What happens when one of rock’s most inventive guitarists finds inspiration in 18th-century etiquette? Paul Gilbert’s new album WROC turns George Washington’s “Rules Of Civility” into electrifying rock anthems — blending humor, history, and blazing guitar work. With grooves that smile and melodies that soar, Gilbert transforms old-world manners into modern musical fire. It’s virtuosic, witty, and unmistakably Paul Gilbert.

Hundreds of years ago, everyone must have been walking around kicking the earth. They kicked the earth so much, that a rule had to be invented to put a stop to it! The rule to "Play not the peacock" is more difficult to follow. I know this, as I can't resist playing guitar solos while wearing a tricorn hat.
