Today, I discovered the giant selection of music instruction and concert DVDs available at Netflix.com. I haven't seen any at home yet, but I just added about a dozen to my queue including titles from Jimmy Bruno, Warren Haynes, Dream Theater, Frank Zappa, and Johnny Hiland. I'm quite excited about getting tons of new practice ideas.
