I wonder if Robert Fripp would ever lower himself to making one of these. I can imagine how it'd go too. He'd be all stern and professorial.

Guitar Craft (GC) is a series of guitar and personal development classes, founded and often presented by Robert Fripp, who is best known for his work with King Crimson. The Introduction to Guitar Craft (2004) describes GC as three things:
* A way to develop a relationship with the guitar; * A way to develop a relationship with music; * A way to develop a relationship with oneself.
In the wider guitarist community, GC is best known for having introduced the New Standard Tuning, Fripp's term for the guitar tuning that came to him in 1983 (C, G, D, A , E, G low to high), and that he had personally switched over to by 1984. In GC itself the tuning is only one tool used towards a wider aim of re-directing the student's guitar playing from scratch.
New Guitar Craft students are not expected to have any guitar experience at all, and it has been suggested, by Fripp and students, that previous experience can sometimes work against the course objectives, because of the expectations it places on the course and on music in general.
Some course activities have little or nothing to do with the guitar, such as relaxation techniques, house and kitchen work, Tai Chi Chuan and the Alexander Technique.

I have to contribute to this thread...I will attempt to dupe the success of the Petrucci/Gambale/King reviews with my review of this:

And then will move on to some of the other stuff I have. This one is the one that will undoubtedly provide more fodder for mockery and derision, but I think I actually remember it being alright as to content.

I think my favorite thing from Aaron's Petrucci review:
He makes like Steve Vai at the end of Crossroads for a few minutes, then plays some shit slow for a while, finally showing us again how fast A REAL ASSHOLE LIKE HIM can play it!

Was it not on ILM? I just did a search for John Petrucci and this seemed like a good thread to toss that video in.
