cuthbert - power is wealth... in the day of the Crusades the pope was top man.. higher than any King..
the upper layers of christian power saw islam as a serious threat... also, there was great wealth and plunder available in the holy land..
so why for so long was islam ok to exist in the holy land...
and then one day it's decided that Jerusalem must be "liberated".... under the guise of a pilgrimage [at least for the 1st Crusade.. that other 3 were more obviously military..]
study the situation deep enough.. and you'll find bounty for the pope...
new Christian converts... more "donations" for the faith...
"My contention is that any effort to obtain the wealth of other nations via force is unjust (just as armed robbery is unjust), and should be eschewed (especially by those nations that espouse freedom)."
this is interesting... it has parallels with the Gulf Wars... not really to take someone else's resources... but to make sure that they remain on sale to you... lol..
"Likewise, wars to preserve national interests that are not related to defense of territyory or property already lawfully and directly owned by the aggressor are, IMHO, unjust."
this is really interesting... at what point does a nations borders become their own...
The Falklands are British.. Argentina argued the point and lost.
The borders in the Eastern Bloc and the mordern middle east were drawn by UK, France, Russia and USA after WW2.. and the trouble cause by them continues today...
should the native American invade the UK for taking the 13 colonies from them... lol...
and so on...
so how do you know if you are in the right...
because your border has stood for a few hundred years???
interesting stuff..
zen - Shredz is doing great... done so far:

michelle - more like an ass of bucket.. lmao..

cuthbert - interesting thing about WW2 Swiss... all armies will face grief there.. the land poses too many problems in military and logistical terms...
and the German army of WW2 was really designed for swift, highly mobile, combined arms warfare...
the Alps would eliminate their speed, mobility and air support...
even more so than Stalingrad... and look what happened there....
there is nothing in Switzerland worth risking such high potential losses that is worth having...
The Falklands commands Cape Horn
Gib. the straights entering the Med Sea..
Pripet Marshes in Poland, the Ardennes in Belgium, the English Channel, The Po Valley in Italy
places like these are of great strategic significance...
mikesb - I've been Mongolised loads of times... lmao...
one of the key principles behind the Roman Empire was the swift Romanisation of the native population...
Yoda - I'm not over keen when they thrash... but when they slow down and get really heavy it's awesome... I love the really deep vocals... that is so me... and when the groove is slow but the kick drums are really quick... awesome....
well into it..
optical - change your rig when you really need to...
like it's not powerful enough for the gigs you play, or you need to mordernise or introduce more flexibility via new technology.. or the tone is not right for your playing style...
make change s because you need to...
and not because you are on some kind of tone quest...

The concert was excellent last night! We had a great time. One of the guys I was with had never been to JS concert and needless to say he loved it. We all really loved it.
I must admit that I've never seen a more dead crowd up front at perhaps any concert I've ever been to though. It was hard to believe! I wish we could have been closer...but still we all thoroughly enjoyed the show. I'll be talking about this one for quite a while.
I hadn't been to a show since the first G3. I have most of the newer cd's though. I'm loving the "strange" songs y'all are playing. Those are the ones we want to hear. Thanks so much!
I also liked seeing the rhythm parts of your songs played-great playing by Galen. That was a real treat. Matt was excellent on bass too. But I want to know if he's making up words to the songs (the ones without lyrics that is) LOL!
I hope you'll come back to Ohio again soon despite the empty seats and quiet crowd.

Hi, this is a message, from chris, at cheese101
I was wondering if anyone out there who plays guitar know the song SMF, and could tell me Joes Approximate settings on a basic amp. IE: Eq, dist level, reverb, etc.
I would appreciate it so much, thanks.
Chris

michelle & Do The Stu ; Yes Live at the Budokan is really good. I have to admit I didn't even know who they were till Joe played with them. They kind of remind me of Emerson Lake & Palmer. I have Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, Images and Words, When Dream and Day Unite and An evening with J. Petrucci & J. Rudess so far.
I don't know the songs yet , but I have to say their music is intense.
I received my platinum t- shirt finally and it's off to Austin Tx to see Joe tomorrow !!! woo-hoo , from the reviews it should be incredible. I have to work till 11:00 am and then catch the plane at 1:00 pm (friday) with the wife. She loves Joe's music too!! I'll let you all know how it went. Brian

Sorry! I hit that too quick! Double post but I spared you! I saw the movie "Hero" last week and it was awesome! I loved it!!
I knew I would. The cinematography and the fight scenes were just beautiful. I'm so glad I got to see it on the big screen.
Mikey, did you get to see it? I know it came out 2 years ago in Europe. I'm just so glad to finally be able to see it.

Cuthbert: Check out "Trouble Is..." by KWS it is a great album....KWS is a bout to put out a new very rocked up album which he will sing on for the first time....I'm not too crazy about his singing, kind of sounds like a white Lenny Kravitz and nasally. He should get back to letting Noah sing vocals again.

Woo. ZEN MASTER number two response. LOL. Thanks you guys. I really appreciate the feed back. Clarky, I really enjoy your music. You seem to be able to work at it full time and of course it shows. I drive a truck 10 to 12 hours a day so it's rare that I have the chance to get lost in what I would really like to do. Music. Clarky if you haven't listened to the song here's the link

Hi Joe,
Has your "Is There Love on Another Planet" been released in New Zealand? I have tried several record stores for months and seen no sign of it. My fault I guess for not asking for an autographed copy :(
Cheers
