Luke In Cleveland November 15th

[Volt]

Just a heads-up for my fellow Cleveland area EBMM forumites that Steve Lukather will be at the Tribute to Mister Les Paul (not the instrument) at Playhouse Square in Cleveland November 15th 2008. Hope to see you there.

Wow. I have two shows that night (of course) but I'll be there in spirit. Take some pics!

Luke was a show stealer in many respects. So was Jennifer Batten. Both gave incredible performances. Luke's interpretation of "Somewhere over the Rainbow" was breathtaking. It was a fantastic night and a great, informative week-long tribute to a true master and innovator of the electric guitar.

man, what an amazing night! I dont even know where to start. I got alot of love from all the cats and there was SO many diverse players and styles and LOTS of laughs. Google les paul tribute in cleveland or something like that. It will have more details.
I flew in with Billy Gibbons. My new best pal. I saw lots of old friends, made new ones and I think I was one of the few that had played with almost everyone at some point or another.
Les took my aside and gave me a hug. I am not worthy. I played a Les paul out of respect for him, but y'all know I am MUSIC MAN 1 MILLION %!
I am home now and changing diapers. Reality. hahaha
have a great day

Hello all. My son and I are newbies here but not to the EBMM brand.
We were fortunate enough to go to the Les Paul show on Saturday and I have to say that Luke was definitely worth the price of admission. Luke, I can appreciate you playing the LP but your guitar is way better.

Hey Luke. It's R.J. I'm 9 years old and I am your BIGGEST FAN. My dad just bought me a Luke guitar and hopefully I can be as good as you.

Damn, I missed the show. Nature picked a real bad time to give me the flu. Grrrrrr.
