webmaster - Is there a reason why the Thin Lizzy / Joe Satriani / Deep Purple tour dates are not listed in the Road - Archive section of the site?

I do know that MTV and VH1 do not currently play instrumental guitar rock music videos. Because of that, spending thousands of dollars per video and making two or three videos per album would be a huge waste of money. I'm sure Joe and Sony know that...otherwise, we would have nearly a dozen music videos from CP, EOC, SBM, and ITLIS?.

I'd love to see another DVD, but it's unrealistic to expect that it would be similar to The Satch Tapes. The way Joe's recording process has changed over the years (using Pro Tools, etc.), I think even something like another Reel Satriani is an unrealistic expectation.

Our best bet is another live DVD...hopefully we'll get one soon.

Your point was based on a misunderstanding.

Yeah, Joe usually uses one of Steve's guitars when he jams with Deep Purple. However, when he jammed with DP on 9/4/04 in Los Angeles, he used his aluminum guitar (the Chrome Boy replacement).

That might be fun, but I'm much closer to Ontario, California than I am to Ontario, Canada. I don't think it'd work... ;-)

Hello Satchland!!! Been a Long time, been a long time .......LED ZEP Rocks!!! No talking to you all lately! Sorry, I hope all my friends are doing well!

Clarky, Have you ever considered using www.Taxi.com to shop your music to the Music Moguls? $300.00 a year membership fee is not so bad.

Also, got any ideas on why Joe is not included in EC's festival? JS's Schedule?

Do The Stu, Another version of Reel Joe Satriani (The Satch Tapes) would be great, but I think you're right...we probably won't see another one of those!

Clarky!!! How are you?! I've missed you so much!! It's such a pleasure to read your earlier post..."The Moral is...it's not how big your technique is.....it's what you do with it that counts!" Amen Brotha! LOL! Don't matter if it music or sex you have to be able to go the duration and satisfy! Oh well. I understand how Sting can do what he does on stage and off...
