Cheese101- it's great to meet Joe fans on here! Yes I live in England, so the clock (posting time) is about 8 hours out for me- I don't even know how that varies in different parts of the US!

Do the Stu- 13 is not my favourite number. I don't really know what is though! I do think it a bit dumb though in hotels in England (and maybe elsewhere, I don't know) how they never have a room 13. I mean, houses are still numbered 13 and they don't seem to be struck by lightning and crumble into dust?!!! :-)

Jazzzzzzzy- :-)

Hoiguy79- no, I haven't heard of that, will look it up though as I'm always interested in anything that might possibly help! With our kids I think the benefits music can have are completely underestimated by some. I would love to have done some music therapy training, but you have to train full time and not work, and I can't afford to do that. So I just use it in an amateur kind of way, but so what if it helps the pupils! That's interesting that you're a psychologist, I am looking at possibilities at the moment of re-training as an Ed Psych. Apparently there are some conversion courses you can do over 2 years, whilst still working 3 or 4 days a week, so hopefully soon! My husband is currently doing a post grad qualification, so when he's finished with that it'll be my turn!

Just got in and my God, that concert was great. I mean Thursday show was off the chain, but tonight he shut it down. He was in top form. I was more blown away the second time than the first. My cousin really enjoyed the show. Joe did different totally different improves on some of the songs, which was dope.

Punkdude75: There are no words to describe that concert. Just take every son you've ever heard and combine it all in to one giant song. Then you will have about 1/4 of how one of his songs sounded. Man I wish you could of ben there. Next time...

Jazzzzy: Missed you again. Where where you hidin' htis time? I ran in to Zinc Master. We were pretty damn close to the stage. He was in the first row; I was in the second or third row off the left. Im still stunned. When the concert was over, I was the one who was "tingly" down there. Thanx again, you are a great asset to T2J!

I would also like to say thank you to Mr. John S. Iverson for everything you did for me tonight. You do your job well.

Bless you, Steve the security guy. I'll cover the high ground and you cover the low; everything will be just fine.

JOE: Thank you for blessing us with your "Strange Beautiful Music." Your timeless compositions inspire us all. Oh yeah, save all bears indiginous to Chicago; they are counting on you!

Fretslayer, yeah Africa is on that DVD! That song should give a good representation of the Toto sound, it's a kinda big sound, and the DVD is littered with awesome solos from all of the band. Luke's playing is fantatsic - if you really like his playing then it's probably worth getting the DVD just to see! But hey, if you like Africa then you can't go wrong!

I don't know why Virgil left the Vai band.....I'm personally not into Jeremy much. I mean he's ok, full of energy, but I met him pre-G3 earlier this year and he seemed a little full of himself too, like he was trying to act cool cause he's in the Vai band.

Jeff on the other hand, is an absolute gentleman, he's 1st class!

Achoo: I missed you too but I think I saw you. I was with my "new lady friend" and we jetted out right after the show. The lady enjoyed Satch so much that we may head down to Cali in december to see Joe in SF, his hometown. She plans to pay for the trip so I will just relax. Thanks for your kind words man....

Zinc, how was the Platinum experience?

962: Jeremy Colson has the potential of being full of himself. I met him outside of the venue right after Vai's set and he was smoking a ciggy with his whole family. I was outside with a friend and looking at the pics I took of Vai and Yngwie when this really beautiful girl walks up to me and starts looking at the pictures I took. I asked who she was and she said she was Jeremy's cousin. I asked her for backstage passes and she later came to seat and gave it. She was a sweetie and a hottie! The Vai band is good except for Tony MacAlpine and Jeremy.

Hello there!

austin Yeah, I hope Music Today will get back to me... otherwise I don't know how to place my order. It seems I'm permanently logged in and I just can't find a logout function in the web shop, can you? Maybe I could register a new user name, but I don't understand why I would have to do all the work and not them...

it's STUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU, not Boo :)

Joe -

Have you ever played with Frank Gambale? I know Stu has and what a shred fest.

Pretty halarious. I heard she actually blamed the band.

Ashley, the next sound you hear will be your career going down the toilet.

Speaking of funny s*&t,

We have had some pretty political banter over the last couple of days. So sunday is for Football (NFL) and ug-gugs.
