Default Jimmy Bruno Guitar Institute - Opinions?

Alright, so I just found out about the Jimmy Bruno Guitar Institute (www.jimmybrunoguitarinstitute.com) and was wondering if any of you had any experience with it. For anyone who has, is it any good? I'm already a pretty well rounded player and I'm really just looking for something fun to do with a new approach to stuff so that would play a factor. I'm thinking that I will probably do it because $60 for 3 months it's not too much of a waste if I don't like that first 3 months. So, what do you guys think? What are your experiences with it?

EDIT: Also, what song is it at the intro of his videos? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqjM7...eature=related)

Don't recognize the song, I'm sure its one of this guy's own.

The sample lessons, though they're filled with some kind of arbitrary made up names for things that already have names, like "The Five Shapes" - well, which five shapes? "The Five Most Commonly Used Modes for Playing Many Jazz Tunes" would be more a more accurate way to look at it, but oh well.

As for doing video/CD/DVD/tape lessons or whatever,I've never tried his. So I don't know. IF you could take lessons from him in person, that would be a good idea. A good idea, though he may not be a very good teacher just because he has good material. You'll have to find these things out for yourself.
