Joe ! Please Play in NYC at Madison Square Garden it is the clostest thing to my house, i live in second ave in New York City and i cant really be able to go out side of the city that much cause of my parents and when it comes to going to concerts they wont have it :) iam a really big fan and my first time seeing you perorm was at Jones Beach Sept 14 the only reaons why i went to that concert was that my uncle took me we where both front row center it was a really aweosme concert i had so much fun. i am a really huge fan of your and i just wish that you would at lest do one Concert at Madison Square Garden cause that is the only venue that is close to my house and that my paents don't have to worry about driving me out side of the states. Another reason why is becausei have school so i cant really go to see your concerts out side of New York city. but please if u get a chance to read this message give me an answer okay ?

2: Do u still keep in Touch with Steve Vai one of your former students? if so it would be great for you two to make a album toughter :)

3: Do u give lessons in New York City ?, unfortunetly i live in New York City and i hear that u are located somewhere in the Bay Area if so i would love to get a lesson from you :)

jonny - Sounds like you have dirty POTs in your amp. Radio Shack has contact cleaner, get some and try it. Be very careful(duh!) so as not to fry yourself. If you're not comfortable with this idea, take it to a repair shop for a tune up.

Clarky - we've DSL in the studio, checked out your IUMA site. Great stuff man!

DCK - I'll try to check your new stuff wed., didn't have time to get to your site.

Hey did anyone else notice that the "Reward for stolen guitar" thingy is missing from the home page? What's up webmaster? Was the guitar found or is it a lost cause?

Plum Loco, I agree with you 100% on the theory thing. It's more fun playing what feels right, rather than playing what is technically right. I'm not knocking theory, it's very important, but it is'nt fun anymore when it becomes work.

dud 26, no, no, no, no, absolutely DO NOT put lemon oil on ANY part of your guitar. Lemon oil is the devil.....any guitar polish or a very lightly dampened cloth is all you need to clean your fretboard.
