Joel H on That Metal Show

[Glynchfan1]

I hope those WS medallions he's got on everyone of his guitars are attached using that 3M command stuff. He's a great player and that's a great gig, but am I the only one that thinks he's on a month to month lease with that deal?? How much longer can Whitesnake really go on? Sorry, had to vent lol

 

[Metlupass2]

I wasn't that impressed.

 

[voodooel34]

Well, he's no Doug Aldrich. He's a great player no doubt, but he's got some big shoes to fill.

I was thinking the exact same thing

Meh, Aldrich is a great player but he isn't light years ahead of hoekstra. Hoekstra is a fine guitar player in his own right and has his own bag of tricks. He is also a melodic player. What everyone is really avoiding, is how shit Coverdale is now. That voice doesn't have a note left in it...

Hence the point the OP was making

1. As a professional, when you're signed on to a new team you go in head first, even if it's for a week.
2. Joel is just as good as Doug. They each do their own thing.
3. I thought he sounded great. I really dug that slap thing he was doing.

I thought Joel was one of the best guitarist yet on TMS. The Friedman sounded great too. I like when they play stuff that seems somewhat rehearsed and not just spontaneous wanking. I also believe he'll have no trouble cutting it in WS. Now as far as Coverdale, that's a different story.

The Friedman is borrowed from Rockinchippy (forum member). Pretty sure he's borrowed it for the new WS video also & might be using it on tour

Joel played and sounded great! The Rockinchippy Friedman sounded amazing!! as far as WS however long it lasts its a pretty good gig and he'll certainly land another gig when that drys up.

Really, He is in Whitesnake and can't buy his own amp?

 

[Kapo_Polenton]

Because Coverdale is already dried up so shouldn't be too long before he moves on. I can't get over how bad his voice is now ms how pointless playing in white snake seems to me now.

 

[srommes]

 

[RACKSYSTEMS]

He has 2 amps coming for the tour.

 

[Mklane]

This place should be called Whitesnake-Talk

 

[journeyman73]

i thought he was using the JJ's

 

[skoora]

I thought he played some pretty cool shit. Dug his versatlity.

 

[thiswaythatway]

Who got less of a voice at this point. Coverdale or DLR? I think it's damm close.

 

[nevusofota]

Joe is phenomenal player. He is absolutely going to kill it on the Whitesnake tour.

Seriously, who even cares what guitars he chooses to play or whether he buys/rents/borrows gear? All of that has zero to do with his playing and all to do with the business of being a pro musician.

My intention here was in no way to say anything negative about Joel's playing. I thought he did some of the coolest/most different type of stuff we've seen this season. And that guy has forgot more then I will ever know about playing. My reason for posting was to poke fun at the WS medallions and inlay on his guitars. It was a joke, please don't take anything I sY in here too seriously. Thanks!!
