Do The Stu- I will watch ebay close. I am willing to pay the price! I picked up "The Beautiful Guitar" for $64.00!! I thought that was reasonable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Estrela- Thank you for the congrats. I have been working on some things I have of Joe. To start out I have a poster autographed by Joe. It is the front picture of "The Beautiful Guitar." I am going to frame that with all his CD inserts together. I have a Guitar Player mag. front cover from 1995 autographed. When Joe was in Milwaukee last Oct. I was one of the after show winners. I had my tickets autographed along with the after show passes. The night before I went to an in store appearance and got my Ibanez guitar signed. That was EVERY special to me because it was the first Ibanez I bought due to an interview I read in a guitar mag. with Joe and Kirk Hammett talking about there Ibanez guitars! I was kicked out of my residents because I spent the rent money on that guitar!! I was young, I survived!! It was well worth it! When I meet Joe in Oct. I was able to hand him my 2 CDS of guitar instrumentals and talked a little about my music and how much respect I have for him. It was such an honor to meet him!! I know I don't post alot but I want everyone to know I am a true fan of Joes. Because of him I keep going with my music to reach my goals.

I bought three CDs recently , Vai's new "multilayered menagerie of vignettes" ( somebody tell me what that means, please... LOL) is not bad. He's closer to Zappa on this one than ever before. I could do without "Firewall", but the rest are OK. I'd be exagerating if I said that "Lotus Feet " saves the CD, but without it, it would be a bit too weird as a whole. As for, the performances, Billy is great, Jeremy proves that he can shine too, especially on "Under It All", Steve the same old same old and since Tony is not mentioned, he must be a helluva Keyboard player too- somebody clear me up on this...
Priest's Angel Of Retribution is very good , there's a little bit of everything on it, so most Priest fans should find at lest a song they like. Bottom line, the songs are good ,strong, written in a more traditional (retro) style. Rob Halford is still No. 1. , he's "aged " voice is still spinetingling. I got the double sided disc, which has live footage and interview on the DVD side ( beside the 5.1 mix of the entire CD !) It was only $4 more , so it's worth it.
The third CD I bought is Derek Sherinian's Inertia. It's good but not great. I like the songs with Luke but not the ones with Zakk. Oh, well. Ironically it was the most expensive of the three.

SupaaDave Congratulations on your new daughter. I remember the day my daughter was born, just like yesterday. Now she is 11!
xtrchessreal Hope you find the sollution to the RFI. Cool about your EE degree. I wish I could finish college. Most of what I know I tought myself from reading books, 11th and 12 grade electronics class, and a semester at community college.
I used to work in a two-way radio shop, about 1 1/2 years (I actually got my commercial FCC General Radio Operator License about 2 years ago!), before starting my electrical apprenticeship. I could not find another job in the radio field without moving away, so it was be an electrician, or stay a security guard for $8 per hour.
What I meant about Audio being lower freq than RF was in reference to using a coil in line with the speakers or input wiring; both the audio signal from the guitar and the RF carrier are electromagnetic, the guitar audio being lower freq than the RF Carrier.
For a toroid coil, normally you can just wrap the individual wire through it several wraps, like a circular candycane. Wrapping both the signal and ground through the same toroid is bad practice, because of the canceling affect from parallel wires. if they use unshielded wires inside the amp for signal, either replace them with shielded wires, or wrap the one you think is signal through a toroid.
If you have two AC (alternating current) wires side-by-side, like a lamp cord or speaker cord, the opposing flows of electrical current tend to cancel each other because they are mirror images of each other, but have a subtractive quality (12 volts -12 volts for example).
Side by side is good for DC wiring however, because of the RF canceling qualities.
My 2 cents worth :>)

I have not forgotten you!
I finally bought "Pasion of the Christ" on DVD last night after the funeral service for little Sarah. I just watched it. It is just as good as it was in the theater. My 7 yr old was the one who wanted to watch! My favorite part is the end, when the angels roll back the stone, and what sounds like "Visions (Reprise)(Doxology)" from Petra "Not Of This World" starts playing. He stands up, you see through the hole in his hand, and he walks out of the tomb!!!
You would have loved the service saturday. It was very personal, the pastor had to choke back tears durring his little sermon.
My sister-in-law and her aunt took every still picture of her with family, and had a local studio put the pictures to music on a DVD. It was technicly a cheapo DVD in my opinion (amateurish editing), but the DVD was beautiful in its content. I thought I was gonna' start bawling when I heard little kids sings "Jesus Loves Me".
I did start to cry when the pastor got choked up....I had to try and be strong for everyone, including my brother-in-law/friend (we are high school friends, he also married my wifes sister!)
I have been thinking of writing a song for little Sarah, but I don't know if I have it in me. I have a battle between glory and duty, If you know what I mean. Part of me wants to be recognised for my wasting talent (yep, wasting since I have not played for like 11 years until recently). But, I want to play for God with all of my heart and only give Him the glory. He put His desire in my heart, but I snuffed it like a candle. I thought I would never get any better, and I was frustrated since I couldn't get lessons or jam with anyone (yet). I think He has rekindled the fire in me, and I am burning with desire to play again (thanks Joe for your music!). When I heard "Flying In A Blue Dream" around Nov, 2004, I felt like playing again. I believe God used Satch to spark that fire in me again. :<)

Hey all, sorry to sound so blue. I'm just not much good at writing songs. I have probaby written a total of three songs in my whole life, only one was finished. I lost the recording of it, though. I recorded it in 1987 on my stereo, with one guitar (looped a recording of the rythm while playing lead).
Maybe I will re-record that song, maybe re-compose it. It was kind of nice, just sort of mushy in a Monkees sort of way.
I have always been a sucker for power ballads, like "More than a Feeling" by Boston, "Honestly" from Stryper, "Babe" by Styx, "I remember You" by skid row, etc.
If I can get a better nut for my acoustic, I could do an acoustic rythm with electric accompanyment?

jazzzzzy, do you have all the songs off the Venus Isle album or have you hardly got any? Actually, it'd be easier if you just let me know which songs you've got and then I'll decide which album to buy you!
