I just want to say that I'm really jazzed up for Sat. show in Cleveland. Getting warmed up right now with The "Real Live" CD. Some Strange Universe. My favorite album is "Tales of the Unexpected" This will be my 5th time to see Frank live and every time it is amazing. In my opinion he's one of if not the best guitarist on the face of the Earth. Thank you and please keep it coming!
Ed.

Old fan from late 70's ....saw Frank in Erie, Pa in 1978 ...... ran across his DVD taping / concert in Cleveland this Saturday in the newspaper "upcomming concerts" and couldn't believe he is still Jamming and playing so close to me. I just had to go. Have a group of five of us traveling and can't wait.
I still have my old concert stub from 1978 ... maybe I'll bring it and see if Frank will sign it. Going to be a great show !!!

I was at the Toronto show on dec. 05 2010, I'm still floating. What an amazing performance, this is going to be a killer DVD, I will be first in line to buy it!
A massive wave of gorgeous cranked raw guitar tone, Frank was in a zone the whole time, only opening his eyes in between songs. This felt like a religious experience & I will never be the same.

I first saw Frank in th 70's
My third concert ever
It was the Capital Center in Maryland
He was the warm up for Nazareth
The place was packed 20,000
After Frank finished, half the crowd left LOL
I would have left also but too young to drive and had to wait
for dad to pick me up

I will be there both nights in Cleveland for the DVD shoot
This will be the tenth time I have seen Frank

PS the favorite album should have more than one choice
So I picked the first one I bought
I have All

I've been a fan since 1976 or 1977 when I got Mahogany Rush IV on 8 track. Unfortunately I never had the chance to see you live. The energy you play with is amazing. There are lots of great guitar players, but the energy and emotion in your playing puts you in an elite class of musicians. I listen to Double Live about once a month. keep on playing. I'm still listening.

The man was on fire tonight at The Sound Academy in Toronto. Hadn't seen Frank since 1988, it was a treat. Played a 2 1/2 hour set.
Been into Mahogany Rush since the late 70s, got all his albums.
Thanks for a great show!

Along with my son,was more than pleased to attend your nirvanic concert last night here at the Corona Theatre in Montreal.

I have finally been able to appreciate your mastery of yhr guitar and thank you for sharing with the world your gift of music. As a young teenager myself(co-incidentally born same year as yourself) raised in East end Montreal's Longue Pointe area,you were an inspiration for my bandmates myself (a former keyboard player). Our guitar player even once said to me"I wanna play guitar just like Frank Marino. Having discoverd you(must say I am an unconditional fan of your All Along the Watchtower),I was impressed by the more unique concepts which were displayed during thr concert .Particuarly enjoyed the Soldier hometown hero selection as well as your very meaningful and powerful critique of the insanity and uselesness of war and,not unlike the great John Lennon,how one day could we all live in peace.

My son was there with me and was cheering you genius at least as loud , if not louder than myself. Enjoyed the fine mastery and genius of your special sound effects and realized where one of his favorites, Joe Satriani got some if not all of his inspiration.

Should I never see an other live show again, I will have seen my childhood idol live and in fine form. May you posess the health to keep this beautiful music alive for many more years to come.

I shall ask you a few questions about your life outside music (nothing too personal) and thank you for your response to probably frequentl asked questions. May your destiny continue to be positive and happy.Many thanks from a greatful and unfortunately not very knowledgeable fan.I'll be diligent and will read un on eveything MAhogany Rush related.

I will be going out and getting alot more of your music. Thank you for your great rock and roll , to me its the best. Your friend Bill.

Frank,
It is time to thank the greats of music.You're on that list.I won't say you were underrated but maybe under appreciated.All of my buddies loved you way back when.We wore out your records.Luckily we have you on CD.Sadly,I never got to see you guys in concert.But your stuff from the 70's still sounds so great after all these years.At least I still have that

Thanks
Mark

I am doing this because we were talking about you the other day.You and Jimi Hendrix and Robin Trower.Pretty good company eh?

Frank I've got a 17 year old son and I was trying to tell him and his pals how good you guys were....the response was the usual 'yeah ok old timer' joke. I played them your video of Johnny B Goode on youtube. Their jaws hit the floor - they thought it was awesome. You got any UK dates lined up? Let me know..... they keep pestering me. There's a whole new generation over here Frank - come and get 'em.
