Zen:Elixir dont get tone bro, they last 3 times as long but best with new Martins if you record, if however you just want the string to last, Elixir is the mark.I,ve yet to come across a sting that holds its tone for longer than 1 day played constantly & still sound good.Strings are a bit...frustrating....just as you get that sound you want to hang onto its gone.One day guitars will have lazer beams of light from the nut to the bridge & that lil prob will be history

Clarky:I had a guitar when i was 5 that made me sick, lol, lookin forward to hearing yer work bro

Hey Joe i just perchased a JS Chromeboy and i was wondering how do you do that sound effect that is in the middle of 'Time'??? and also if you come 2 UK next year could you come to the Cardiff International Arena in Wales as i havnt yet been to one of your gigs and would really like to??

Joe

So good to see you post on here. We all LOVE your work and we all appreciate your whole crew cos without them, we wouldn't get this site, see you in concert (not that I have yet, but I'm workin on it), or have your fantastic albums to listen to, so thank them all (i'm sure you will cos I hear your a nice guy!). Very much appreciation to you, for taking an interest in at least one or two of your fans, imagine if Jimmi H had written a note to you!!!! Mybe when you are old you will get the time to see all the wonderful messages for you on here, it's just a shame some of them go to waste, ah well that's the life of a fan I guess.

Satchfans - don't you just hate it when your son goes on your computer and the next thing you know, all you've got left is a wallpaper! - OK it was of Joe, but hey I'd only just got the internet - thanks son!! TAKE THIS AS A WARNING ALL OF YOU - good job I did have the time to order a new computer on ebay - phew - so here I am again and boy oh boy can't believe how posts have gone on here in a week.

cheese101 - would luv 2 see a photo of you in fancy dress, sounds great fun. I love going to work in fancy dress myself, just may go as a satch fan myself this year. (So far I've been Marge Simpson, a computer, a barbie doll and cinderella)

AussieRGman - loved slidin blues and crystal blues

SteeveeT - Harvest Ice is awesome really loved it - roll over G3 here comes SteeveeT!!!! Hope you make it big one day, I'll definately buy one of your albums..

Thinkin of the above two links I bet there are loads of great guitarists on this site. How about givin us all a taste of your wares?

MariMariSRV - B4 I lost the internet I had a chance to look at the photo gallery, there are lots of great pictures but I thought yours were the greatest, I used one as a wallpaper (hope you don't mind!) - I have to say if I was the jealous type I'd be jealous of you - but I'm not the jealous type, so I just glad so many satch fans have had the chance to be so close to Joe. With regards to favourite Joe songs, that is just an IMPOSSIBLE TASK, there is no way on earth I could pick one, every time I hear every track I think, "Oh, Now I love this one (next track) Oh, but this is great, (next Track) Oh, yeah but this is fantastic and so on until I've come to the end of all albums! Don't You? (OK I know you said The traveller was your favourite)

LucySorets - thanks for your lovely comments - I I think my first post like secret prayer was better - I'm still working on getting another copy of Seville 92.

Blue Moon - Liked the funny piccy cliccy - made me laugh

962 - You're lovely to everyone - that's fantastic - i hope you get the best 962 Porshe one day - you deserve it! Yes everyone has bad days and we all make mistakes and have our faults, if anyone thinks they have no faults - then there is their fault staring them in the face.

All in all JOE ROCKS, JOE ROCKS JOE ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!

Big hugs - love you if you love Joe.

Satriella xx :)

Joe: How are you on this beautiful day? Is there snow in Vancuver? I hope so. Cause that means that it will come to my town. Oh yeah. It snowed on the mountain like a foot and a half or so. I am getting very excited cause that is almost enough to snowboard. Are you going to do much snowboarding this winter? Yeah one of my friends said that her friend met you on time and said that you were mean and cared about nothing but your self, I have not met you yet and I know for a fact that you are not like that. I told her that her friend must have been high or something cause thats not right. You seem like one of the nicest people I could ever meet. I am looking forward to meeting you. I cant wait till I do meet you. Have a great day. Lots of love! :)

How is everyone on this beautiful day?

Peace out everyone!

Satriella, aww, thanks! haha, yeah I try my best....there's great value in being nice to people. Occasionally I'll completely flip out and go mental at someone, but usually 'cause they've done/said something ridiculously unfair to someone else! hehe.

blue buffalo...no cheating....lol...like a little tiny Robin...lmao

Young man, i heard you got a degree

I say young man, congratulations from Steve

I say young man, at last you are free

Of that full time school learning

Young man, pick up your guitar

I say young man, i'm sure you'll go far

I say young man, just stay out of the bar

And call all your friends round for jamming

Der der der der der der

It's fun to play with the Y-O-D-A

etc etc

Well done kiddo, and good luck

Steve.

CAPTAIN STEEVE,,Point taken,,I wasnt really bashing your opinion,,just the PENNY thing made it sound like u would spend very little if you had a chance to buy STEEVE T's cd...I guess that sounds like a double sided remark...yet reguardless of what (I) think of ones music I would NEVER throw pennies at it. It takes ALOT of work to make a song that sounds as good as STEEVE T'S,,Like u said,,,ur wife plays,,u should know,,I do respect your rights to judge music,,AS WE ALL HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS BRO,,I guess as a player of the 6 string device that causes many of us to go crazy,,i feel compassion.

Hi Joe. Hows recording going? How was your day? Nighty Nighty Joe. Lots of love.

Ya know webmaster Jon.....thanks soooo much for the new stuff you put up and the linkys and all...sooo great and we appreciate all your hard work....

....but......something broke the CHAT!!! :(( It's been down fer 2 days now and I can tell ya...there are fans/chatters out there...me included....that are prolly gnaahhing off their right leg about now in anxiety and anguish....

man something is wrong with the chat... *wink* wink*...web master Jon...

Hello JOe!!

So nice to see you drop by, we all have missed you...... it's always such a pleasure to hear from you!

I hope the recording is going smoothly, not too stressful. I was wondering why you chose Vancouver and not NYC or someother place in the states? Too many distractions? Just curious JOe. We are patiently awaiting your new Album..... and the next tour as well. I just got back from the UK, photographed 3 VAi shows. Excellent Adventure!

I still hope to become one of your Photographers (Steve's too!). I'll just keep trying. Any advice would be most helpful.

My best to you always.

Mari

"Gotta have joe" take it easy dude... nobody of it it is worth...
