ROB ZOMBIE Guitarist JOHN 5: Clinic Tour Dates Announced

April 6, 2009

ROB ZOMBIE/ex-MARILYN MANSON guitarist John 5 will embark on a clinic tour in May. The clinics will be free and will feature John performing, answering questions and signing merchandise. In addition, the new John 5 Squire Telecaster will be available to purchase, along with John 5 merchandise.

The dates are as follows:

May 01 - Wild West Guitars - Riverside, California

May 13 - Auburn Guitar Shoppe - Auburn, Alabama
May 16 - Mom's Music - Louisville, Kentucky
May 18 - Sweetwater Sound - Fort Wayne, Indiana
May 19 - Sam Ash - Burbank, Illinois

John 5 recently released the IMV "Behind the Player" DVD in which he gives an intimate behind-the scenes look at his life as a professional musician, including rare photos and video footage. John 5 then gives in-depth lessons for how to play "Let it All Bleed Out" and "Lords of Salem" by ROB ZOMBIE on guitar and jams the tracks with ROB ZOMBIE drummer Tommy Clufetos.

John 5 issued his fourth solo album, "Requiem", on June 3, 2008 via 60 Cycle Hum. John 5 performs all instruments with the exception of the time-keeping by Zombie bandmate Tommy Clufetos (drums). The album was recorded in the middle of night that lent a cool vibe and only time John 5 had studio times. Most of the songs are 12-13 minutes long so John 5 decided to put in markers to divide them up so when songs change from track to track it seems to meld in to each other.

The Metal Nurse has uploaded an interview she conducted with John 5 at this year's NAMM (National Association Of Music Merchants) show, which was held January 15-18 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California. Watch the three-minute chat below.
