Hi! I'm Peter Hodgson. I write for Gibson.com, Australian Guitar, Australian Musician, Mixdown Magazine (including my instructional column, 'Unleash Your Inner Rock God,' which has been running since 2007), Blunt, Beat (including their weekly hard rock/metal column Crunch) and The Brag. And I'm Assistant Social Coordinator with Seymour Duncan.
I've been playing guitar since I was 8 years old, and I've been writing for magazines since I was 18. I've also worked as a guitar teacher (up to 50 students a week), a setup tech, a newspaper editor, and I've also dabbled in radio a little bit. I live in Melbourne, Australia, and my hobbies include drinking way too much coffee, and eating way too much Mexican food.
You can check out my guitar playing at Bandcamp or on YouTube, and feel free to email me at iheartguitarblog@gmail.com
Sorry, but that is a the very first DVD of Satch that I regret to have bought. It is sound-wise awesome as usual, but the visual part is just crap. One could have titled the DVD 'all video effects in Paris" because the camera is always moving, you see various visual effects every 5 secs … it's almost like a bad LSD trip. :-)
Bottom line: Interesting approach but way too excessively done. As a 5-minute video clip on MTV it would have been a great deal. But this DVD is just not what a Satch fan expects from a live recording.
Aww really? I hate visual effects applied to concert films. The only hyper-artistic presentation of a gig film that I really enjoyed was the Placebo one.
