Petrucci clinic in Mich!!!

movingpictures · Jul 16, 2005

Just thought id pass along some info i recieved a couple days ago. John Petrucci will be doing a clinic at Motor City Guitar in Waterford, MI. I believe it will be on Tuesday August 9th at 7 pm. The day before DT will play the Gigantour. The store owner told me that to get a ticket for entry, you have to purchase JP or DT related merch. I suggested that he order a bunch of the JP solo cds, and have them available for sale. Im sure he will have the usual other stuff also, tab books, DT cds, dvd, vhs stuff, etc. Hes a EBMM dealer also so he will probobly have some JP models in stock. If your located in Detroit try to make it down, should be awesome. Dave

Clinics are a great way to see these guys. Up close, no cover, Q&A.

I love 'em.

hey guys if the dealer in fact is requiring you to purchase anything it is against the rules.
Derek if you are reading this please call the dealer and explain or else we will cancel the clinic.....it is supposed to be free

Hi guys,

We have formally asked JP to hold some clinics in Las Vegas and Florida. At this time we are unaware of any clinic or request for a clinic in the Michigan Area. Rest assured on monday 7-18 we will investigate and get to the bottom of this.

Thanks

Derek, is this going to be a covert operation? I can just imagine the EB Swat team going into action.

...I'm not sure how covert the operation will be if both BP and Derek have set forth plans on a worldwide Internet forum.

Derek, how about hooking up Phoenix or Tucson with a clinic sometime? I promise, NorM and I will do everything in our power to prevent your artists from melting.

hey guys maybe it is a boogie clinic or dream heatre sponsored. If that is the case they can do what they want. There is never a charge for an eb mm clinic

AlanJR · Jul 17, 2005

I'm there! Hopefully, there's no problem with the clinic and the show will go on.

movingpictures · Jul 17, 2005

Hey guys, dont get all defensive about it npt being free. I didnt say it was an EBMM clinic. I said it was a JOHN PETRUCCI clinic!!! The store just happens to ne a dealer. They are also a Boogie dealer. The store owner set it up, and wants to keep the clinic limited to JP fans and the like. I was wondering weather or not to post it here since it would increase the volume of people, and some might be offended by the purchase to get in. Thats what the owner told me and thought i would be kind enough to pass it along.

moving pictures thanks for the info!

Or by the other guys "...OH S @ #$%T!!!!"...usually followed by the sound of a sack of potatoes hitting the floor.

If you can go, you must. I was lucky enough to be able to fly to North Carolina last October to see John's master class and clinic at the Raleigh Music Academy. Master class in the afternoon and clinic/performance at night. It was incredible. He was great and signed a ton of stuff afterward. I got a pic with him and he signed my Pet and a bunch of other stuff.

During the master class, we all picked numbered tickets out of a hat and the ones that got called got to jam on stage with him.

He said it was the first master class he'd ever done in the states.

What an experience.

I'm with you on this one - I've got my tickets for the Hard Rock Live Gigantour gig on 6th August - a clinic around then would be great
