Hi Joe! My 15 year old son and I saw you at the warner theater in DC last year with G3, First off.... I sat him in row one directly in front of you.. I was 7 back.. Your incredible. My son was completely jazzed! Thanks for a great show. We didn't bring a camera that night (too bad) but would love to a pic autographed of you made out to JJ and Mike if possible. that would be so cool.
I sang in a Microsoft gig at the Tabernacle 2 weeks before you gigged there... I was in the spot light with my son when I told him that you were playing there and then we saw you the next month in DC..
You'll have to give out the secret of how you stay young.
Take care and have fun!
JJ

Hey I am coming to the show in Atlanta from Alabama and I was wondering if there was any way that I could get backstage passess. I have been a fan since surfing and I would love to meet Joe and the other bandmembers. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

STU NOT BOO its easy for you to say you have your tickets allready...think about it ,if tickets to your cities show went onsale a day early and nobody could tell you how to get in on the presale you wouldnt be so smug. I apologized for my mistake about the listening party, but it does cut out due to high traffic...I will not kiss butt and brown-nose for after show passes from a webmaster and not tell him whats wrong with his page...(like some people), so get over it. when i sent pics it was at the webmasters request i didnt do anything but send some great pics that never hit the page , so it wasnt how i asked. My main concern is getting tickets and this page has the sale date as sometime this weekend that is wrong it is tommorrow for the presale and fri for gen public sale...so it is possible for an Atlanta fan reading just the news on this page to miss out completely on tickets due to incorrect/incomplete information...if thats the way you like your website than you can berate me all u want, morons

Joe, thank you for such a beautiful album, once again you've done it!
I tell ya what. This one is definitely different, and it's good.
You know what though? I miss your tone from "CP."
Seems that was the last CD you made before adding other effects to your sound other than wah, but still very good.
Thanks, and hope to see you in FL in august!!!!!

Went to a game at Pac. Bell Park today that went 12 innings. I didn't get out of the parking lot until just after 5:00 p.m. - when apparently the ENTIRE CITY of San Francisco gets off work! Aaarrrggghhhh! It took 1 1/2 hours to get from the park, through the city, and to the north end of the Golden Gate bridge! Luckily, I had SBM in the car - cranked it up to drown out all of the idiots honking at each other (as if that helps the traffic situation, lol) blocking intersections. Great stress reliever. Thanks Joe! Amazing stuff! ............ Speaking of the game - Barry Bonds was on 1st. base and J. T. Snow was on 2nd. base when they both broke for home on a hit. Before Snow even rounded 3rd. base Barry was already on his heels, haha! White guys are so slow (and I'm one of them, lol)! ......... An edit will be committed; almost forgot - They both slid into home simultaneously! It was pretty cool to see even though the catcher tagged out Barry (He would have been safe if he hadn't had to slow down for J. T.). I'm sure this play was on Sports Center tonight but I didn't watch so actually, I'm not sure.

Love the new album. I've been streaming it for the past 24 hours here at work. I think the other techs are getting hooked. Who knows. I'm REALLY excited about the tour. I love Kings X, and think they will be a tremendous opening act for the co-headliners (Joe & DT). I just got the Live in SF DVD. UNBELIEVABLE! Everyone who I've showed it to all of a sudden likes Joe Satriani. Go figure! I'm not sure which is my favorite song on the new CD yet, but it's between Oriental Melody, Seven String, and Hill Boogie. Actually, the whole album's great, as is every album and song. I'm not sure if there's a JS song that I don't like. Jon, the site is FANTASTIC! Joe, we'll see you in Orlando on August 23rd at the HOB. L8R.

Hi Austin ,
I don't know if you received my message on your personal e-mail address so I use this board to thank you for your explanation . I would never have understood without your help as we're not used to do this way in France .

Mud Grunt - I actually got lucky... The CD had a $18.99 sticker price, but it was on sale for $13.99. That's about what it sold on amazon.com, without shipping...right? Still...I'd rather pay a little extra and know that I wouldn't have to worry about anything. So I'll go with amazon.com next time.
PSUKCAT13 - SBM is at the top of my list of favorite Satriani albums. And know what? I honestly think it'll stay there...yes, it's THAT good. :-)
Lowend - List yourself as attending your show on the tour page and you might win backstage passes.
wiser1 - I've had to buy tickets without presales before. I know exactly what it's like. It stinks sometimes, but hey, at least you'll be able to go to the show. As far as accusing me of kissing butt and brown-nosing to get backstage passes, that's just ridiculous. I have the same odds as anyone else that uses the backstage pass contest. And go read some of my other posts...I've pointed out quite a few things that should be changed on the site. There is a difference between telling someone to "prepare to be flamed" and using constructive criticism to point out flaws. Constructive criticism is not brown-nosing by any means.

