New Dave Weiner cd "On Revolute" - win lots of gear!

[daveweiner]

Hey all. I thought some of you might be interested in this.., (If you don't know who I am, I've been playing in Vai's band for the last 11 years).

In celebration of the release of my new record "On Revolute", I'm giving away a bunch of great gear in the "Win Dave's Gear" giveaway. Prizes include an Xotic EP Booster, Digitech TL-2 Metal Distortion, Dimarzio Pickups (x4), Amplitube 3 (x3), Intellitouch Tuners (x3), Solid Cables (x3), Red Bear picks (x6), an Apple iPad and the grand prize, my last Ibanez LACS 7-string custom painted with the "On Revolute" artwork. Here's the guitar:

The giveaway is worldwide but only open to the first 3000 orders. I did this so that the odds of you winning stay very good. You're automatically entered in the giveaway when you order "On Revolute" directly from http://www.daveweiner.com.

I greatly appreciate people who support my work so this giveaway is my way of saying thanks. I also wanted to give you as much for your money as possible, so the record is $15 US / $20 Int'l and includes free shipping, a custom "On Revolute" guitar pick and is signed personally to you from me. So for less than the cost of a couple of drinks at most bars, you get 76 minutes of music and have the chance to win a lot of great gear.

Feel free to post any questions or comments. I'll check back frequently to respond.

Thx guys.
Dave

Good to have you along on the site Dave.

From what I have heard the new Album looks like being a cracker. So I wish you every success with it. I'll be sure to head over and grab a copy.

My mate Stew bought mine for me. I'm gonna have to buy the backing tracks though so I still have a shot at the giveaway :D

[Stew]

happy to help you plug the CD Dave. We have been big fans of your Riff Of The Week videos and wish you all teh best with the album....hope you even eventually venture back over to Scotland as part of a Dave Weiner tour instead of a Vai tour :smile:

[daveweiner]

Thx very much guys. Happy to be here and i appreciate the support greatly!

Welcome Dave. Did you play with Steve at The Astoria gig that was recorded for DVD? I was there that night and I've NEVER seen the place so packed. Eric Sardinas supported if I remember rightly. Great gig but what a squeeze!

All the best with the album. I've got a FREE one available somewhere! I'll check your stuff out. :thumb:

Hey guys..

Sorry for the lack of updates, been swamped and sick!

We're at 1151. Just 99 units til the 6 Red Bear Picks giveaway! http://bit.ly/cSe2Bt

FYI: Winners will be picked during the live drawing on UStream as specified when it's time to do one, and then notified by email.

Thx for the update Dave. My copy arrived at the weekend and I am mightily impressed. Having not really previewed the stuff before I ordered it I was extremely surprised as it's not quite what I was expecting, and in a good way too. I had in my mind a full on shred fest of guitars but was confronted by something a whole lot more complex and finely crafted. All of the tracks are very good indeed. I really like the fact that you have used a fair amount of acoustics on the album, a much underused resource in the guitar world these days, and it's made for an album with a lot more light, shade and dynamics. The title track is a fine example of this and is a superb work.

Thanks for the prompt delivery. Looking forward to many more hours of listening, and of course trying to steal some of those great licks. :-)

I agree with the Zappster! Arrived last week and enjoying the diversity of it mostly. 'The Calm' is a great opening gambit and it just gets better. My fave tracks are 'Ignition' and 'On Revolute' which is a hell of a listen. Very progressive and reminded me of Transatlantic in places (that's a good thing BTW!)

Now send me the guitar and be done with it!!! :)

[Highway Star]

Dave Matey, not only are you one heck of a guitarist but you are a gent as well.

Thankyou for a great album (and a nice personal touch with the signature).
