AWESOME Jake….I cant wait to hear it Brother!!!!
It was great to see Jake on tms! Glad he’s rockin again,because he is after all the greatest guitar player on planet earth!!! Can’t wait for red dragon cartel! Hey Jake, if your ever in Chicago area stop over for a cocktail… my treat..
When will the album be released? I’ve been looking for it and can’t find. I’ve read that it will be released in early 2013. Was that a typo?
early next year
I’d like to put some money up front as support and as an investment to see Jake, Zakk and George Lynch perform together as a tour, and I’m sure a million other people would as well. Please contact me if you are one of the performers, let’s CrowdSource this next tour, or not. Instead of G3 I’d like to call this E3Guitar, after the Enormous Three entertainers that they are and their instruments. Patent pending bitches.
