Hi Joe,
Love your music, I'm a big fan!! I have tickets to the August 28th show w/Dream Theater at the Rosemont Theater. I'm sure we'll have a great time. However, I do have a question for you: Aside from being a guitarist myself, I also build guitar amplifiers (all tube and hand wired point to point, of course ).
Would you be interested in trying one of my amps ?? It's yours to keep if you like it. If your interested in contacting
me, you may do so through my email: ebarcham1@attbi.com
Thanks,
Ed B.

Joe,
I want to thank you and your total crew for the fantastic evening i had in the Heineken Music Hall. It was a fantastic performance. I invited my father in law because he is a Gitar and Bass teacher. He had the evening of his life. Thank you for that.
When are you visiting Holland again??? Than i invite you for a real Dutch Molucca Diner and a jam session with my Father in law and his brothers who play for over thirty years Gitar, Banjo and Bass :) Maybe you can teach or advice them something of playing the electric Gitar
Thank you and Greatings,
Jeroen Koenraad

Joe, glad the tour went well. Caught the second half of the webcast, sounded great as usual. New Last Jam really sounded amazing. Please keep Crushing Day and all the SBM songs in the setlist for America, and I'll be seeing you in Boston. It sucks that we don't get a full show though!!
PS - Mind Storm has been a great song for me recently as I have been having quite the Mind Storm myself!!! Oh, and SBM is extremely addictive, I seriously can't stop listening to it. I take it out of my player, then within a few days it's back in. You should put a surgeon general's warning on it or something.

Joe:
GREAT new music! I've been a guitar fan for 30 years, and a player for 27 years and this is the best guitar album I've heard since Blow by Blow. I'm so psyched to hear that there's still music coming out that's this good. Looking forward to the Aug. 10th gig at the Greek Theatre. Hope it's as awesome as the Wiltern gig in April of '01.
Congrats on the new album and all your success. You deserve it!
Steve

Thanks everyone for your condolences and blessings. The funeral is going to be on Friday. I have decided to play a slightly shortened version of Chopin's Nocturne in E Flat Major. When my family came over to my place last week after my grandma collapsed, I played that for my grandpa, and although he doesn't have much of a short term memory, he knows his Chopin, and all I could hear was him singing along with what I'm playing. The singing wasn't all that great though, lol, but not too shabby for someone who's 87 years old.

xcrystal planetx: Yes, I am not all knowing. I was trying to give only what I know from experience, for me. Others have succsesfully used custom sets of strings/springs, just as 'Clarky' has reminded me.
Good! My hands are just too strong now for (Me) to play that type of guage. I started on a 008 set when I was younger and still building tensil strenght in my left hand. Please feel free to use what you like for whatever reasons you feel to use.
Creativity is everything. I'm 44 this year August. I still think of my self as a "student" of the guitar, even though I teach privately disabled guitar student(s). Sometimes if the rules don't apply, cheat! If it works, all the better.
There is no wrong way to play. Just inapproperate. Best of to all in satch land. Joe: Great songs!
Wonderful to hear you are having so much enjoyment playing this tour! Btw Clarky: Thanks. i love the disscusion! It's good to hear from alot of experience from alot of satch-ites. Be cool. KTF Randell

Ishavedmyhead - Both JS and DT will be playing 90 minute sets, regardless of who is closing the show.
drafter37 - I have no answer...sorry.
justi85 - The chrome on Joe's guitar is a chrome coating. The guitar isn't solid metal. That'd be very heavy...LOL.
NonSmoker - Congrats on 4 days. You're doing great.
punkdude75 - One of the necks has each string tuned to E.
...Austin...

JOE - I am so glad to hear the tour went well. .... PLEASE play MEMORIES and HORDES OF LOCUSTS at Toronto on August 31st! For the Clones pretty please??? Maybe it's asking for too much but Joe, I was watching a bootleg I have of you playing Toronto in 1990 on the FIABD tour. It was an excellent show. You were so so energetic and into the songs and you moved more. Also every now and then between songs you have have little jams with Stu. For instance after the Crush of Love if you remember... I will make a cd with that tour on as a video. Hopefully you will find time to watch it.

Death_Cube_K - i have a 2k2 three channel dual recto. (love it!)
no, i don't sound like "new metal", not that it's bad, just not me.
it's too bad that it's been stereo-typed as such, 'cause it's very versatile. again, tone starts in the hands.
You got the deal of the century if you picked up a 100 watt 6100 head for $250. was someone in need of a crack fix or what?(just kidding folks)
gotta go - we're writing the master track for the next tune we're gonna record.
later....

Hey Joe, Welome home man. Glad to hear you had such a great time in europe. I hope all of you are just as pumped up as I am for the next part of your tour. I have never been disappointed at one of your shows,you are a class act and I thank you for being who you are,A SHRED MONSTER! I 'll bet when you were in high school all the kids would see you and say, hey man there's that guy that plays the guitar I wish I could play like that. most of us are still saying that, except for maybe little Stevie Vai( SHRED MONSTER).
jblaze1: How in tarnation did ya get yer ear impacted. Putting yer ear to the speaker with the stereo turned up full blast is not the best way to listen to Mind Storm ya know. You have to put a speaker to each side of your head so's the presure equals out, dat way ya don't gets these problems....lol. Man that has got to suck. Last time I saw Joe was on the EOC tour and I had one of the worst headaches of my life. I have sinus trouble and it just so happened that I came down with a sinus infection a couple of days before the show, so I went to the doctor to see what he could give me, he said, son!, son!, you've gone too far...and he gave me some Vicodin which only made matters worse because they dried my sinus's out. Imagine being on three 7.5 vikies and still having the worst headache ever and to top it all off the A.C. vent was blasting right on my head where we were sitting. Then the headache moved to my ears. Between the headache/earache and being druged out on Vicodin I was in some kinda bad shape but in true pit bull style I stuck it for the whole show then I went back to the hotel room and died. I hope your feeling better come show time, I don't know how serious an impacted ear is but it doesn't sound good at all. About the e-mail, I'll have to check it out but, I think I must have given you another bogus e-mail address. The right addy should be hmaclean@fdn.com.
Yeap, I screwed it up agian. Sorry about that jblaze. hmaclean@fdn.com is the correct addy.
