And, I do belive You! About seeing Joe, Thank You for the encouragment You Are Such A blessing! :-)......................... .........BIG BAD MOON- Yeah, Thank's, The mixing is going ok, Threw a lot of stuff out. Hearing it back, and putting it up with other stuff, I heard. I redid, A Lot of Thing's! Thank's for asking! Hope Your doing well!..........................962- Simon, Wow! Dude, Thank's for the way cool Photo's! Very Impressive, Thank's for sharing! Yeah, ya' know all of My Guitar's, are all very not stock. I gotta' tell ya' after Xperiancing the "powersound's" All they wat to the "evolution's, and Emg-Hz's, and everything else, I found the sweetes tone, That sound's awesome through A "cheap" set-up, such as I have.

EmgHZ, in the bridge, and The hottest Seymour duncans in the kneck-That was it! No need for a 1000 pick=up's or All one of A "HOT" pick-up, but the flavor of the 2 Very sweet, indeed! Thank's again, Hope Your having a great Day! And thank's for the cool Suggestion! for My soft head! :-)............. ..................Supa'Dave, Guiatrmeister, Dito. It's a good thing You dont live here in the East Bay! "RAP CRAP" is all they play, And it is as Irratiting as anything! I understand exactly what your saying! Let me tell You from a wise sort- There are million's who LOVE to be insulted! And abused, and Laughed at! And those thing's sell! BIG!! look at the very stupid TV shows played around Peoples living rooms. Look at who's winnning Grammy, By the handfull-Literealy. It will keep growing to! "Darkness" Came out because they said almost word for word, what You said You would lke to do with Your band.

It dosen't end. The main quest is to Find Your audience. And embrace that. Which is hard to do, But Possible, Fibnding audiences that is.

Also, Alway's Love what You enjoy, once that stop's. Then The Musical magic drops out, and there is no reinforcment.

Maybe just take a break, A breather, Or even A Hitus.But Dont Lose The Heart of what You enjoy, Because a few folk's have different musical "tastes"

Hang in thre My freind, The Audieance s Listening!

Take care, God Bless,

And alway's never give up on Any dream!

A Conversation of Waves

by Derek Lin

There was once a small wave who was unhappy. "I'm so miserable," it moaned. "The other waves are big and powerful, while I'm so little and weak. Why is life so unfair?" Another wave passing by heard the small wave and decided to stop by. "You only think so because you haven't seen your own 'original nature' clearly. You think you're a wave and you think you're suffering. In reality you are neither."

"What?" The small wave was surprised. "I'm not a wave? But it's obvious I'm a wave! I've got my crest, see? And there's my wake, little as it is. What do you mean I'm not a wave?"

"This thing you call 'wave' is merely a temporary form you assume for a short time. You're really just water! When you understand completely that this is your fundamental nature, you will no longer be confused about being a wave, and you will be free of your misery."

"If I'm water, what about you?"

"I'm water too. I'm temporarily assuming the form of a wave somewhat larger than you, but that doesn't change my fundamental essence - water! I'm you and you're me. We're part of a greater self."

PEACE...LOVE...KINDNESS...

STevee T! You are welcome! About warm up...........ppl liked our tunes. About knocking out............we are far from it. I'm interesting how many languages do you speak............ about your tunes..........I think you will show to everybody who is THE BOSS at Jemfest. LoL I'm also ineresting in........ your tunes were written only by yourself? I mean piano, drums and other recordings you do by yourself? Have you already heard Steve Vai's new album?

suzie2000..i was sceptical at first when i heard petrucci's album would have no keyboards, but the samples have made me consider buying it. which is what they're designed to do. i need to hear 2 or 3 full tracks to decide really.

962..i got shed loads of spare time, it just the lack of people to teach thats the problem ;) but as the summer aproaches (we hope), the karting should get busier and therefore more money than the winter months.

Thankyou everyone for your good wishes! It is a personal goal fulfilled. That was so kind of you all! Yes silentShady, celebrate = get pissed! LOL:-)

hi everyone!

suzie: well done on the grade 8 piano- kinda makes me feel small as a mere grade 3 violin (oh well, you've gotta start somewhere!). It's a real achievement- CONGRATS.

--------------------------------

I hope everyone is enjoying easter.
