After the Aristocrats finish tracking their next studio album in early-Feb at the famous Sunset Studio in Hollywood where the likes of Led Zeppelin and Van Halen have recorded their classic albums, Guthrie will embark on a short clinic tour I arranged over the past several months. I was going to arrange a more extensive tour covering more cities but Guthrie needs to get back to UK to start rehearsing for the next Steven Wilson tour so it'll be a short but sweet clinic tour as following:

Feb 17 Tue - Musicians Institute and USC, Los Angeles, CA
Feb 18 Wed - Wild West Guitars (Charvel-sponsored clinic), Riverside, CA
Feb 20 Fri - Make'n Music, Chicago, IL
Feb 22 Sun - Cosmo Music, Richmond (Toronto), Ontario, Canada
Feb 23 Mon - The Music Zoo, New York, NY
Feb 24 Tue - Berklee Performance Center (concert with Jon Finn Group)
Feb 25 Wed - Berklee College of Music, Boston, MA

The MI, USC, and Berklee clinics will not be open to the public but the rest should be open to all. Please check with the hosts for more details.

Hopefully that can happen in the summer when the Aristocrats embark on a major US tour after the next studio album is released in late-June/early-July time frame.

Guthrie is in midst of this US clinic tour and I was able to attend the Charvel-sponsored clinic at the fabulous Wild West Guitars in Riverside, CA. Here are a couple of pics of Guthrie doing soundcheck before the clinic and performing 'Sevens' in front of a very enthusiastic and captivated audience. Wild West staff members were ecstatic about the great turnout for a Wed evening clinic but, hey, it's Guthrie, you know! Wink

Guthrie is at Cosmo Music in Toronto as I type this conducting a clinic and a special concert featuring a local band playing Guthrie's tunes from 'Erotic Cakes' and some jazz-fusion standards. He did the same thing years ago with this excellent band when I was there with him during a clinic tour and I'm sure the show will be even better this time round. Wish I was there.

Here's a pic of Guthrie rehearsing with the band yesterday. The band is called 5 After 4 with the members as following:

Vito Rezza - drums
Pat Kilbride - bass
Tony Zorzi - guitar
Matt Horner - keys

Here's a photo from the masterclass/clinic at The Music Zoo in NY.



Guthrie's performance at the Berklee Performance Center in Boston with the Jon Finn Group drew 600+ people yesterday and Guthrie concluded the clinic tour and his whole NAMM visit today with a clinic at Berklee. Tomorrow Guthrie heads back to UK to take a few days rest before starting rehearsals for Steven Wilson Band's UK/EU tour that starts in mid-March and ends in late-April.

It is going to be another very, very busy year for Guthrie. Speaking of what else is coming up this year, there's the G4 camp coming up in June which will feature Guthrie and the Aristocrats along with Joe Satriani and Animals As Leaders. The new issue of Guitar World features the three mega-virtuosos on its cover and the interview will feature plenty of details about this camp. Will this setting develop into a new G3 tour next year? Let's wait and see... Wink
