Hey guys,
tomorrow I´ll have the pleasure to meet Paul Gilbert himself. My mother´s christmas present for me is a VIP ticket. I´ll have a lesson with him and then I can hear the soundcheck and of course the concert. I´ll show you some pics.

Cheers!
Tolek

Awesome, I was to one of these earlier this year and it was amazing. A bit scary to jam with him, but still really fun. I hope you have as much of a good time as I did! Infact, I'm sure you will.

Posted by: Tolek Nov 10 2008, 07:02 PM

For sure! I hope I´ll be not that amazed that I can´t play anymore...

Posted by: Kuba Szafran Nov 10 2008, 07:11 PM

Huhu, szczerze Ci zazdroszcze ! Chociaz Paul Gilbert to nie jest partner do jamowania ze mna haha <zart >.

I'm so jealous hope you have a great time,Iwill look forward to the Photos

Wlasnie fajnie jest ze taki swietny gitarzysta uczy mlodszych i mniej doswiatczonych i znimi jamuje. TO jest idol. Ale ty bys jemu sie chyba podobal. Dobrze grasz. Fajna nowa lekcja.


Nenene!

W pazdzierniku mial koncert w Polsce, ale nie mialem mozliwosci wyjazdu. Z tego co czytalem na forum to lekki wstyd. Taki gitarzysta przyjechal do Polski, a sala ledwo do polowy wypelniona. Na dodatek ktos w srodku koncertu krzyknal "spier****". Coz, taki kraj ... Mam nadzieje, ze u was Paul da swietny koncert i publicznosc nie zawiedzie !

Posted by: Tolek Nov 10 2008, 07:24 PM

Ale swinstwo... Czemu taki dziad poszedl na koncert od PG ktorego potem wyzywa?

Trduno jest zeby hala byla pusta. Przekonaj sie sam: http://www.atelier.lu/ Wejdz na Infos -> przedostatni punkt gdzie sa zdjecia. Na koncertu Vaia bylo pelno i ja stalem 2 metry przed nim. Pokaze zdjecia od PG.

Posted by: Kuba Szafran Nov 10 2008, 07:27 PM

Hoo, widze, ze w marcu Steve Lukather jest. Tez pewnie dobry koncert bedzie. Fajne ma niektore kawalki z nowej plyty.

Bring something to record or film the whole thing
I would love to see or hear that stuff

Have fun !

Posted by: Tolek Nov 10 2008, 07:30 PM

Ja go za bardzo nie znam. Musial bym troszke poreszerszowac.


Unfortunately, I am not allowed to film the rehearsal. But I can record audio. Maybe I am gonna post it.

Posted by: Pedja Simovic Nov 10 2008, 07:41 PM

You can use some audio recorder - hide it haha

Posted by: Tolek Nov 10 2008, 07:43 PM

I don´t have to hide it. That is allowed.

Posted by: Pedja Simovic Nov 10 2008, 07:54 PM

Then you are all set
Practice some awesome licks and show Paul whos the man

Posted by: Tolek Nov 10 2008, 08:09 PM

Done.
I plan to play the actual advanced challange of GMC: http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/solo-guitar/tapping-and-legato-lesson/. It looks and sounds awesome but isn´t difficult at all. And I want to show "Quicksilver" by Andrew York.

I am so looking forward to meeting Paul tomorrow.

Posted by: Pedja Simovic Nov 10 2008, 09:08 PM

Yes !
That lesson is cool I think Paul will like it a lot

Posted by: DeepRoots Nov 10 2008, 09:11 PM

Have a great time Tolek- unfortunately i've had to give up my ticket...i need to put the money towards living costs while I'm at uni- which sucks a little. Enjoy yourself though mate

Posted by: Kuba Szafran Nov 10 2008, 09:12 PM

Tell Paul to check GMC, maybe he'll find some time to see us .

Posted by: Tolek Nov 10 2008, 09:17 PM

I´m so sorry... If I had the money, I´d help you, but...
Your decision was very wise, education is the most important at the moment.


OMG! I don´t want to annoy him. He doesn´t have the time...
(I know you are joking, but anyway... )

Posted by: DeepRoots Nov 10 2008, 09:20 PM

Haha well its not education...its living Which means i get to eat for a month or go and see Paul Gilbert Easy choice for a food lover like me...

