Eric Johnson is simply without reservation one of the single
finest singer / songwriter / guitar players to ever roam the earth, and truly a GOD of TONE to
be worshipped. However, Eric - and more particularly his management, are rabidly anti-fan in their
attitude towards taping and sharing of music. The lame excuse given is typically that they do not
want to see "substandard" performances available, which begs the question: if the artist and
management feel that the performance is substandard, do the folks who paid for tickets get a
refund? Obviously not. Therefore as much as we dig EJ's music, and will continue to purchase
his albums, instructional videos, etc., we must suggest that given a choice between going out to
pay to see this artist versus another, more fan friendly band on the same night, we will come down
on the side of supporting those bands who support their fans. We're sure that they are nice folks,
probably kind to puppies and old people, but just with slightly weird ideas about their music.
