Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Not only is Joe Satriani a hell of a shredder on the guitar, early in his career he taught a bunch of guitarists like Steve Vai, Metallica's Kirk Hammett and Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello. Now Satriani's giving away free half-hour lessons. Well, the only catch is that you have to buy one of his Ibanez JS 20th signature guitars on Sunday, March 14 when he'll give an in-store appearance at the Musician's Superstore from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. Check out the Musician's Superstore for more details.
Satriani just released a new DVD, Live in Paris: I Just Wanna Rock, and perform along with Eric Johnson, Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Billy Cox and a whole bunch of others on March 14 at Paramount Theatre as part of the Experience Hendrix Tour.
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
