Hi Joe

I just wanted to send you an e-mail to personally thank you for your music that I have enjoyed over the last 14 years. Different songs evoke different emotions for me that each song has its place in relation to my life.

I'm glad you are enjoying your vacation in Reno, (You cant stop yourself from jammin') I know its a great place with friendly people as i visited there when I came to the Bay Area 8 years ago. Your tour was amazing and the rest off the lads in the band were obvious enjoying themselves. And the selection of guitar was great to see (especially the double neck Ibanez you used on New Last Jam)

I know you get requests to visit many places in the world. I jusy want to say thanks for coming to Manchester on a regular basis. Did you get chance to see the city? It was a great gig on the 20th July. I was right at the front enjoying your music especially during surfin with the alien were you acknowledge the crowd. i was going mad at the front and you pointed to a few of us at the front. It was Brilliant.

Anyway Joe, thanks so much, I am really enjoying SBM at the moment. Hope you have a great tour in the states.

Thanks

Hey Joe I just wanted to say i really appreciate all the hard work you have put in over the years . As a total lamen the only albums i didnt really get hooked on were your self titled one and the engines of creation cd

. They were still great albums but nothing in comparison to Strange Beautiful music, crystal planet , extremist , surfing and not of this earth.

Yoda - I'll see if I can get the backing track cut onto CD when I've done it.... I'm sure that I'll be able to find someone that can halp somewhere..

Hi Joe!

WOW JOE, Glad you had a great time!! Great pic's BTW, and it must have been nice to "watch" for a change, lol!!....Bein' casual and all....That's kuul you got to play Steve's rig like that..musta' felt strrraaaaaaayayaaaaaaannnnnnnnggggggge at first I'll bet ;-)

Look's like JOE WILL be coming to Japan in OCT!!!! I gotta' check out plane ticket prices!!....It's like $500 round trip from where I'm at, and it's only a 2hr. flt!!

Prog X dude: Post Office told me 7 day's max dude....If they don't count the weekend's you should get it by Fri. or Mon. next week!! I'm keeping my finger's crossed dude!!

Joe, i just can't stop thinking about Led Zep on "New last jam" is this a tribute to this group and to your influences?

At what a big fuky' overdrivy destorded metally and undergrundy' amazin' saoooooound! Master on Mindstorm like an attack of the alien space turtles... Do you really go to Disneyworld...hummm...searching some fresh inspiration???(lol)

Hey Jon - any chance the SBM bonus tracks could be posted for download - for those who didn't get a japanese release?

Anibur - Yeah I suppose you're right, we wouldn't be able to get so close to Joe if he was known by everybody on the planet. Does that make Joe Exclusively ours.

Naty - how do you get on with the Euro, are things more expensive or cheaper. Over here most people you talk to are against the change and will vote against the euro when the referendum comes. We used the Euro in Greece and it wasn't so bad, prices didn't seem expensive at all but that's Greece, in England we seem to get ripped off. I've been to New York and seen how much cheaper stuff is over there too. We always seem to pay far too much for our stuff over here.

JOE, SBM just seems to get better every time I listen to it, I would probably say this is your best album yet. That wah wah sound in You Saved My Life just brings out the emotion. What is this song about?

Bye the way, where is Reno, please excuse my ignorance, Geography never was my strong point.

Thanks

Hey Jon - Second Stu Hacking's request, why didn't we get the bonus tracks in the UK.

Peter Mulas - got your copy of SBM yet?

Hey Jon - Third Stu Hacking's request, why didn't we get the bonus tracks in France ? OVATION, u're in japan dude, right? Why don't u share the song "the eight steps" with us ? ANIBUR, u're right in a way.The Olympia (paris) show was sold out 3 weeks before the concert!!! Hi joe, nice pics!! abdallah

Same request about the 2 bonus tracks from SBM. Could you propose it for listening online? or sharing?

salut abdallah, as-tu déjà été à un concert de JS et où?

About Joe's Chromeboy... The chrome itself is the finish. Nothing on top. So the chrome does smudge & fade & chip in time. Ahh, but it's a nice guitar anyways.

Anybody, is anyone watching the boxing at the Commonwealth games. There's a bloke called David Cadieux from Canada boxing the Nigerian bloke and he's just won. Joe, any relation to Eric?

Wow, I had no idea I was so lucky to be an Aussie Satch fan with a copy of SBM! Pete, try JB HiFi, (If there are any in Sydney) they have always got the latest Satch and Vai albums in pretty quickly on special import.

The intro of what breaks a heart until 1'15" seems to be a bambina song...like a father to his child telling him a fairy tail... a really sweet candy melody played so preciously with love and tenderness... satch a celtic hero's story that love so much our children, the story of a hero who's in love with a splendid princess prisoner from a dragon... what's dude shrek? (lol) i go back re-listen it...so nice daddy Joe!