It is Stu not Boo - Heh. Sounds a lot like my experience looking for a copy of SBM yesterday. I went to Tower first, but saw the $19 price tag. Screw that, I'm happy to give Joe the extra money, but I knew it would just go towards the Jaguar payment for some Tower exec. Figured I could do much better at Best Buy. 2 Best Buys and a ton of hassles later, not another SBM in sight! Tried a few random Wal-Marts and Targets (figured they would come up empty) and finally went back to Tower about 2 hours later. The guy rang it up and it was actually on sale for $12! I was happy about the price, but jeez they could have saved me a lot of trouble by actually advertising it! (strange concept)
Anyway, I've been playing it nonstop since then and loving it more and more. Finally getting a chance to check out the online listening party now and hear Joe's comments on the songs. The album as a whole didn't grab me or blow me away like some of the past releases have. After the first listen I would have put it in my least 3 favorite Joe albums - meaning awesome but not up to par for Joe. But it's one of those that grows on you, and I'm really getting into it now. Noticing a lot of great little details that you can't get in the first couple of listens - I have a feeling this may become one of my favorites in the coming weeks! It's quickly moving up the rankings...
Great job Joe, as always, and thanks for the music!

Sorry for making a lot of posts tonight, but here's the first part of my SBM review...
Oriental Melody - This song is very different for Joe. After listening to it once I thought it was just ok... But I like it more and more each time I hear it. My favorite part is from 1:14-1:38.
Kinda a crummy "review", but hey. ;-) Some of the ones for the other songs are better. Does anyone else have any comments or favorite moments in this song?
Belly Dancer will follow tomorrow night.
...Austin...

Satch3d - Stop just spinning it and go put the thing in your CD player - you'll like it even more that way, trust me!!!!! lol
Stu Not Boo - I reckon Oriental Melody is pretty good. As soon as I put it in my CD player and heard that intro I was like "hmmm..." I just love the drum groove and the bit that I suppose could be called the chorus. The only problems I have with that one are I don't really like the melody guitar sound at the beginning; that really soaked in delay sound kinda does my head in. And the solo sounds a bit, dare I say it, sloppy in places. But I think that's also down to the tone - it's quite muddy. I didn't have anywhere near the problems you had in tracking the album down though. I just walked into my local MVC, checked the "new releases" shelf, and there it was...
Anybody else having problems uploading stuff to their IUMA lately?
L8rs, Neil.

Bit disappointed with the European tour dates!
I am in Brussels and the last time out I drove a couple of hours to the gig in Luxembourg, this tour nothing comes very close (like last G3 too....). Also, there are not many UK options so I won't see you there either (during a trip home - that is where I am from). Even Mr. Vai took the trouble to play Brussels recently.
Yes, yes - I know, you can't make it to everywhere....
All the best, yours slightly disgruntled.

I think Joe should do some instore signings as well when he comes over to the UK too! Maybe if enough of us ask for it....well, you never know. I've just finished my A-Levels and am 'graduating' secondary (thats high school to you Americans). I can't wait to see you play in London, it's going to be the perfect way to end my school days! Can I have a request - for me and my friends who have all finished school - you have GOT to play Mindstorm live! See you soon!

Hey Jon- I just came up with another good idea for the new site. On the T2J forum, maybe we could have the ability, within our personal profile, to block the messages of certain T2Jers whose obnoxious ramblings we'd rather not read. Just a thought... *nudge nudge* *wink wink*

hey fellow satch fans, an update on my SBM situation...
I rode my bike to Best Buy yesterday morning (after the guy said it'll be there in another shipment) and it wasn't there. I felt like beating the guy up. I was so PO'd.
When I got home I called the Orange Park Mall (to be directed to Sam Goody. I said, "Do you guys have the new Joe Satriani CD?" She said, "Who?" (only the fiftieth time I'd got that.) "Oh yeah, we have it. we got it yesterday." Suddenly, Handel's Hallelujah chorus rose in my head. HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! and so on.
So anyway, I told my mom and after my orthodontist appointment. (OUCH!) I will get my SBM FINALLY!
Thanks for the comfort Joe,
Daniel
