dragonchild: Your real name sounds like a moviestar, and "Dragonchild" just sounds really kuul! Mari is a plain name.

I'm behind a day in the posts, and I love the newsite! Kuul! Too tired, went for a run then went to Yoga but they move the class up an hour so I missed it! Laters......

cool site joe, looking forward to the new record and tour this year. just got the g3 dvd and cd from cd universe, it rocks.

JS Song Tournament

Two pairs of songs are still tied. I need someone who hasn't voted already to vote and break them.

Click here to vote on each round (R1SA, R1SB, R1SC, R1SD, R1SE). It won't take more than a few minutes.

All I need is for one person who hasn't voted already to vote on each round. Please vote so we can all move on. ;-)

EDIT - I goofed and forgot to finish counting Leanna's partial votes. After adding her votes, we only have one tie left. It is in R1SA. Someone please break the tie. Come on. ;-)

Ahhh, more snow! It was 50 degrees today, and tomorrow morning they want us to get snow - somewhere around 3-6 inches. Could be the last snow of the year. Enjoy it peoples!

hey alex...yes i am so pumped about spring/summer heading this way! i have to get another board, the one i have now is a few inches too short...

matt martinez...thanks for the multiple listens! i really wasn't trying to touch upon anythign joe had ever done with that track, in fact i'm trying my hadest to separate myself from him musically, he is a great hero, but i cannot mimick him if i wish to make it anywhere...

christ peters, man you best make it out to jemfest :) it's the one time we'll be very local to you! perhaps we can get a jam up there with you if you bring your gear...call me if you have a cell phone -- send me an email and ill give yuo my phone number. we can set somethign up...

Wow, I find a break in my strangely busy schedule...and it's happened again. 19 pages...

Site looks pretty cool. I like the new underlying images. Looks 100 times better than the old one. Navigation is MUCH better designed. I miss the drop down menu though.

And Bil makes a comeback!!! Hey hey hey.

Kayaking in Tassie? My word. Not as good as New Zealand, but it's definitely there.

Not to demean the Hiji Falls or anything, but there's stacks of those awesome spots all over the place here, and some of them are right there next to civilisation too!

Anyone notice that explored links on the new look are a deep blue?!?

Last five days thing: Webmaster excellent plan.

Yep, it's busy. Sunday arvo the band played outdoors at a multicultural food fest. Hard work in the harsh sun. The sun down here stings like a branding iron. (Not as hurties though.) Didn't have a hat on, no shade, no cloud cover and I had a headache from sunstroke later on. Couldn't see for the sun in my eyes and reflecting off the (brilliant finish Zildjian A Custom) cymbals. Apparently the sound and overall "vibe" was pretty good so that's great. It was fun, and that's an important part too!

Jacob: Nothing weird about that. I start laughing about things in my head (not talking about voices...) all the time. Sometimes embarrassing...but I don't care in the end. Too bad on them for missing out on the funny stuff.

Joe has this to say: Hi fans. Great to be a part of such an awesome group of people. Hope to see you on the tour - Joe

Just looking at the back cover for Is There Love In Space? and I've noticed the length for "Searching" is 10:07...wow. That could be cool! I'm still looking forward to this album!!!

Howdy, one and all. I like the new site design. The T2J forum is now actually *easier* to read on my monitor ;-)

Michelle, I love the phrase you coined, "weapon of mass distortion". That'd make for a great guitar-related T-shirt!

PhrygianDominant: Thanks for the correction on Mr. Rutsey and the first album
D/\\/E You've got my curiosity up now, so I'll have to do some searching, lol, and btw, if you cant figure out whether it is Neil or not, then it is probably Neil, lol!! ;-)

michelle: haha, I see that STU loves the kitty wave, ROTFLMAO!!!! HAHA, he is more human than cat, lol!!.... Oh, and on that Edmund Fitz link, I found out it is a surf-punk version, and totally silly, ROTFLMAO!!.... btw, on Now that's my kind of dog, well, maybe not the gay part, but hey, it's San Francisco, right. lol!.... ROTFLMAO, you always make me smile michelle!! :-)

962: lol on the Fruit Suits, skyliner..hehe!! On the JEM.... I havent had a chance to go back to the store with work taking up most of my life these day's, but I think when I do go check it out, I may end up keeping it (even with the lame repair that I will pay 0 for, lol) cause I'll probably have a hard time finding one again, lol!!....

Do The Stu: lol on your exciting report, hehe, and you passed up two girls in bikinis to sign on to T2J!! :-0 ;-)

mick87: haha, lol man, JOE told us what his dog was in the chat, and I think I just was thinking about Billy and China, and got them mixed up, ROTFLMAO!!!!.... Someone please correct me on JOE's dog!!.... I think I'm getting it mixed up with Billy's doggie story, hehe, I think I'm losing my mind Mike from all those circuit breaker panel strikes, LMAO!!.... Edit: I see michelle has cleared up the dogmess.... JOES dog is a Norwich Terrier!! ;-)

alexandrecaetano: Hope you kick that cold soon bro, and I'm sending Warm Regards your way to clear up the weather!! :-).... You are a great son and a great guitarist my friend.... Have a great week!! :-)

trutina: Way to go bro!!.... Glad to see your able to use a great pick attack (instead of legato, lol) on the keyboard again, hehe, and enjoy regular food again bro!!.... And give Miranda a kiss for us!! :-)

Artanis I: I've been wondering if Searching (A 10 min. Jam according to JOE) will outdo Bells Of Lal II!!....

WEBMASTER hey bud, love the new site. i give you extra points for being a Mac user ;)

just wanted to let you know the vault tab graphic is probably not the one you meant to be linked. the font isn't the same as the other tabs when you choose "vault" - i bet the graphic that shows is just from a previous batch of graphics you were experimenting with...i do that too now and then ;)

rustcycle - yeah, i'm sad to see that in doing checks the last day or so, of all satriani.com visitors, there were 1/2 million hits from windows folks, and only 17k from mac folks (19k from other than that, many of which were realplayer playing clips). more people should get macs!

Joe, a few JSX questions.....

Will there be a 2X12 combo amp with 2X12 extension speaker cabinets?

Will there be a new JSX cabinet or will Peavey simply mate the JSX head to either a Triple XXX or 5150 cabinet?

Since I'm (desperately) in the market to get a new amp, well, aside from purchase price is there any reason whatsoever that I should buy a Legacy instead of waiting for the JSX????

:-)
