Gruskada... Bill Bruford is one of the most dynamic drummers in my opinion. Love King Crimson. I saw them in Poenix around '81, '82. Andrian Belew played in the dark. I'd love to see him and Joe together.

Quitarboy...see you at the Cleveland show.

I just moved my painting supplies into a big old barn, its got a cathedral ceiling and lots of north light. I'm just so excited.

Ciao, ciao...Linda

Local Dude - Davestock happened last night, and it was awesome. I got such a buzz out of the fact that people turned up to something I helped to organise. We raised just under £300 too! All the bands played really well, particularly my band - we were on fire, man!!!!! You missed a great show, but I'm looking into the possibility of getting the video of our set, or maybe just the bit where I play "For The Love Of God", on the internet. Also, I got my Davestock t-shirt so I'll probably be wearing that to the Shepherds Bush show instead of a Dream Theater t-shirt, so look out for the guy with the blow-up guitar and the Davestock t-shirt... lol

L8rs, Neil.

knightsaber whats the problem with it?..i know its kinda hard to play but i wasn't the one who worked it out!...

HEy Satch LAnd. Happy 4th of July. hwo is everbody doing? Things are goign pretty good here. Ihaven't gotten anyrequests for any of my mp3's out of 30 something thousand people. That's not really kool, but I only have 100 mhz processor so I guess that's ok. well IF anyone would like any free samples of my full length Mp3's of some of my demos, e-mail me at THE1TONY@aol.com. I would really like for you guys to check it out and tell me what you think. especially you Joe.

Well, what can I say about the new album? I think it's cool that the title is taken from "third stone from the sun" on Jimi's first album "Are you experienced?"......"Strange, beautiful, grass of green.. and your majestic silver seas....your mysterious mountains I wish to see closely..may I land my kinky machine?"

Since obtaining my copy on 25th June from the Southampon branch of HMV i have played it quite a lot. Not only does my darling wife Julia and I love it to bits BUT my teenage daughter Emily has taped it to take with her on her school trip to Spain. Far out-when I was her age I HATED the music my dad listened to!

Great that there is a Shadows track "sleepwalk" (perhaps "Atlantis" for the next album-hwhen you're ready), but above all , thanks Joe for another complex, melodic, varied and listenable album. "You saved my life" is just SO lovely, but there are so many "STRANGE BEAUTIFUL" guitar moments-well just thanks for doing it again, Joe. Look after that family of yours, and LIVE LONG AND PROSPER.

See ya at Shepherd's Bush Empire.

happy 4th joe damn im full yay for bbq folks

if i get asked to play the national anthem again im gonna scream lolol

Guskada...corection, its Fripp, been awhile. Yeah, good line-up.

Bonglous...you're a cool dad.

Ciao, Linda

jofdm - If you win aftershow passes, you pick them up at the venue box office (will call) before the show. Your name should be in your profile here on the site, and the webmaster gives that name to the venue. You have to show your ID to the venue staff and then they give you the passes.

Prog X - Army green M&Ms? I like it...LOL.

Andmjones - "An evening with Joe..." means that you get 2 sets of Joe Satriani music. No opening bands, just 2 1/2 hours or so of JS songs.

JS Clone 1 - I can't hear the voice. I'll listen with headphones later though, hehehe...

hfob - I understood all of your abbreviations there except for one. What is ATD?

Austin - Yeah I was listening pretty loud on big speakers with good freq. range.

neil morgan - sounds sweet, I do wish I could have been there, but that video sounds great. Maybe when we meet up for some jamming you can show me your brilliance for real.

I'm seriously out of practice at the moment due to my amp breaking, and me automatically practising more on the piano, and composing on sibelius to make up. I think I better go practice now.

Loowho- "I just moved my painting supplies into a big old barn, its got a cathedral ceiling and lots of north light. I'm just so excited. "

You paint too? What kind of painting? I recently got into the romantic period of art, you know witches, fairies, knights and such. I paint with brushes on canvas though I am learning airbrushing too.

Still can't find any help on how to paint on this guitar body that I bought.

Local Person.... Rite Of Spring is the only track suitable for the mosh pit that I've ever heard that has no guitars in it... lol
