Stevee T A guy named Eric,, Dave and I are the mods of the T2Jcd section.. we would love to have all t2j cd first and second to post on there. hope this helps ya?

OK I threw the FRETLASER on stage for Joe back in 2002 FL.. No it was not meant to improve his playing. HELLO... IT looks intense on the guitar because it projects laserlight onto the hands and fingertips and makes an intense HANDS ON FIRE effect. Thought he would try it out since Steve Via did the lasers on the hand thing a while back. You can see it at www.fretlord.com

Enjoy.

Michelle Thanks for your mail :-) I'll keep you posted ;-)

Cube You rock fer sure dude! I got my DM DVD last night.............wow............... I'd say that one of the things that really stands out for me is how cool his mellow work is and the 'new track' really bodes well for the next album. Just love the guy. Did I tell you that I'm off to a Paul Gilbert clinic on 18 August..............should be great. Nice forum btw, I'll post in there when I've got more time.

And more importantly VFR, is your bro getting used to the ego that accompanies the YJM strat.....

And are u getting used to him having that ego!!!!

Got the best news last week... i found out that my brother and his new wife (married the end of june) are going to have a baby (april-mayish) and i will be an aunt... YYYEEEAAAHHH!!! my brother is happy although he seems to be muttering under his breath "99% effective my ass!"

Hi everyone, I from Malaysia, it is nice to post this message to here. I hope that Mr Joe will not set me out, because my English is very poor, ha ha... I hope that there is some Joe's fans can be my friends.

Hi, I'm from the country of Belize in Central America. Not many people here know of Mr Satriani, and the closest thing I have to seeing him live is the G3 live in Denver DVD. I was wondering, in the song "searching", at the 8 min mark Joe plays a very very nice riff. Can anyone tell me how to produce that effect in the riff?

cuthbert1776: Thanks, Godfather. lol ;)

mikesb: I agree.....I miss Johnny Carson! Too bad he was on past my bed time. :-( btw: that was too funny about Clarky's eyeballs. LMAO!!

FablawyerSBM: Well Ronnie, that depends what your wishes are...... hehe!

Stacy: Hi, nice to see you around! Hope you are having a great summer.

All Hail Clarky!.... Clarky Maximus!..... Hail Clarky!!........Missed you Clarky. You have mail, that package I meant to send ages ago. Hope you like it!

Michelle: Looks like I'm not headed out to Lancaster this weekend. I'm probably going to a family reunion in NY along the Hudson River on Sunday. September is better anyway, this month is sooo damn busy! Yesterday was a suck ass day, 2 other people I know died. One had been one of my patients but he was also a fellow employee. (security guard) He died of pancreatic cancer. The other was one of the cashiers from the cafeteria ("cutie pie"). She was having a procedure to find gallstones (ERCP) and was under anesthesia and she "coded" went into cardiac arrest! She hasn't passed yet but will soon. She's on a ventilator and brain dead from lack of oxygen. It only takes minutes.......What a shame!! You never know....... Today Dana Reeves ( Christopher Reeve's widow) announced that she has lung cancer! I pray that God will help her fight it and win.

Hi Tune :)

Keniko, the only way to listen to country music is under the influence of alcohol. lol! Things are good here. I take my son to see ZZ Top tomorrow. Looking forward to it. It'll be our first time seeing them. It should rock!

Mari, congrats on the Godmother gig :) That's sweet. So sorry to hear about your two friends. Man that sucks. I heard about Dana Reeves. What a kick in the nuts that is man! So sad. I hope she has a 100% recovery! She seems like such a good soul.

Jazzmme, are you feeling as old as I am? lol! All the greats are retiring and in the FHOF, and they're only in their 40's. lol! Joe has posted lots. Click on the BLUE Joe Messages box above. Page three is his latest posts.

civgeek, glad the cat is okay :) Best wishes to sis in law too.

Tastey's in the house!!!

VFR, sorry for the novel. LOL! Good luck :)

Clarky, The name sounds a bit familiar...from a long time ago. I do remember muscular calves...

Julie, congrats to your bro and his wife!

Has anyone heard anything about a Mike Portnoy DVD called Prime Cuts by Mike Portnoy?

http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=6876231&style=music&cart=263734030

The one review said Mike had said it was released without his permission. Anybody got the scoop on that one? It only has a one star rating and if it isn't out with Mike's blessing it sounds kinda shady. I don't want to buy crap.

Anybody own Progressive Drum Concepts? That has a 5 star rating and sounds much better. Any good?

Enchuahua?!? That's great!

I find all motor racing disturbing, as most of the "action" is when a vehicle goes past another one, yet the highlights are always big stacks and people caning themselves.

Most other sports the highlights are what the "action" is. You don't see TV ads for football being guys landing on their ankles wrong or busting their legs, it's always big marks, great goals or awesome play.

Sure driving at high speed is a buzz, but watching it is different. You don't really see a lot of skill from the outside.

Ok!! I've been listening to the song "Searching" for the past 3 hours... Now, I must learn how to play this song! Does anyone have the tabs for this song? All the tabs that I've found is on a 7 string guitar. Does Joe actually play this on a 7 string? Also, I'm thinking of getting the ZOOM 707 II multieffects pedal. I want to experiment with different sounds so as to add a new dimension to my playing. Do you guys think this device would actually improve playing? http://www.instrumentpro.com/P-ZOO7072?source=froogle Check out the pedal here. I want to get something good and worthwhile. Any other suggestions on other good multieffect pedals out there?
