Hello Friends!!!!!!

OVATION1 - Yesterday i taked a few photos in SUPERTUBOS (PENICHE). Good waves but not vey high. 20 guys on the water under a wild wind, my hands were trembled when i taked the photos. Now try to think what that guys were feeling on the water, wow :-))) !!! About the drinks, we are linving in a Global World, i think that we drink the same things :-). I love Mineral water, the best drink :-)). But Portugal has great wines ;-). A good wine with a good fish, what a great dinner eheheh!!! About Girls :-))), the young women in Portugal are very pretty day by day, but the old women, i don`t think so :-)))))))) ehehehe. About my Region i think that i have found a good website: http://www.rt-oeste.pt ( It has the English option). And how is going the life in Okinawa ;-)? Regards dear friend and have a nice day.

MICK87 - Great Guitar and it is not very expensive, very well my friend :-)!! Wow, holidays :-))!!! I need that as well ;-)). Happy 500!!!

MISCHIEVOUS - I didn`t see anything on attachment, try again. Thanks alot for the song of the day :-)), you are very kind!!!

Stu Clone: ROTFLMAO man, lol, that would be classic if he posted about all his half post's, hehe ;-)

alexandrecaetano: hehe, I can only imagine what those guy's felt like on the water, lol!! :-0.... Mineral water is great as well as wine :-) and I hear what your saying about the young vs. the old women, hehe, same here my friend, haha!! Thank's for that link of Portugal, I will check it out!!.... The last few day's here have been cooooold *-).... Have a great week!! :-)

G3 for PORTUGAL and SLOVENIA!!

....And I would like to thank amddata again for posting the link of JOE at NAMM!!.... Everyone check it out!!.... Joe cruises into The Crush Of Love, talk's a little, then say's: "I'm switching through this cd and skipping, like, I dont want to play this one" and then he cruises into Satch Boogie.... hehe, then he goes into Midnight, yes, I said Midnight, and does a little jam at the end....

Dammit have to type it all again. Whatever I had before I forget. Doesn't matter anyway.

Jelly Man / Austin: my best score for intermediate level minesweeper is 24 seconds. Anything above a minute is a crap game for me. Expert level I can't recall my best time, but at one stage it was 130 something seconds. I'll check it out later. It's not as easy because sometimes you have to guess more than once, and you can't guess correctly every time. Intermediate and easy levels are merely a race against the clock. You can usually solve them without having to take a risk. I usually die because I click the box next to the one I meant to click on. BANG!

I still have a month of holiday left I think. Either that or only 4 weeks.

R6R: they're brilliant. I remember hearing the last one before. Probably heard them all before, but that one sticks out in my mind.

Oh. I'm meeting some guys for a band practice for a thing next week I found out about yesterday. Supposed to be there at 1, so I've got 25 minutes to walk home, drive into town to get my stuff and back out to where we're meeting. Haven't read the last 3 pages yet.

wow...thanks for posting that link of Joe at the NAMM show that was cool...

IceZer..well I will for sure be going by the wiring diagram when I install the pickups...I will be doing them myself... I've done it before a couple of times...the pickups are supposed to arrive tomorrow...can't wait :o)

I saw the tone diagrams on the Paf Pro and the Fred...the Fred has a higher mid range than treble or bass... and the Pro has more treble than mids or bass.......so.....to make the "PAF Joe" better match the Fred... I would assume they balanced the Pro a little more to create the "Joe"...but then, only Joe knows for sure ...lol....

Jelly Man - Geez, synth pickups for a midi controller? that's new to me! I've actually never heard anything from 6DOIT... with Rudess, I like a lot of the Scenes From A Memory cd. Do you have the album he did with Petrucci? I'm not sure what its called but it's under JP's discography...

Alexandre - Thanks a lot man! Hope you get some holidays as well too! And boy, those beachs along Portugal look amazing! Take care...

Ovation - Thanks for the Joe at NAMM video! Ah man that JSX sounds truely kick@sslikenessly good! So good that I'm truely pooched...

Clarky, oh Clarky...whatever shall we do with you? (DON'T ANSWER THAT!!)

SupaaDave, good luck with your girlfriend. I wish you the best :)

ToneCapone, congrats on the new house!

Fretslayer, happy 2-hunnert!

Stacy, I wanna hear all about your reading, but you don't have to say everything she told you if you don't want to. I would LOVE to be read! I saw that show on VH1. I totally agree, grunge brought out the depressed side of everyone. Don't get me wrong, I loved Pearl Jam, STP, and all that went with it, but it took a little while for it to grab hold of me. I loved the Crue, Skid Row, Whitesnake, etc, and still do. It was sad to see them fade like they did. Funny, my 15 yr. old daughter is a Bon Jovi fan now. lol! I never had any of their cd's, so I bought her a "best of" for her birthday in Dec. She's loves it! lol! I think my fav song of theirs has always been Bad Medicine.

anibur, so glad everything is working well for you. We switched a while ago, maybe 2 years or so? We got a digital camera since then, so that made up for a lot. lol! My husband brought home a scanner from work that they were going to throw away, so maybe we can get that working soon :)

Austin, Joe is 5'9 and not an inch shorter!!! lol!

Dragonchild, the first worst cover to pop into my mind is Pat Boone doing Metallica. ACK!!! OH NO WAIT!!! It was Snoop Dogg doing Sad But True!!!

mick87: I was truely pooched to see it too~~ ;-)....

Fretslayer: Happy 200!!

First time post!

I would just like to plead to Joe and crew to have another G3 tour. I have missed the last 2 shows, one due to money problems and the last one because it sold it within a day of being released for my area. Whenever I get depressed I pop in Live in San Francisco and it always cheers me up. I hopefully will see you soon on another tour, G3 or Good ole Satch Classics.

SupaaDave - MAN, that movie was horrible. You're right, though, Aerosmith's Come Together sounds great...they worked with George Martin on it, which kinda makes it hard to screw up. ;-)

Aerosmith's scene in the movie was, ummm, interesting. Alcohol, drugs, and acting don't mix very well.

I think I'll start playing expert again, though, so I can get into the 120-140 range with the rest of you guys.

MICHELLE - yeah i got it, that 1 peso note wasnt funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!

eta -Well, if it's heavy it has to be done well. It can't just be drop-tuned to fuck with root/5 chords changing every eighth note, and some dude hacking his voice box for an entire album. I want to hear inventiveness, something a little different, some killer riffs, and (most importatntly) a good melody. There can be screaming, but not the whole time. The band also has to be really tight. My favourite 'heavy' bands are: Fear Factory, Pantera, Metallica (old-skool, obviously - not that St. Anger crap), Opeth, etc.

Jelly - I know exactly what you mean. I loved it because hey; I was watching Dream Theater!!!! lol... It was cool meeting you again, too. That wasn't my whole band - the bass player and singer were missing. I don't know why; I think they were busy that day...
