Weiss jemand ob es einen Sitzplan oder so von der Halle in Offenbach gibt ? Gibt nur noch Stehplätze was ja nicht weiter schlimm ist, je nach dem wo sie liegen ....

Passend zum Anlass las ich vor 2 Tagen ein Interview mit Joe Satriani. Die mMn interessanteste Stelle wird folgend zitiert (WAHNSINNIG GUTE ÜBERLEGUNG MIT JEFF BECK UND BILLY GIBBONS DAS WÄRE MEIN TRAUM):

Is it a different feeling for you doing a solo tour versus performing on a G3 tour?
Oh, of course. Everybody goes up there and we only have 45 minutes each so you're not really carrying the burden of a two-and-a-half hour show on your shoulders. So everybody feels a little bit more liberated and everything is a bit more upbeat as well. You don't take the audience down into the deepest moments because you don't have enough time to bring them out. And everything is geared towards that jam at the end of the night. Because when we do the jams we don't do any of our solo material and that's also a bit liberating because everybody can kind of drop their guard and play anything that's part of their style and their roots.

You'd like to have Jeff Beck do a G3 tour with you?
Oh, of course. It would be fantastic. We came really close a few years ago to getting a G3 together with Billy Gibbons and Jeff and it just kind of fell apart at the last moment. It's a very difficult thing to pull off structurally to find three or six weeks where everyone is completely available and their side of the business gets worked out and all the promoters are happy. So usually that's all it is that we can't schedule the thing properly. But everyone was willing and it would be a dream come true to be able to play with Jeff or Billy or even to get someone like Jimmy Page to come out. I think the audience would bless them with so much love just because they decided to finally come out. Because when the audience sees a G3 they're seeing something they don't get anywhere else. To see guitar players come out and bounce off each other and play outside of the stuff they're usually campaigning for or their new record, is a very unique kind of a show. And the audience I think rewards the artist with a very special kind of love. It's very hard for me to explain to the prospective G3 player but I always tell them, "You gotta be prepared for it because you're gonna love it once you feel what they've given you.";
