Joe, I'm an active duty Air Force member who's been a fan since 1992. I've never been able to attend one of your shows due to deployments overseas and here in the states, but always had you with me and listened to you in some less than desirable places.

slanshroom: AWESOME news brotha!!.... Best of luck on your project, and I cant wait to hear what Clarky has to offer to it!!.... Stay kuul man, and keep in touch....

SupaaDave: hehehe ;-)

sachfan 123: Hey man, go to the Road section of this site and list yourself as attending.... That's your chance for a backstage pass!!.... Good luck!!....

Hi opticalstudio :-) Say hi to Randell for me too.... And keep rocking!!

Well, gotta run now, dont know when I'll have time to post next, so tell JOE we want some BLUE ;-)

jazzzzzzzy - I'm still waiting on answers to the things I mentioned in my previous post. Do you have them?

"You just missed it and that your fault."

It is not my fault for missing something that was posted at 4:55 am and then edited at 7:37 am when I was asleep until about 10:00 am that morning.

"And I think you missed you missed it on purpose because you complement with them very well."

Please explain how someone purposely misses a post when that someone does not know ahead of time when it will be posted or what it will say.

"Do a search yourself."

Before I responded to you yesterday, I did the same search that was later posted by cuthbert1776. "Pissed" didn't come up.

"Quit trying to be such a hypocrite."

How am I "trying" to be a hypocrite?

No, man...you've got it all wrong. You're supposed to slip it into the ground by his grave and say "What don't you like about the CD?"... :-)

climber i'm from nj...

OpticalStudio- thanks! You're right though, it's not usually the place that's bad... just the lowlives that bring it down! I won't get started on the whole story of the crapness of where we were living, just a combination of annoying sounds really- ranging from DIY / hammering to loud music at times / loud voices / shagging... etc I don't expect perfection, and know there will always be something that's not 100% wonderful about a house unless you're a billionairre, but if you can't get to sleep at night... well it's definitely time to move on. It's just that the moving on process takes so damn long!!! :-(

Sorry, I said I wasn't going to start going on!

Anyway- hope you settle in quickly, why do your neighbours get insulted by rock music by the way?

climber..lots of people live in new jersey, i doubt if every single one of them visits here though :P

SupaaDave, I reckon it's gonna be well over 5000 souls he'll have under his belt!

I'm trying to remember the series he's done....I think they were Around The World In 80 Days, Pole-to-Pole, Full Circle (which I think went all around the 'Pacific Rim'), Sahara, and the latest - Himalaya.

Alexandre, hola amigo! Yeah I love the Guitar Wars DVD, I thought Nuno's drumming was ace, but then it's not surprising....he was a drummer for ten years before he picked up a guitar.

I also love Gary Cherone's energetic performance on get The Funk Out.....he puts all his effort into it!

DoTheStu, I agree that CrazyBorg has his right to an opinion…of course, but “No Good”? He can’t find ANY GOOD! He’s Fckn Daft! Would he prefer that Joe made the same album over & over? As for asking him why he doesn’t like it…I feel pretty certain his answer will be as stupid as that post. Here’s my opinion…Joe Fckin Satriani has more God Dmn taste, chops, balls & soul than any Mther Fking Guitarist…who knows, maybe CrazyBorg is the next Satch? I’m an easy goin guy, but don’t fck with JS. Peace…Stevee T.

962, Yes, “Is There Love In Space” rocks…Your lifestyle is killin me….your lifestyle is killin me, and if I don’t do sumthin about it……….Whoa. How do ya spell Whoa?

Jazzzy

"song of the day - hello? by lionel richie"

I am so glad to see the prozac is working.......

DammMissNamm: Nice to see you coming to t2j just to taunt me. Grow up.

do the stu: forget about it. I think it dragged too far.

962: He's got DVD's out? I surely will check them out. I am quite a big fan of travel shows (the ones on discovery and scifi). I also enjoy the history channel. Most other shows on tv now are BS. American television has too many advertisements and reality shows. So I would love to own it on DVD. Are you a fan of horror documentaries? Discovery shows some documentaries that chill you to the bone. Its about paranormal sightings. There was this one documentary about a haunting in cleveland. A family had moved in to this house that used to be a funeral home. And the basement still had a room with beds and other funeral home accesories. When the family's kids moved down there, all hell broke loose. They had to call exorcists and poltergeists. It was awesome to watch but scared the living hell out of me. Have you seen the exorcist? If you like horror, also check out The woman in black. Man, its creepy. You dont have to reply to this post! its too long! just check it out man. And do you have any music recorded? pass me a link if you do. Or is it the soundclick one? I have been having trouble with soundclick so I think I ignore most soundclick links. Still, pass it on.

Clarky - lol Yeah, that would have been funny. "Actually mate, we have a spare ticket - when you knock off here you're welcome to come and join us. Get your funk on..." lmao

Do The Stu - Now that's a great idea; Satch Unplugged. Or even better - Satch & Friends Unplugged. Rather like that Friday Night In San Fran record with Al DiMeola, John McLaughlin, and Paco de Lucia. Only a whole lot more tasteful... lol

Olly - I'm doing great thanks. Sorry for the late reply. I'm getting increasingly uncomfortable with the prospect of graduating next year though. I'm looking forward to the actual event, but having to leave ACM and come back to reality - maybe even get a job (*shudder*) - is actually quite unsettling... How about you?

jazzzzzzzy

Jesus christ man I was only joking. Since when did your skin get so thin. I thought for sure the Lionel Richie song of the day must have been a joke from you. Man you sure can dish it out but can't take it?

Clarky - Shit, I almost forgot - I went to Anderton's earlier in the week and asked if they wouldn't mind me sticking the POD XT Pro through a 4 x 12 and cranking it some. They said it was okay, as long as it wasn't for too long. Wahey!!!! lol... Anyway, it sounded really great. The factory presets were a little OTT, but with enough tweaking and general fucking around I started to get some really nice sounds out of it. They have a dirty setting called 'Insane', so I flicked to that, twiddled a few pots and rocked out for a bit. Jesus Christ, I thought the fucking thing was going to eat me... lmao. Anyways, I've e-mailed GAK asking for a written quote (something I need to accompany the application form for this grant) for the POD XT Pro plus floorboard (which I've discovered you can configure like stomp boxes, as with the 2120), Marshall EL34 50/50, a six unit rack case thingy, and a 1960B 4 x 12. If this all comes together for me I'm going to have one hell of a rig. Which is nice... lol
