greg m, mick87 - i didn't know you guys were christians... greg, you know the guys i told you that i knew at york... they're both christians... though i don't know if they got to cu cause it's on saturdays.
There are many people who go to church on Sundays and lead bad lives. Being a christian is fundamentally based in believing in the work Jesus accomplished around 2000 years ago, and a result of that, giving your life over to God.
Helping old ladies across the road is not enough - it's like being asked to jump from London to Capetown but only getting as far as brighton- you may have done a lot, but you're waay short of God's standards.

Hey, everyone, been busy for the last several days taking care of the maintenance of life, so forgive me if I've missed something here... :)
Just wanted to drop in and let everyone know that my new One With The Computer song, Virtualità, is now up and running on my SoundClick page, so anyone that wants to give it a listen and throw me some feedback on it is welcome to head over there. I have also given Just Another Cool Jam and Techno Logical (Dawg's Theme) a bit of a mixing overhaul to give them a little more punch, so they might be worth giving a listen to, also. I've done some panning changes on the latter...
Virtualità is a song inspired by a piece of artwork under the same name created by Lorenzo Ravasco. In writing and recording the song Virtualità, I attempted to capture the mood that the artwork invoked in a musical sense.
Lorenzo Ravasco has a homepage of his own, Unicorn's Universe, where all of his artwork, including Virtualità, can be viewed. Most of it is of professional quality, and he does a lot of things with 3D graphics that will knock your eyes out. He is aware of what I am doing with my song and has agreed to allow me to use the picture Virtualità as the basis of my first CD's front cover artwork.
So....happy listening, and hope you all enjoy. More to come, so stay tuned... :)

The Prez I discovered Satch not long after I started playing. I think it was an article or a whole bunch of letters going on about this Satriani bloke who was obviously some kind of guitar god. I was still following Clapton, Moore (his later blues phase) and Blackmore. I thought "I suppose he's worth checking out" and has been my greatest influence since!!! Bought FIABD and sat in my bedroom for the rest of the day listening to it over and over and over!!! Went out and bought the rest of the "back catalogue" a day or so after!!
mikesblove the interview snippets- keep em coming!!
Ethn amps. Well, I've been using a Marshall VS100R, 100w amp since about 1995 which I gigged with for about a year (pub gigs). It still sounds phenomenal, and you can always unplug the speaker and use the line out for recording- instant "Marshall head".You do have to crank them a bit to get the best sound, tho. You could always use a "power brake" which takes the volume out without killing the power and tone. Recently (very!) I bought a Behringer v-amp which is a modelling amp like the line 6 pod. I was a bit suspicious at first, even went to talk to some amp specialists to get some advice- through headphones they sound crap, thin, noisy and buzzy, but through the line-out into my recording set-up (basically PC, amp, monitors) I've been able to get some cracking recording tones out of it (which , when I get my website set up you'll get a chance to hear) and hardly any noise! It's really changed my opinion of them. I'll still use the Marshall live, though, since I cant afford a Soldano SLO on my salary!!!
Hope this helps!!
Kev

michelle - in my work bag I always carry a small mag-lite.. but then if the light at the end of the tunnel has been cancelled I figure that mine would only be a little tunnel anyhow.. lol..
greg - cool dude.. I don't really worry too much about other folks beliefs either.. not unless it's in a threatening sense...
your cyber-shit.. I went through the same last year.. and it broke my laptop...
I'd been working on a design for hours and hours.. serious diagrams.. it included coding, signalling traces captured from the network.. a whole pile of stuff... it was a masterpiece.. my IBM abacus decided to go into a tail spin and die.. I powered back up.. opened the doc and it was empty appart from the title page.. the reason for this was that someone had turned off auto-save from the design temple doc that originated the design.. so only the 'save as' shit was saved 'cos I did that manually to name the doc... there was only one thing for it.. I punched the laptop in the face and elbowed it in the keyboard.. the sceen broke and I seriously cracked that chassis... lmao..
this proves that violence and technology do not mix.. hoever I felt so good... lol..
ovation - mmmm imagining.... lmao...

Another meaningless question: How many of you could look up at the night sky and clearly identify an object (but not the moon) :-)? Of course there is no point in this question, but i'm a very keen astronomer and I know a lot of people who don't appreciate the beauty of the night sky.

Clarky, it beats the hell out of a match stick :) lol!
eta, I can always find the Little Dipper. I LOVE looking at the sky, and my family makes fun of me because I'm always saying "Whoa, look at the sky! Isn't that beautiful!" lol! Clouds, sunsets, stars, or just plain blue sky - I love it.

Hey, Joe, happy here to see your G3 Tour goin' on and on every year. But what makes me sad is that you don't tour here (in Germany). I'm waitin' for years now for a new CD/DVD of your G3 Jams - damn, these rock! I really loved the G3 DVD (was it from 1996's concert?) but now I need somethin' new. Especially that video message of the 2003 tour made me hot for more. So, please release another CD/DVD (this time hopefully with the whole gig - not only three songs ;-) ). Don't you see? I'm suffering ..... :-)

Funny, all this talk about religion- I just got an email from a friend I haven't heard from in a while. She sent me the following. I think it says a lot.
>>If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million who won't survive the week.
>>
If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of 20 million people around the world.
>>
If you attend a church meeting without fear of harassment,
arrest, torture, or death, you are more blessed than almost three billion people in the world.
>>
If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75% of this world.
>>
If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.
>>
If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful, you are blessed because the majority can,
but most do not.
>>
If you can hold someone's hand, hug them
or even touch them on the shoulder, you are blessed because you can offer God's healing touch.
>>
If you can read this message, you are more blessed than over
two billion people in the world that cannot read anything at all.
>>
You are so blessed in ways you may never even know.
>>
>>
If you are feeling blessed, repay the blessings bestowed unto you and do something for others.
A blessing cannot be kept. If it stops with you, then the blessing will disappear. The blessing will only keep working if it is continuously passed around. If you are a recipient of a blessing, keep the blessing working by being the source of blessing to other people.

Jelly Man - That's very true... I completely agree with you. There are a lot of "Go for show" types out there, which doesn't do much for ya in the end, imo. If you ever want to chat more, feel free to send me an email sometime...
Ovation - haha, I think this will be my new lifelong goal. Get Joe to say Truely Pooched and maybe get Dr. Vai to get his guitar to say it as well, lmao. What a clever shredder. That rhymns!! 10 points for me, lol... and the relieving of extreme urinary buildup in the bladder is an incredible moment in a boys life, rofl!!
Joe - If you say "Truely Pooched" for me I will be forever grateful, lol. I'll even buy every cd and dvd of yours possible, even though I have most of them...
The curious cat, is an entertaining cat. My 6 toed, crooked tailed, once had popsicle sticks attached to her legs for support, cat is living proof of that.
Truely Pooched for G3
Michelle - That's a very nice email your friend sent you.
My computer won't make the musical notes ;-(...

eta-I love looking in sky with different shapes of clouds. But at night, I look the stars and my imagination become greater than ever before. Strange, isn't it, They are so big, so far away, but still so pretty.
SOTD: Clouds race across the sky(thanks to remember me, eta!)

King Graham,
I still have a year before Uni... The next few days are exams for this term. I wrote Math 112 today, then it's English 112, Bioligy 111, and Physics 112. I also took Music 120... but there's no exam. It kinda turned into a bird course, which was nice. All we did was go off and play guitar on our own. That's how I learnt that large washrooms have great acoustics, ;-)...
