ZENFISH- Before i leave and forget.
You should send in one of your demo's to the
John lennon songwriting contest. You have a nice way with putting down "memoerable" song lyric's. In 03' when i strated, one of my first writtien song's "one step" a praise. Song recoeved Honorable mention in the contest's of thousand's, nd thousands who enter every year! (I enter all contest's and send away My song's to everyone) I think you would have a great sucess! Also it would help in getting you noticed!
it's just a thought. and somrthing fun to do!
And Yes, It's the Voice, howlin' wolf, Not the guitar howlLOL......................................
Mikesb- Rory Gallheger? I have to check that out to! He is Jazz?-Blues? both-He's past away? What are good album's by Rory? and the other guy, walter shrout?
I am trying to get as much blues info of the greats as i can. and study them. I want to be a metalshredderbluesspeedster.

SteveeT- hey steve, That's pretty nice for NY at this time!
Comfortable anyway's! It's raining slightly here!
No playing plugged in outdoors today. :-(
Well, time to take my medication. Hope evrthing is well!
and enjoy the cool NYC weather! Sometimes i want to move back there...Sometimes.? I find that here, there, it's all pretty much the same game. It's just that Manhattan, has a lot of Radical, and really wild area's. WILD area's! But fun.
wellll..... i thought at the time.

Zen, that Rory track is on "Stagestruck"
StevenWilde, look for one of Walters live DVD's, he has three or so of them. Before that I have a video of Walter with John Mayall, Coco Montoya on second guitar. Coco is really cool, another left-hander like Albert King and Doyle Bramhall that plays with the strings reversed.... Ever try that Clarky?? lol
I try to avoid live CD's these days and go for DVD's whenever possible and artists like Walter, Gary and Rory Gallagher are/were ar their best live........

Cuthbert - Yes, pay by the mile is going to be a reality here in the future. From an engineering and from a tax point of view this makes the most sense to me. If you don't use the roads why should you pay for them. It also gives you some control over your taxation. (One reason why I prefer sales tax over income tax) We have the technology to have this happen. Now it is a matter of implimentation and of course $$$$$$$$. There is a pilot program getting started this summer. I believe 600 vehicles will be equipted and the system tested. Like I said It makes a lot of sense. What are your thoughts? I'll see if I can dig up more info for you. If this works here you're going to see it nationwide.

Cuth - I forgot to add this is a "replacement" tax NOT an "in addition to" tax. The idea is that if you have the system in your car you will pay by the mile if not then you pay the per gallon tax.

Civgeek, the problem with these things is that once they get started, they never stop,
Garbage by the bag
Water by the glass
Travel by the mile
Sewage by the flush
Air by the breath???????

Hello Joe and everyone else.
First time poster and newly joined member here.
I have been playing guitar for around 20 yrs, started at around 10 years of age and am now 30,,,(getting old I know)
I have had 2 real guitar lessons in my life for a total of 1 hour of really meaningless junk. I have been a rythem player, and have just started the transition to a lead player. I would like you to know "Satch" that you have been the deciding factor in myself going to the lead playing style. When Randy Rhoads died unexpectedly, There wasnt any more real guitar "heros" around for a while untill the smoking Joe came along. Just wanted to say Kudos to you for taking a guitar and taking some of the most sweetest sounds it was never meant to make! Play loud and hard practice long and slow, music is not an easy street!!
Peace!

Clarky:I,m slowly becoming a paleta,the translation for that is trowel,lol,so i,m becoming a trowel,lmao.Right now i,m just a helper & building on experience.I guess some would call it construction/builder,fitting kitchens,toilets walls,floors showers etc from scratch.I love the working class peeps there so down t earth,no bull about them & very much up front,if they have something they dont like you have done,y know about it in seconds,i really really love & admire that about the work,cant stand people talking behind each others backs & playing mind games.
Emily Remler:What a playa bro,i bought her vid & consumed it every day for around 2 years,she was a fountain of knowledge for sure & yeah nice tits 2,lol
On the album of Jeff Berlins,the title i cant remember,was it not Crossroads?apart from that marathon version of the c minor prelude & yip making it t the end without messing up is so damn difficult,i also tryed Paganinis perpetual motion a long time ago but gave up,was 2 difficult,still is,bastard,lol,transcribed the lot,but after 4 mins of insanity,my hands cant take anymore,it was that track that fired me catapult like into virtuoso classical violin,i also remember a great take on the J Berlin album of Crossroads & believe the guitar solo was played at the end by a young Paul Gilbert?I have t buy that album again 2,its a fine work of art for sure.
As y asked me,whats your day job skipper?

