Orianthi response to playing with Taylor Swift ":) that would b cool! I'm a fan she is great !"

Hope I'm not breaking a confidence. On July 14, 2012, blogged that Taylor Swift should have Orianthi on her upcoming tour as Swift's guitarist. Opening act wouldn't be bad either, but Swift has had lame opening acts.

Orianthi sent this direct message on Twitter today, ":) that would b cool! I'm a fan she is great "

Arguably Orianthi is currently the greatest living guitarist. Almost a year on the road with Alice Cooper has refined her playing.

So let's look at the similarities. Both are blond, both are in their 20s, one 27, the other 22, neither should be dating 18-year old boys. Both have an accent. One from "down south" and the other from "down under." Both have "signature" brand guitars.

Start a movement to have Swift add Orianthi as her guitarist!

Urgent message to Taylor Swift @taylorswift13 RE: 2012/2013 tour Orianthi @orianthi

Orianthi: Overnight sensation Three years in the making 21st Century Eddie Van Halen?

She's an overnight sensation being on American Idol last night. According to You peaked at #17 on Billboard's Hot 100, this week #18. Ryan Seabiscuit calls her one of rocks newest pioneers.

Orianthi started earlier than 2007. I became familiar because of the Bratz soundtracks (one of the best and the movie had Malese Jow and fellow Sonoran desert inhabitant Chelsea Staub). The same year as Bratz, she had a CD Violet Journey that is probably as rare as Jonas Brothers' It's About Time.

Thought the hot woman in We Are The World 25 was Colbie Calliat. Now need to go back and see if it was Orianthi. Gotta love a woman who has a custom made 24-fret Paul Reed Smith guitar and names it (Pepper - same as my first dog)!
