Dear Joe:

Sorry I missed you at the Garden Staes Arts Center (NJ) concert in the summer of 1998 when your godfather (MG) called you and got me a press pass to see you in the tent after the concert. I saw the concert and you were fantastic! I had to leave at the end because the group I was with some of the guys got sick. They wer my ride.

God bless you!

Who is the "other guy" that Andre was referring to? Oh hell never mind, no need to drag it out any more than it has already.

Anyone caught mentioning breakfast foods on T2J will be shot on sight....lol

The Local Person - All the T2J'ers who have been here longest all know eachother regardless. Looks likes there's another event for the T2J history books happening right now.

Michelle - There are not a lot of people who are big enough to let someone else get the last word in. You deserve a pat on the back for that. - I don't think any people involved in the recent unpleasantness on T2J are anything short of generally good people, although, misunderstandings and disagreements can happen to anyone.

Phrygian Dominant: I think the reason people object to your swearing is because it's often directed at people as opposed to Joe's talent. Not that I care which is which, just that strong language can be a little unnecessary when you're disagreeing with someone or using it frequently.

Yeah I think I recall something about Elpp's banning thing. I bags you to find this one!!! Come back in a couple of weeks when you've dug it out!

Anyone know what happened to Xrob? Did he lose his Satchvation?

come on everyone lets all get happy again, like that one dude said in that one movie long ago "Why cant we all just get along?" hehe like they say its all fun and games till someone gets hurt..... but we all know thats the funny part

Hi everyone...

The Local Person - I first registered on this site in March or April of 2000. It was between EOC's release date and the first night of the tour (4/12/00). However, I didn't start posting here until December of 2000, before the LISF shows at The Fillmore. I was Nitsua111 originally.

Man O Man...Eric... It's too bad that you've been upset with a few of the people here... I missed you man... I hope I wasn't one of those people... if I was... I appologize. I don't like to see Joe or his friends upset. This Guns N Roses thing has everyone curious though... I hope things worked well with those guys! You do have to admit there are alot of trouble makers on the site... poking into people's private affairs and whatnot... and that situation about someone using you to get to meet Joe is just bad business...

Man O Man Joe... Your music pumps me up... gets me going in the morning... I start work at 7:00am every morning and a shot of Satch is perfect to get my ass in gear and pump out the products for my boss... nothing else seems to matter when I'm listening to your stuff... Thanks for the Best Rock out there!!

You're the best!

On a bad note... I've developed some pretty nasty warts on my chording hand... I've tried every treatment out there... then I heard that scientists discovered that "Duct Tape" amazingly removes the warts better than any known treatment available in a drug store other than a prescription. So I'm giving it a shot... better than cutting the head off of the wart in order for me to feel comfortable playing my guitar again or spending tonnes of money on a prescription that may have side effects... Sorry for the graphic explanation gang...

hey joe, how's the webchip behind the ear? it might need a new battery..since you can't go anywhere without your website..

Phrygian Dominant: sorry if it came over like that! I never said anything was okay or not, I said maybe (I think I said "maybe" * I certainly meant maybe) some people pick up on it because of that. I don't mean to say saying Joe is "fucking awesome" doesn't twig any reaction either however with some people it doesn't. Seriously, how many times have people said "tsk tsk tsk, language" to those kind of posts? I haven't ever seen any. It's rare that a reaction like what you received from that post would be given to a post with lower frequency of "swearing"...and anyhoo I've lost my train of thought!!! I think you understand what I mean. I'd say too that most of the time it's "non-regulars" (if I can say that) that tend to use such colourful language.

I did observe however that you were directing it in frustration/anger at/in regard to particular people.

As has been said many times before (and recently by Clarky) you can't hear my tone of voice, or see my facial expressions, or watch my gesticulations so it's easy to get the wrong message. Sorry bud!

(PS, not sure if you may have been confused, but only the first paragraph of that earlier message was directed to you, if that makes any difference)
