Delfino, you were probably meant to cook them then let them cool, to have them cold! Whoops! Seriously though mate, I'd go see the doctor.....you're better to be safe than sorry, right? Take it easy bud!
Suzie, no problemo :-)
LucySorets, I tend not to listen to preview clips when new albums come out.....I like to wait and have a nice surprise, and to hear an album all the way through so I can hear the new tracks in context. So in a shorter response, no, I've not heard "Glorius" yet! I can't wait though, this album is going to be awesome!
Also, I love your description of Searching, and thanks for the confirmation on the euro Vai tour, I knew it'd be after the summer!
OCPS470, I've not even seen a JSX yet.....there aren't any in the area of the UK that I live in. It's a kind of a trade off I think, cause most Ibanez stock gets sent to the south, so we've got plenty of that, but no JSX that I've seen. It's an ass cause I'd really like to give one a try, just out of idle curiosity really.
Re. the Legacy tones - yeah the lead channel is much like you described. It is very warm and smooth, and sustain and harmonic response are very good. This is all without bags of distortion....it just doesn't need it. It makes up for it with killer crunch. I seriously think you can get a fatter crunch tone out of a Legacy than with a Boogie Dual Rectifier, as long as you use your pickups right. The lead channel is really interesting cause you can do so much with it - I actually use the "Boost" setting on a Marshall Bluesbreaker pedal just to boost the signal going into the amp. It doesn't change the tone or add any drive or distortion, it's just like a few percent of pre-gain. If you combhine that with the lead channel's gain set to about '3', and use a neck-single coil with the tone wound right on you get a decent Clapton/Vaughan type dirty Strat sound. It's awesome. then switch straight to a bridge humbucker and it gets hotter and more sustainy without getting massively more gainy. It's cool....doing that makes it feel like you've increased the gain and volume to keep the note burning longer, but you haven't, it's just tonal response, and is very controllable.
The clean channel has a "presence" switch on it. The switch add's a little brightness and makes all the notes slightly tighter and more brittle, it puts a kind of snap to them, and I never use it. I find it a bit too harsh and unnatural, and I don't need it. Without it, the clean channel is actually very warm and has a wide, clear spread of tone and a lot of character, so I'd guess Vai is using the presence switch on his. Combine that with a split Evolution and you've got quite a thin sound. I shall have to record some clips some time.....I will get round to it, I'm not exactly sure whe, but it will be fairly soon! I'll let you know when I have!
TASTEY, sorry to hear about your guest pissing on everything! You could put a daiper on him! hehe, that would look so ridiculous!
Steven Wilde, it's interesting, the whole Frank sig thing reminds me a lot of the whole Jon Petrucci Ibanez/Music Man thing! hehe
happy 500 bro!
VFR, happy 777 ;-)

Clarky - Okay, sounds cool. I guess we'll need to meet up some time quite soon then...
Delfino - Happy belated birthday, man! Those guys at the Chinese restaurant sound like tools. Apart from anything, it's a little unwise to treat customers like that as they're unlikely to return... One more thing: Durka durka mohammed jihad!!!!! roflmao

civgeek,
I didn't notice the lack of sofistication in Medford, OR, I was so take by the natural beauty...if you come to NYC during the summer let me know...we'll hook up!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
cheese101,
I would have stuck around the Pacific Northwest, but when the leader of the band quit & left for Las Vegas to join a show band, and left us all high & dry I said..."hhmmm work at MacDonalds to survive, or go back to NY & start over"? 25 years later, and several bands later...here I am. It's sooo pretty there... God's country!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
DelfinoPie...Diabetes, or No Diabetes....love the hell out of him while he's here....lost both of my folks! Peace! Hope he has a long wonderful life....

Ok Joe, it's like this..........March 16th....When there was only 7 people up for the aftershow pass givaways, I thought cool in with a chance......Now.... 76 people....Well let me tell you I'm not as confident as I once was....So this is how we'lll do it....Give the word and my right arm is in the mail for you...but then, you probably don't need an extra arm, right!.....So I'm prepared to get a note from my mother to say I must get one....But then again "why do you want to go and listen to all that racket" is all I'll get from her so that seems pointless........Things are getting desprate.....I'm left with three options now......Option 1.."Bribe the man"....yeah I know a man of your stature's probably not suseptable to bribes.....Option 2..Suck you as much as I can..That right I already am......So I think I'll go with Option 3 this leaves me with fate........So in the hand of god I leave it...Shit I'm not even religious so that don't give me much hope.....Oh well I'm sure to love the show anyway..... My wife and I are counting down the days.....All the best and hope to see the blue text soon....

I used to be the same - very active, doing a lot of things, my job was standing and running around a lot - I ate everything and anything, all the time. No weight added.
Then I finished school and got a job at a computer - but still kept eating the same - and boom, weight just poured on.
Working on getting rid of it now - it is a process and a life style change (hum, kinda like the song lifestyle).

Sweet. I'm definitely going to submit a track for this T2J CD. I was gutted that I couldn't met the deadline last time around, and this has given the motivation I need to finish a whole bunch of my tracks that I started so long ago. Excellent!!!

Zenfish I believe that we have taken a very similar path in the past my friend, I am thankful that neither of us went too far along that path to change our ways and that we are both reformed today.
962 Thanks man :-), at my post rate it will be a while yet before the magic 1000. I'd like to be able to claim quality not quantity but what can I tell ya ? lmao ;-)
Cube Good news man, this might give me a push to submit a track..................... are you limiting the number of tracks or is the inclusion strictly subject to quality of the song/musicianship/recording ? Good idea to include vocal tracks as well, a couple of them would break up an instrumental CD quite nicely. Keep on keeping off (the fizzy stuff) man ;-)
Cuthbert Don't be such a defeatist / perfectionist man - lol. I've seen the pic of Joe signing your guitar, surely it has magical powers now ? ;-) But seriously man, why not submit a track ? You don't have to be Mr Shred to pull out a nice composition. I was very unsure of submitting last time but one of my favorite things about the last T2J CD is the range of abilities that it showed up. I'm pretty convinced that ability is not going to be the overiding factor in the judge's criteria either.
Alexandre Hey man! :-) I was just checking your site this morning. The Blister song is a real nice mellow tune. How did you get involved in that ?

You are welcome.
Fortunately all is going pretty well over here. It will be in the mid-30's today. So it is a heat wave today. Was in the single digits last week temperature wise.
How about for you - things going well?