Cuth - I'm in CAPS
We have had the technology to implement a replacement for the road-maintenance section of the gas tax without letting Big Brother ride shotgun for quite some time. They are called toll booths. They would only need to be used on freeways (the most expensive of roads to maintain). Counties are quite capable of handling their own roads through some other non-intrusive means.
YOU CAN'T PUT TOLL BOOTHS ON EVERY ENTRANCE OR EXIT OF THE FREEWAY SYSTEM. YOU HAVE THE COST OF INSTALLATION + MAINTENANCE + STAFFING. THE COUNTIES STILL, FOR THE MOST PART, GET THEIR FUNDING FROM THE STATE THROUGH THE GAS TAX. PLUS THIS WILL HELP OUT THE LOCAL JURISDICTIONS. I DON'Y KNOW ABOUT WHERE YOU ARE BUT THE CITY OF PORTLAND HAS A HORRIBLE ROAD SYSTEM DUE TO LACK OF FUNDING.
Yes, expensive such booths would be, but how expensive will it be to put a GPS into every car? Right, legislate them as mandatory in all new vehicles sold in Crapifornia (commentary on the legislature, not the state in general) or Oregon, and they are "free" to the consumers, right? Wrong! The cost for such mandates is alway passed onto the consumer from the manufacturer.
tHEY ARE WORKING WITH THE MANUFACTURERS. BUT HELL A GPS UNIT IS NOTHING IN THE PRICE OF A CAR.
This doesn't address retrofits, and I am guessing that you would see many people resisting buying new vehicles for that reason. In order to keep revenues level, the states would implement the (ahem) replacement tax with the promise of repealing the maintenance portion of the gas tax after total compliance can be forced. The rub is, what government willingly gives up its new fat from the trough after having a few years to grow used to the tase. Few and none.
i HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING ON THE RETROFITS. YOU WILL NEVER GET FULL COMPLIANCE BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LOVING CARS IN THIS COUNTRY. THERE WILL ALWAYS HAVE TO BE TWO SCALES.
I can't wait to get pulled over and charged with a felony some day for attempting do drive on the "freeway" with a non-compliant car. Land of the free, indeed.
DON'T KNOW IF IT WOULD GO THAT FAR BUT WHO KNOWS WHAT THE FUTURE WILL HOLD.

Hello to all! I feel privileged to have joined this group of fans and friends. I originally sent this message to the webmaster but was encouraged to post here instead. I am open to comments from anyone regarding this message.
Joe,
Greetings!! Glad to hear you're over your pneumonia
and back on tour.
I am a long-time fan and have most of your CD releases
and three of your live DVD releases. When I play one
of the live DVDs, my three-year old exclaims,
"JOE!!!!!" Both he and my eleven-month old really jam
and dance to "Surfing With The Alien" too.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to catch a live
show in Denver when you've come through town.
Hopefully next time.
I was wondering how the other guitarists on your G3
tours are selected. Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, John
Petrucci and others are excellent supporting
acts--each brings something unique to the stage. I
especially enjoyed Yngwie Malmsteen on the G3 Denver
DVD. I think you've chosen some great players that
were once pretty huge in bands or on their own. Other
guys I'm thinking about that I haven't heard from
in a while are Paul Gilbert, George Lynch, Michael Schenker (here in the states though), Gary Hoey, Neil
Schon (other than Journey), and I could list more I'm
sure.
I don't want to seem disrespectful because I know alot
of thought goes into lining these guys up with
everything else that is going on in their lives as
well as yours. And maybe it's easier for me to make
these suggestions since I have only seen the limited
DVD footage and not experienced a full-on,
balls-to-the-wall live show. I'll do my best to see
you next time and enjoy the spectacle first-hand.
Stay healthy and keep rockin'!!!
All my best,
Todd Grosenbach (Toddzilla)
