Guitar superstar Joe Satriani is pleased to announce that the 2018 incarnation of his massively popular G3 tour will stop at the State Theare in Minneapolis on Saturday, February 24th. Satriani will be joined on the highly anticipated tour by fellow six-string legends JOHN PETRUCCI and PHIL COLLEN.
“G3 tours are always very exciting, challenging and a lot of fun for me,” says Satriani. “I love any chance I get to stand on stage and play for my fans, but I especially love the crazy jolt I get when I can perform alongside other guitarists I admire. It ups my game, it ups their game, and I know our audiences always get a real kick out of the whole experience.”
John Petrucci has a long history with G3 – the Dream Theater founder and guitar virtuoso made his maiden voyage on the tour in 2001, and the 2018 trek will mark his seventh appearance on the bill. “I always look forward to having John on any G3 tour I do,” says Satriani. “He continues to be one of the most incredible and inspiring guitarists I’ve ever played with, and he never fails to do things on stage that I find utterly jaw dropping. I can only imagine what new surprises he’s got planned for this tour.”
“What’s really special is how G3 has endured and grown over the years,” he continues. “Fans keep coming back because they get an extraordinary night of incredible music that’s also a lot of fun, and we love bringing it to them because, well, we’re having fun, too. I know John Petrucci and I have a shared feeling of, ‘How can we make this bigger and better?’ And having Phil Collen aboard will bring an exciting new aspect to it all. I can’t wait to see all my fans out there again. Each night is going to be fantastic.”
