NEVERMORE guitarist Jeff Loomis recently wrapped up a European clinic for Schecter Guitars. Footage from his March 29th clinic in Vercelli, Italy is available below.

Loomis will make an appearance at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt, Germany on Friday, April 8th and Saturday, April 9th. He'll be doing signing sessions at 1 PM (CET) and 4 PM (CET) at the Schecter booth.

Loomis was in Greece this weekend (Thessaloniki on March 26th and Athens on the 27th) conducting a pair of guitar clinics. Elina Papadoyani from Metal-Temple.com has filed this report from the Athens event:

"Jeff made his entrance with the first song ('Shouting Fire At A Funeral') of his solo album Zero Order Phase. He played some Nevermore material and also some from his personal debut. 'Enemies of Reality', 'The Obsidian Conspiracy', 'Your Poison Throne', 'Miles Of Machines' were some of them.

He was in a great mood and happily answered a lot of questions and shared guitar info. He was specifically asked from the audience to talk about his solos, and he did in a really nice and polite way. Diminished fifths, minors, picking and alternate picking, string gauges, warm-up exercises and colossal arpeggios…everything was on the menu.

Towards the end of this beautiful evening, Jeff mentioned Nevermore's contract with Century Media Records and the fact that it's about to end, leaving them with only one more album to release with the label. The band will go full force for this upcoming release and will put their best effort and he didn't exclude the idea of another concept album, while talked a little bit a bout his cooperation with Nevermore singer Warrel Dane."
