It seem's George Lynch is trying summit techie.
He is starting a "Guitar Dojo" for online students.
Online video,TAB,theory etc. lessons, exclusive chat/email to George.
Says enrolling now $29.95 a month.
Wonder how good that will be? Have done online stuff before (not music) and worked really well (with busy time frame etc.). NOT my cup of cha but interesting.

I enrolled for 6 months. I will let you all know how it goes!

In the worst case, if it never gets off the ground, I figger I'll have some $$ stored up at the Mob Shop. :)

I think it's a great thing that he's doing, and can't wait to see how it's implemented!!

ps - Lynch Rules!!

Ben
am not surprised to hear this :)
I think it is VERY interesting.
I have done courses online and had regular internet chat with professors and email access etc. and for me it worked VERY well, in fact HATE the "normal" classroom after this (although horses for courses as it does req. ALOT of discipline).
I hope it works well and yes PLEASE do report back with your experiences.
Also, what happened to George? It was reported like a week ago he had collapsed!

lynch is awesome.

Don't like the way he's always doing stuff for money, but i obviously can't say that if I were in his position that I'd do anything differently...

:D

I think greg howe was or is doing something similar to this, its a good idea but I kinda got the feeling you don't get much for your cash. What with so many good free lessons on the internet these days.
I would be really interested in seeing how Lynch plays the silly fast part at the end of the solo to into the fire as i can't seem to work it out and all the tabs I've got are wrong.

I posted about this a while back and I stick to my comment - why doesn't he just start making NEW music instead of re-working (ruining) his old classics and releasing cr@p live footage.

I love Lynch but this does sound about as dodgy as can be. I doubt if it will ever happen as his site (which I've visited for years) is about the worst for updates I've seen.

He apparently collapsed from dehydration just after a gig last week but god knows if that's the real reason.

Uli Roth is doing a similar thing - http://www.sky-academy.com/

BTW has anybody seen his bloody horrible new ESP signature V - I doubt I'll every see him play that one in anything other than an advert.

For a guy with all that talent he sure knows how to waste time.

Yeah, me no likey at all.

Yup - That's the fugly mutha I'm on about.

It's in the same class as the ESP Mustaine AXXION (duh )

Ker-ching cash in time....

I would die if somebody gave me an Epiphone CAMO Zakk custom - it's horrible.

I just couldn't keep it but I wouldn't want to hurt their feelings.

Ah, but it'd look pretty sexy with some BKP custom camo covered pups (miracle men, of course)

Haha! I just saw the George Lynch action figure advertised on the website.
I'm gonna buy two and make them fight :twisted:

On the dojo, it seems quite an interesting idea but I don't know how much it's worth it, there's a lot of good free stuff on the net.
