I’m back!!!
🕑 Added 2024-02-10 22:59:55 +0000 UTCShiprocked 2024 is over and I’m back on dry land!!! Enjoyed a week at sea playing with Andy Wood Trio and the Stowaways (the once a year Shiprocked all star supergroup band)!
It was a LOT of work and prep going in (learning about 4 hours worth of material is always fun), but it paid off. It was a great time. Playing Crue, Van Halen, and Priest with Michael Starr from Steel Panther was DEFINITELY a highlight, and there were so many other amazing players aboard, too (Ron Bumblefoot Thal, Leo aka Frogleap Studios, and more than my sleepy brain can conjure up right now).
And yes, we were the boat that smacked the pier in Jamaica. It was wild hahaha
Glad to be back and ready to get back to work! Want a Shiprocked 2024 video? What would you want to see?

Just tell me you got to hang out with The Warning and I'll be extremely jealous.

That's one hell of a dive bomb to cause a maritime accident
Mike Plivelich
Sounds fun! How about another montage of performance clips from the shows - similar to the vid last year? Enjoyed that!
Mathew A Fascetti
Is that you playing the bass, ahhh, that's great man, enjoy.
Jim Kiley
DUUUUDE!!! You got to play with my favorite sisters The Warning? I think I could pick you out in a photo standing next to Pau (the drummer). Maybe that wasn't you, I can't tell. Glad you had a good time. I follow them very closely and received a number of updates, sounds like everybody had a blast.

Do you still feel like you are on a ship as you walk. Depends how rocky it was? Pardon the pun.
Phil Ashio
Wow! Imagine the hamsters available on a cruise! Bumblefoot is a deranged and sick bastard. I love him. Do they produce vids of these things? I'd love to see some/any of this! Cheers🍻

It's great to have you back, Uncle Ben. I can't wait to watch the video.

Given that I'm in England, I'd happily pay to see a recording of that very show. Nobody near me plays 80s hair metal stuff anymore 😞 Also, Steel Panther are amazing so I'm extremely jealous you played with Michael Starr
Anthony
Oh man I really wanna set what priest song you did 🤘
Shreddy McGuire
That's dope man. Glad to hear it was a blast
