it was Tommy on the record). Then he proceeded to play Jerry Reed style country rag. A lot of people know he was a great guitarist, but I am not sure if they know how many styles he had mastered. He came in the store quite a few times and he knowledge was vast on the guitar. And never egotistical about it .
God Bless you Joe, I appreciate all you do and I love your story, F*** the haters, they're just jealous, period. Enjoy the life and success. Make sure to let go of all the negativity that comes, be sure that doesn't poison the real you
It really is a beautiful name! Joe pointed out that a long name can be tricky in showbiz-maybe it doesn’t fit well on a poster-but it’s definitely memorable and suits the legend he’s become in the blues world. 🎸
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊 The UFO record player is such a cool retro touch, right? Brings back those '80s vibes in the best way-your friend's dad had great taste! 🚀🎶
I love joe but you watch and see joe I changing from his humble humble old self to something that isn't himself and you can literally see it when he is on stage it's really sad to watch because joe has been a hero for so long but it's like now he is getting that star attitude, we like the humble help you in anyway possible joe
Thanks for sharing your thoughts again! While Joe may come across differently on stage or in front of the cameras, our experience preparing and hosting him for the podcast was truly genuine. His journey’s been one of grit and hard work, and he’s aware of what it’s taken to get here. 💙
Here I am being that commenter. But for the record, I am a player. Pretty foundationally blues. But, while I was a gigging musician, I was also a janitor for about a decade. The opening where Joe shut down the guys working.... that was as far as I watched. Moving chairs is their thing like playing guitar is others'.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! The moment in the beginning was a bit of an unexpected hiccup. Joe, being the seasoned pro he is, was just trying to make sure the audio and focus stayed solid for the shoot-it wasn’t meant to disrespect anyone working behind the scenes. The venue was already set up for filming, so the interruption caught us all off guard. We have a lot of respect for everyone involved, from the crew to the production team, and we’re all about keeping things smooth for everyone. Hope you give the rest of the episode a shot-there’s some great stuff in there! 🎸😊
@@dopeYEAHtalk I am just some guy, so I want to say I very much appreciate this thoughtful comment. I looked for an email address because I did and do not want to be 'that' guy out in public. I am not a troll. I actually care about such things... so, let me just say thanks for taking the time here. You don't owe me that and it is not lost on me. I will watch other vids on your channel for sure and wish you well.
@@BlugubriousMusic Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful message-it truly means a lot to us. We’re all about genuine conversations here, and your care and perspective are greatly appreciated. We're glad to have you with us, and we hope you enjoy exploring the other videos on our channel. Wishing you all the best too! 🙌
@ChrisShortyAllen she's dead... Died in an ambulance two days before Christmas... And she did not take care of me when I was little I dressed myself... So there might be something to your question.
The dad texted his daughter and said the money is burried in the desert. I bet ‘the desert’ was a spot in the backyard that she called the desert when she was a little girl
That’s a great question! Hearing Joe's perspective on Ticketmaster would definitely be interesting. Maybe a topic for a future conversation? Stay tuned! 😊🎶
Music and showbiz are some of the toughest jobs out there, but the rewards are among the best! :) And the best part? You get to share those rewards with anyone who's ready to tune in! 🎧
Well, I stopped watching this 2 mins in; you DO NOT speak to your supporting team like that! Yet again another beautiful example as to why Mr B is such a polarised artists. I stand firm that he is a legendary player, but his character is less pleasing. Such a great shame.
Thank you for sharing your perspective! Joe is passionate about creating the best experience for his audience, and in this case, he stepped in to ensure the recording quality met the high standards everyone deserves. The venue had already been carefully set up for the interview, and unexpected interruptions can be a real challenge in such a sensitive audio environment. While it may have come across strongly, it was all about respecting the hard work of the production team and delivering something extraordinary for fans. We hope you give the episode another chance-it’s filled with fantastic insights and moments worth watching!
I was there as production guy when this happened. These were some guys from the venue and even though they were kindly asked not to make noises several time before the filming, they just did not respect our kind request. Joe was a bit harsh but trust me that it was justified.

Joseph Leonard Bonamassa is a beautiful name ♥
It really is a beautiful name! Joe pointed out that a long name can be tricky in showbiz-maybe it doesn’t fit well on a poster-but it’s definitely memorable and suits the legend he’s become in the blues world. 🎸

Ah. Does your mother still dress you?
@ChrisShortyAllen she's dead... Died in an ambulance two days before Christmas... And she did not take care of me when I was little I dressed myself... So there might be something to your question.
howdy Joe,,
Hi, we hope you enjoyed the talk 🎧
The dad texted his daughter and said the money is burried in the desert. I bet ‘the desert’ was a spot in the backyard that she called the desert when she was a little girl
I'm his curious on his thoughts on ticket Master
That’s a great question! Hearing Joe's perspective on Ticketmaster would definitely be interesting. Maybe a topic for a future conversation? Stay tuned! 😊🎶
Somebody asked me how u play like that? I replied he doesn't know. He just does
The way he tell. the tech guys to stop making noise and to basically shuta at the begining up is obnoxious. i would have throw the chair at him.
Everyone complains about how much money you made.....but no one wants to do the work (to get to that place).

And by the title, I thought I was going to here the advice part. But it’s a British guy obnoxious tonguing joe’s balls
👉8:55 "if you want something done, do it yourself" 9:03 "build your own castle" .. is what i got out of it 🔥🚬😬
I will never play god in your life
