I had a chance to catch him when he played in Denver Co May 8th. it
was a totaly killer show. he did make some comments about women there
as well, but the women at the concert seemed to go nuts when he said
them. I got to talk to him briefly after the concert during his
autograph session, hes a pretty cool guy, a bit of a big ego but then
again what sucessful musician dosent have one lol. oveall I think he's
a pretty kick ass dude.

night; though there was a moment early on as he ran the neck of guitar
hard against his amp until it cried out with screeching reverb, which
he followed up with a somewhat classless comment, "that's how I treat
my women !" Hey Ladies-Form a Double Line !! He's irresistible !!
