new DT signatures - on guitar ftw
« on: September 18, 2011, 09:10:38 PM »


from the Guitar Center NYC signing a few days ago.

summary of meeting:
Myung said nothing except "thanks man" when I gave him a copy of my CD.
Petrucci remembered me from the last time I saw him (Terminal 5 NYC) which is insane. He commented on never having seen a guitar like mine (it is a custom thing). He was very outgoing and gracious and extremely friendly.
LaBrie said almost nothing except things like "yeah man" or "cool" but was smiling and friendly.
Rudess was on autopilot with the signatures - he signed the guitar before I could give him my high quality marker (that's why his signature isn't as bold) but he was friendly when I complimented him.
Mangini was amazingly friendly - greeting me and putting his hand out to shake before I could even say anything. I was surprised by how small he was -- he really looks tiny! His attitude with the fans is more like Petrucci's. He seems genuinely overjoyed to be part of DT and it was great to meet him.

It was a great experience to meet them again (Mangini obviously for the first time) and I can't wait to see them at the Beacon in October!

Sweet!
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Glad to hear you had such a wonderful meet and greet. Are you gonna clearcoat your axe's back side or just not play it any more?

John Myung has the nicest signature (IMO)

Neither -- its my main axe so I'm not going to stop playing it, and with those markers the sigs aren't going anywhere.

Damn, nice signatures!  Thanks for sharing.  I was there too.  Great experience that I'll never forget!
