Hey Joe, just wanted to give you my "get well soon...we miss you!" I just got back to a computer workstation, so I had to re-register, but it's good to be back.(I was the original Strangebeaut) We can't wait for you to reschedule your show in Phoenix, I NEVER miss you guys. I do miss Stu(tell him that his fans in Phoenix say Hey!), but Matt is a perfect solution. All I time for is a huge Thank You for yet another exploration of the emotion of music. "Is There Love In Space?" is incredible! "Souls of Distortion" has touched me deeply-like the latest "Echo" or "Why". Gotta go! Hope to see you soon!

slanshroom i will let you know how it goes. i am just doing filler stuff for a song writer type thing. i think it will look funny a laptop sitting on top of a cab..lol

What are you talking about ?? LOL "

I am not sure what post you are referring to. The last post to you was to explain that Fight the good Fight is a Triumph tune not a RUSH tune. Use the quote feature and explain your question if you care to.

Hello Satchland!

After the Christmas break and three days of holiday, I'm here again.
Well...I don't really post very much but I often check the messages out, so I have been reading the posts since my last visit and why not to say, a pleasure, not only for all the cool people's messages over here but because it helps me to keep my English alive ;-)

First of all, I want to express my condolences and prayers and my solidarity to all those affected by the tsunami tragedy. I want to mention some of the first events organized by the music world:

Pop Stars for Victims in Asia: Cliff Richard, Elton John, Jamie Cullum, Boy George, Ronan Keating, Bee Gees...

Some big music stars unite for a charity single to help raise funds for the victims of the Indian Ocean Tsunami. The funds will go to the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC), which is co-ordinating the British relief effort, with the idea the day after Boxing Day.

It's really kind of you to miss me even when I'm not a very regular poster here hehe, I'm grateful for that. I love this forum! Sorry to hear about your baby's state of health, keep giving him the best of the cares, although I still have some time to have my own children, I have two nieces and two nephews and I know that babys need you 24 hours a day.

DelfinoPie: Is the "Additional Creations" rare by any chance as I haven't been able to find it...ever...

Additional Creations is the the only piece that is missing in my Joe Satriani collection, what a drap! It has became a very hard piece to find even at ebay, the two last times that was there, I lost the bids in the last seconds! And the average price now is about $40.

TASTEY,

I do enjoy Keith Urban's song writing, singing & guitar playing.

BUILD ME A BRIDGE

A man walking along a California beach was deep in prayer. Suddenly the sky clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said, "Because you have TRIED to be faithful to me in all ways, I will send you one miracle."

The man said, "Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over anytime I want." The Lord said, "Your request is very materialistic. Think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking. The supports required to reach the bottom of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would take! It will nearly exhaust several natural resources. I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things.