...it sucks, but life goes on Have a good time

Posted by: Tolek Nov 10 2008, 09:25 PM

I love food, too, but I am currently on diet... => Less eating means more PG!

Posted by: Tjchep Nov 10 2008, 09:28 PM

This could be use full before going into the jam!!

Posted by: sidewas lightning Nov 10 2008, 09:36 PM

I couldn't do a lesson with him. I'd fall over, and that would be embarrassing.
Seriously, though, have fun!

Posted by: Tolek Nov 10 2008, 09:39 PM

Wow, awesome video! Thanks for sharing.
This time Paul is going to hear me!


I try to not fall over. Thanks.

Tolek, dwa razy w zyciu widzłem na zywo Satrianiego i Vai'a ale za Gilberta dalbym sie pokrajac! Zazdroszcze kolego, bo gosc procz niesamowitej gry posiada jeszcze pare innych atutow. Jest po prostu awesom:-)
Pozdrowionka!!!

Posted by: Fsgdjv Nov 10 2008, 11:55 PM

Can someone please translate?

Posted by: Tolek Nov 11 2008, 12:24 PM

Thanks for the vidoe. I am going to see it tomorrow maybe.


Rzeczywiscie (dobrze napisalem?) PG jest niesamowity. Ja widzialem Vaia w ostatnim roku na zywo, ale nie rozmawialem z nim. Zato dostalem dwie kostki odniego.
Pozdrowienia!



He said that he had seen Steve Vai and Joe Satriani two times in his life. However, he would let cut himself for meeting PD. He is jaleous because PG isn´t only an awesome guitarist, he has also other great characteristic traits. He is just awesome! Cheers.




Only some minutes left until I get my bus to Luxembourg-City.

Posted by: Muris Varajic Nov 11 2008, 12:30 PM

You lucky,congrats!

Posted by: Tolek Nov 11 2008, 12:41 PM

Yeah! Thanks.
I finished cleaning my guitar. I just have to take the papers, my camera and something to write down and to wait for the bus. I´m going off now, I don´t want to get more confused. At school, I couldn´t concentrate for a minute. Except in music.

Cheers, see you tomorrow, guys!

Posted by: g-forcelover Nov 11 2008, 04:28 PM

You are so lucky. How much are VIP tickets in $?

Posted by: Tolek Nov 12 2008, 09:33 PM

Hey guys. The concert was amazing. I started writing a summary but I hit a key or something and it all disappeared. So, no summary for the moment.
I can´t connect to my webspace at the moment, so no pics neither.

See you soon, stinky little gmcers.





I got connected.

Posted by: Bondy Nov 12 2008, 09:35 PM

Cool pics Tolek

Posted by: Pedja Simovic Nov 12 2008, 09:53 PM

Awesome pics !
The one with the drill is brilliant

Posted by: Pizzoaro Nov 12 2008, 10:29 PM

Dude! Sweet! U tried his drill! Im like not jealous at all now.... *hiding in the corner being emo*

Posted by: Tolek Nov 13 2008, 07:46 PM

Thanks guys!

Hahaha! Do you want an emo knife?
That drill actually is the first one he did with his father. It has got some years down, now. And his guitar was so low on my little body. It was at the height of my knees...

Posted by: Muris Varajic Nov 25 2008, 09:12 PM

Great pictures Tolek!!

Posted by: Tolek Nov 25 2008, 09:18 PM

I´m glad you like them.

I should write the description, finally! This WE I should have enough time...


Edit: Yeeha! Post No. 700.

Posted by: Canis Nov 25 2008, 10:21 PM

Wow, congrats for meeting the Big Cheese himself
I heard he smells like wool, any truth to that?

Oh, and of course congrats on your 700 post anniversary ^^

Posted by: Tolek Nov 26 2008, 01:31 PM

Wool? I actually didn't really smell him. My senses were shocked by his playing.

Posted by: Vinod Saranga Nov 26 2008, 04:01 PM

Cool pics mate 

You are so lucky 

Posted by: kjutte Nov 26 2008, 04:08 PM

Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Nov 26 2008, 04:37 PM
