Joe Bonamassa: Pickleball & Guitars

The New York Times claims that “Pickleball Noise Is Driving Everyone Nuts,” and that the noise is so maddening that many prospective home buyers are Googling “pickleball courts” to make sure their future homes are a safe distance from the racket. Really, no really! While you might not know the rules, courts are popping up around the country making its popularity undeniable, growing by 40% in just the last 2 years. To get to the bottom of the noise hullabaloo, Jason and Peter reached out to the owner of a professional pickleball team...but not just any owner. They spoke with Joe Bonamassa…the blues guitar virtuoso and prodigy, who started his career at age twelve opening for B.B King…and has had eleven solo albums that reached No. 1 on the Billboard Blues chart. IN THIS EPISODE: The REAL story of how pickleball got its name…maybe? Why did a revered blues guitarist buy a pickleball team? What is Noise-Con? The 2 professional pickleball associations are feuding! Joe’s undiagnosed ADHD led to his passion for playing. Joe owns over 1,100 guitars some of them worth more than your house. How at age 12, Joe ended up opening for B.B. King. The difference between a $200 and a $200,000 guitar. How he found the Holy Grail of guitars in an Italian restaurant.
