@pjdambra: dude ya this guy is unreal ive seen him live a few times, also just saw govt mule for the 10th or so time, warren hyanes i think is my all time favorite guitar players now, but there is so many, Mule puts on 1 hell of a show check them out if you get the chance
Gary Hoey is the best guitar player no one has ever heard of. It is a shame. He is so versatile. His music does not all sound the same. I love his heavy stuff like, The Deep, Pipe, Animal Instinct. He is a must see Live.
I see him every time he comes to town. Always an amazing show and always a meet and greet afterward. Really cool bunch of guys. Matt even remembers us by name. A must see.
he was at daddys junkey music hes a really nice guy i met him we talked for a lil while he gave me a pick and his autogrpahs probley of of the best moments of my life
i think hes really good but he is too into using stevie ray vaughan licks and his tone isnt exactly miles away from stevie's either. i know there are influences on people but im my opinion there are too many players that are overly influenced by stevie. but he has some pretty awesome licks and playing in here and i liked that tapping thing he did was cool and weird
This guy was cranking out the tunes when SRV was inactive. Check out his My Space site and listen to Shedding my Skin. I think you'll like it. Also, this is tame for Gary Hoey, he is one of the best and fastest guitarist alive. His instrumentals or awesome and unmatched. Peace...
You're welcome. I have been a dick to some in this forum, but finally realized there is simply too much bullshit going and, after all, I visit this for the music, vids, and sharing with others, not to insult or antagonize, well, if possible eh eheheheh...
Gary is one of the best all around guitar players I personally have ever heard. Saw him live at the Iron Horse Music Hall in Northampton, MA. His band puts on a hell of a show, and he is such a nice guy too. So chill and laid back. Can't wait to see his band again and this DVD. ROCK ON GARY!!
I'm 59 now, and in my time I've seen what I thought to be the best of all the great guitar players. Hendricks, Clapton, Beck and on and on, until last night.. Last night I seen Hoey for the 1st time live, and I can now say Gary is the Greatest Guitar Player ever seen.. 7/12/08 Twin River, Rhode Island.. Incredible free show and meet and greet after the show... What a genuinely nice guy to go along with his unbelievable skills. If you never seen him play it's a must see show.. Awesome Band too.
Gary is so underrated. I have to wonder though when you say he's the best? I'm honestly not trying to be negative but you put him above some pretty good company.
well, I'm nearly as old as you (and, of course, also saw many great guitar players). But, I'm sure: There is NO SUCH THING AS THE GREATEST BEST GUITAR PLAYER!
@tighttritenight Yeah tighttritenight, It's nice to see a comment survive more than 3 years now.. Gary is great but it's unfair to him and everybody else to rate anyone the Greatest.. I coincidentally just seen Gary again last night at his annual "Ho Ho Hoey" show.. He was as good as ever. Is he the Greatest? I don't know, but is he my personal favorite, yes I do know that.. You really need to see Gary perform live and I'm sure you'll raise your rating higher than an OK..
@pjdambra yea i went to that show too. It was awazing Gary Hoey is in my top 5 just his style and how smooth his transitions are. The most underrated guitarist out there hands down!!!!
Seen and met him here last 3 times up here in the Boston area-He is such a great guy and an unreal player live. Last time he played up here he gave me his pick after he melted it playing hocus pocus . It literally melted.
Like a fine wine Gary Hoey keeps getting better with age. His recent disk "American Made" is great start to finish. It's a mystery why he's not more popular. I wish I lived closer to Boston or L.A. so I could see him live more often. Can't wait to see this DVD.
1 person can't handle the truth!!!!
