Strange combination - worth looking into.

I had forgotten about her.
She was the one that was meant to be doing the tour with the King of Kiddie Fiddling before he checked out.Comment

What I like about her, (and this is independant of her nationality) is she
is a young, happening, trendy kinda chick, that young people might
actually take note of, and she is bringing back the solo !
(In 80's style too !)
Good looking and obviously is influenced by the same shit we
all were...
We need more young guitarists to solo in songs..
agreed ?
As for touring with the late kiddie diddler, how fucked is that for
her ? Imagine how much more of a boost she would have had,
if those concerts had happened.. Hope she still makes it, nice
to see a youngun with both hands on the fretboardBABY PANA 2 IS Coming !! All across the land, let the love and beer flow !

She's got a couple good things going for her...
1. Her association with MJ, however short it was....
2. She's a hot Aussie.... (I'm getting flashbacks.... Snap out of it, VA !!!)
Sorry....

Downside is that she will drink all your beer and then take a piss in your hearth thinking it's a BBQ.Comment

Her time with MJ was short but before that she already knew Vai when she was 15 when her band opened for him. At 18 she jammed Santana . She also played at the Crossroads festival. That's a pretty good resume already.Last edited by CSM; 01-27-2010, 01:50 PM."Now we gotta make the best of it, improvise, adapt to the environment, Darwin, shit happens, I Ching, whatever man, we gotta roll with it."

Same here until I watched MJ's This is It last night... Pretty good guitar player. She nailed Ed's solo in Beat It better than most..."If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”Comment

Her birthdate (Jan. '85) is pretty close to when I was there, but off by a bit...
I was there in '86 during the 75th anniversary of the Royal Aussie Navy... 40,000 squids from ships from 7 different countries...

My Dad is an ex Sailor, To this day he can out drink me, be up at the
crack of dawn and whistling while he cooks up a big breakfast,
whilst I lay in bed nursing a whopping hangover.
I remember as a kid his local get togethers at our house
with his Navy mates... Mum used to dread seeing them walk up
the driveway...
I can only imagine what 40,000 of you buggers must have been like !!!
I think they are still repairing parts of Sydney !BABY PANA 2 IS Coming !! All across the land, let the love and beer flow !

At least someone is trying....
Maybe this is a good thing.... I'm not so idealistic that I believe every song must have a solo but damned if I don't miss players that can do more that play drop D and fake their way through a song. The one thing I can never forgive grunge and nu metal for is making it uncool to actually know how to play you're fucking guitar. There are no REAL guitar hero's anymore. At least no new ones anyways. Sure there are those that were around before grunge but name one that has come around in the last 15 years or so that is widely recognized by general fans and peers as a guitar hero. Oh well, I digress.
So I heard about this new chick from a guy at work and checked her out. She's very good and she's cute. She's played with and for several names you'll recognize. Everyone from Santana, BB King, Vai etc. Clapton even invited her to play at Crossroads. I'm not gonna hunt through all the topics on this site to see if anyone has heard of her before and whatnot so if this is a dupe you can delete it. MJ hired her as his guitarist for his final tour before he died. Her name is Orianthi and Vai is her mentor so there's your DD connection. Anyway, here are a couple of her videos. Tell me what you think.
