Webmaster, Joe and to ALL:

Wondering if there will be autographed versions of the new G3 available either from Fanfire, Sony or from here?

I loved having my last few releases (Satriani and G3) autographed.

Zinc..... When Joe's new CD is released....I'm hopin' for another meet - n - greet tour which I thought was a great idea on Joe's part and proved to be very successful. If that goes down we can all get the G3 DVD signed. That would be great. I got a pre- release signed ITLIS CD from Sony. When I met Joe at the meet - n - greet I brought it with me and he told me he had signed something like 500 of those CD's.

I hear what you are saying and I agree - but with the last G3 - all 3 members signed the CDs and DVDs - it is really cool. Just trying to keep the collection going.

Otherwise - I will have to try to make it to a meet and greet - if I have the time.

Joe: Hello buddy how are you today? Hope you are good.

MarimariSRV: Hey thanks, that is a very usefull piece of info.

962: Hey man thanks, I thouhgt that it was better to. It is also true, I gotta have him. You did not really make me change my nickname. I thought about the Elvis thing and you were right.

Gotta Have Joe...... If Joe can't play @ your wedding for some reason. I'll play for 10k. I would be honored....Deal? LOL.....

Last wishes

Ralph returns from the doctor and tells his wife that the doctor has told him he has only 24 hours to live. Given this prognosis, Ralph asks his wife for sex. Naturally, she agrees, and they make love.

About six hours later, the husband goes to his wife and says, "Honey, you know I now have only 18 hours to live. Could we please do it one more time?" Of course, the wife agrees and they do it again.

Later, as the man gets into bed, he looks at his watch and realizes he now has only 8 hours left. He touches his wife's shoulder and asks, "Honey, please .. just one more time before I die ?" she says, "Of course, dear."

And they make love for the third time.

After this session, the wife rolls over & falls asleep. Ralph, however worried about his impending death, tosses & turns until he's down to 4 more hours.

He taps his wife, who rouses. "Honey, I have only 4 more hours. Do you think we could.....?"

The Confession

An elderly Italian man who lived on the outskirts of Monte Carlo went to the local church for confession.

When the priest slid open the panel in the confessional, the man said, "Father .. during World War II, a beautiful woman knocked on my door and asked me to hide her from the enemy. So I hid her in my attic."

The priest replied, "That was a wonderful thing you did, my son! And you have no need to confess that."

"It's worse than that, Father. She started to repay me with sexual favors."

The priest said, "By doing that, you were both in great danger. However, two people under those circumstances can be very tempted to act that way. But if you are truly sorry for your actions, you are indeed forgiven."

"Thank you, Father. That's a great load off my mind. But I do have one more question .."

"And what is that?" asked the priest.

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily Iraq briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Clarky:Golf......19th hole!!!!!.......Think i,ll stick to The Speckled Hen & watch from the bar window as y drive another into the pond,lmao,good luck in the final mix bro,really lookin forward t hearing it

Zenfish:The difference with SRV & Yngwie for me is SRV touched the dead nerve in normal people & asked them subtlety to wake up & feel.All walks of life listen & love his music,Yngwie is more aggressive, a forced good food almost.A feast for guitarists.

Roy - You should go to the gig. Ask Mr. Vai if he liked your CD personally - bring another with you. Tony MacAlpine also has one. He asked me about you.

Keniko, no you didn't mislead me.....athough you're almost transcribing, you're just not getting as far as the "Scribing" part. I actually do thoroughly recommend writing down a tune or two yourself.....tabbing out other people's stuff can be quite enlightening, 'cause it's one of the purest ways of breaking the tune down to it's mathematical structure. Writing in the expression and then playing it back takes on a different feel! It's cool.

Maybe I'm suggesting this 'cause I want you to tab out the House Full of Bullets solo so I don't have to?! haha, just kidding.

Interesting to read your take on where guitarists are coming from.

However, I prefer the reaction I got from a 50 odd year old Chief Engineer on my last ship. He was a bit of an old fashioned character and I thought it would be amusing to see his reaction to a bit of Joe blasting out.

My flabber was well and truly gasted when he turned to me and said 'Captain, this is beautiful, this man sings with his guitar'.

Say no more! From a non players point of view anyway!

Keep rocking,
