HELLO EVERYONE - BEEN A WHILE. HOPE YOU ARE ALL WELL.

Slanshroom bro - be careful how you 'splain things telling people you will let them know "when I get it up" is not the correct phrasology dude :o)

CLARKY - I will try posting that tonight if I can I'll put it here

SLANSHROOMS TUNE PAGE AND NEW TUNE FOR CLARKY

Thanks Stevee T and eamon7 for the words of encouragement and for anybody else, my e-mail is "satchjr_01@hotmail.com" . Take care everybody and keep on Surfin' w/ the Alien.

I had the opportunity to meet Joe with the Platinum package in Columbus, OH. He signed my transparent red JS. What an incredibly nice guy! There were so many things I wanted to say after having been a fan for so long, but with the crowd waiting, all I got out was to thank him for producing the best music. Period. And to tell him that his music has been the sound track of my life - from the highest highs to the lowest lows.

To me, the Joe connection hasn't ever been about who's the fastest player or the heaviest, it's that Joe writes GREAT songs that speak to people - not to mention the technical abilities! Very rarely does someone posses the technical prowess he does with an ability to create such beautiful and meaningful music. In my opinion, the purest form of expression is the guitar (not words, not painting, not photography) and Joe has simply taken this to a level beyond my comprehension.

So, Joe, thanks again for the life time body of work, how it has touched and influenced me in many facets of my life, for offering the platinum experience, and for being so pleasant to finally meet. As my license plate on my Corvette says, 1 BIGRSH, it's was really one big rush to meet you after having seen you 7 times.

Take care,

....Had to check in on michelle' answer, lol....

michelle: Thanks for clarifying that for me, and hope your co-worker pulls through soon :-) lmao on sis' mouth still working, haha, thats all that counts isnt it! ;-)

death cube k: Great new tune /\/\/\R|<!!.... Very outer worldly and it reminds of some of the stuff that DJ Shadow does, lol, great sounds man, and all with a thimble?!?!.... Mattias would be proud bro!! ;-)

mowlie_2000: It depends on where you live man.... For ex., I used to live in Hermosa Beach CA., and the further East you went (certain areas), you could tell if you shouldnt be there, lol!.... Bars on the windows (when is the last time a hurricane hit Cali, lol!!), cars on blocks, etc.... I do believe, however, that Hollyweird overdoes reality.... I was a little unweary when I first moved there, but when I got there, I realised that the media is full of shit and would love to live there again!!.... Each place is how you make it....

SaaTcHm0: Hey man, we hope to see you home soon too bro, and ROCK with SATCH o' great Ambassador!! :-) Stay safe and please know that we are with you guys in spirit!!....

Fablawyer of SBM: Great to see ya Ronnie!.... Thanks for posted Slansh' link, I lost it!!.... Great new tune man, hope you guys get to hook up again someday....

Keep up the great work /\/\/\R|<!!

See all you kuul folk soon.... l8taz....

Jazzy, Kerry took PA! whoo! lol! ~~ I have Youth. and Countdown, also Criptic. I think I have something possibly called Hidden Treasures on cassette too. Never got into the early stuff to much.

Aarren, I have to disagree with my bud Mikey on the crime thang. We moved out of the city before our daughter turned two. We couldn't take it anymore. It seemed like NObody slept/worked/had respect for anything. People were up and outside all hours of the night and in all weather making noise like it was mid-afternoon. Crime was getting worse, so we bailed to a place where I could walk my daughter around the neighborhood without being disrespected by punkass kids who were never taught the simplest rules of decency. Now, my mom & stepdad still live there. Just 3 weeks ago, they parked in the wrong spot. They got their tires slashed and the front window of their van smashed in. It happened to at least one other car that same week. My mom tells me that most days a kid stands on each corner at the end of her block across the street. One in a long white t shirt, the other in a long black t shirt - each protecting their "turf". Drug dealers have pit bulls & Rottys throughout the city trained to be vicious and attack. Muggings, especially 3 on 1 type muggings are very common. Sometimes they just get knocked to the ground, sometimes they get beaten within inches of their lives. No matter for $1. or $100., and no matter what age. Seniors get beaten after they come from the banks with their social security checks. Kids get their jewelery, jackets, and sneakers taken from them. A few years ago, my mom & pop were out late. They came home to find that a bullet had come through their bedroom window, through the headboard of the bed EXACTLY where my mom would have been sleeping had they been in bed, and lodged in the attic ceiling. My sister lives a few blocks away where it's worse. She's already come out in the morning a few times to find bullet casing on her pavement from a gunfight the night before. She has every window on her first floor covered so no one can see her or her daughter (she's a single mother). She gets NO sunlight in her house on the first floor because of this. I could go on and on about the crime in the city, but I think you get my point. I don't see how anybody can make all that a good thing, no matter how optimistic.

Clarky & 962 - I really hate to be so pedantic, but it's such an innate part of my personality that I couldn't help it; as much as I told myself to leave it alone I just couldn't!!!! lol... Anyway, Clarky was wearing a The Extremist t-shirt and said we were going to see George Clinton. Damn my memory's good. Trouble is, it often makes me sound like an ass... lmao

Joe -

Deanne and I finall made it back home from the Nashville and New Orleans shows. The bearings in the RV gave out and we were stuck in Arkansas until Monday when Chevy could get the parts and install them. It was a real pleasure meeting and talking with you, Jeff and Mick too! Thank you for the autographs and the warm conversation. My voice is starting to come back.

We have made plans to see you in San Francisco on the 26th.

Thank you again for two great shows, you can fly!

P.S. John I, is the man. Kudos to him and Fan Fire.

Your loyal subject,

Mowlie: Minnesota is a pretty nice state. Peaceful, calm and naive people. Its great because nobody bugs you. Crime rate is very low. The closest gangs you will find are high school kids circling the mall trying to figure out wheter to eat at Hardees or Wendy's and then go to hot topic or Abercrombie. It can be worse in some other places, but its so freakin cold most of the year that the gangsters become lazy.

Michelle: Good collection of Megadeth cd's. An old one of theirs that is pretty good is So far, so good, so what? Its got "in my darkest hour" which is a pretty damn good one. Happy to know that Kerry's got PA. Minnesota's got Kerry too. I cannot understand how people can be so ignorant and vote Bush.

962- ranker than that jelly has got to be.... black pudding.
