Welcome back once again to the UG exclusive video-show, In The Element, where we take you behind-the-scenes with your favorite guitarists in a light never seen before through the eyes of your host, UG Multi-Media-Guitar-Mad-Man Chris Buono and the unassailable, yet poised Doug Osborn.

Here in Part 3 we corner lead guitarist Jon Donais in the lounge for a hilarious sit-down where Donais unleashes his own verbal fury about myriad subjects such as: the state of music, selling records, and the lack of rock-star-privy breast flashings in this day and age.

We also witness more intensified stupidity in the Guitar Magazine blooper category where you see the Shadows Fall boys and Chris, well, completely lose it. Not to mention, proper host etiquette, some shred-er-rific licks, and a surprise addition of indole, skatole, and hydrogen sulfide emissions courtesy of your host.

Be sure to check out the lesson/interview Chris did with Bachand and Donais in the December 2007 issue of Guitar Player magazine, which is available now! Hey, while you're at it, go get a copy of SF’s latest opus, Threads Of Life, on Atlantic records!

    It's an American mag, but it should be out there. It's actually one of the first guitar mags to hit the scene in the mid 60's. You can go to http://www.guitarplayer.com/ for more info and get to the link for on-line footage for that article as well as other amazing video content. Check it out~

    Right?! The music throughout the series is from a song called "Redemption" from their current CD, Threads of Life.
