Zenfish...you'll have email shortly....

OCPS470...(like dck said) you are a great player...you should have no problem with the gig...can you use charts on stage?

Keniko...email your postage addy to me at steve@stevetrott.com, and I'll send one out to you...just set a bunch out this morning....thanks for asking!

aussieRGman...sorry to hear of the family probs....love is the answer...

Michelle...Happy Anniversary!!!

cuthbert1776...nice idea bout the reserved t2j seats at in store appearances....how could Joe arrange to have them set aside...ask for a headcount from us in advance?

OCPS - OK, here's the deal: o7 and dim7 both mean full diminished seventh chords (ie. 1, b3, b5, bb7 - NOT 6); m7b5 and a "o" crossed out both mean half diminshed (ie. 1, b3, b5, b7); dim and "o" both mean diiminished triad (ie. 1, b3, b5). If you see just dim or "o" you shouldn't assume either full or half diminshed, particularly if comping, since the extensions used by the melody/solo instruments will imply either one, the other, or both - if you decide on what to play other than the basic triad, you'll limit the harmonic possiblites.

Joe, Its the 4th message Im posting here for you to read. I hope that youll come to Israel. we dont get many good gigs these days... Ive seen that someone else have sent you a message about Egipt. is there any chance that youll have a tour in the middle east and include Israel in that tuor?

Awww, thanks chee!! Thanks Ken & Steve :)

Dave and I are celebrating our 18th anniversary today. We've been together for 23 years :-) It's a beautiful day outside too, just like it was on our wedding day. It's about 64 degrees and sunny. That's a perfect November day here in PA.

SOTD - AWM, AWY

still 500+ posts behind.

962 - Wow and more Wow!!!! I knew there was loads of talent here, obviously not too many who are brave enough to show their wares, but i am so glad that you have - great stuff - love The Jester and Silver Rain, but unfortunately being hastled by teenage son, ah their wonderful things to av kids but right now, i want to listen to more of your stuff it's great.....really -----I knew you wouldn't let me down ...thanks for the explanation of how you name tracks.

SteveeT - Typical, the one album I haven't got!!!! I guess that will have to be changed.

I have a bass guitarist son waiting now so to the rest - keep rockin, cool idea Zenfish by the way.

\m/(~_~)\m/

Satriella- Nice to see someone so enthusiastic- welcome to the site btw!

SteveeT: thanks man! Yes...thank God I can use the charts on stage haha!

VFR, haha, I'm glad someone appreciated it! no man, I never saw the MS Dog, but I'm always too busy frantically looking for the flash animated crosshair so I can shoot the Office Assistant in the face.....man that thing irritates the hell outta me! hehe. It looks like you're trying to write a suicide note! Would you like me to (i)Retrieve recipient's names from your MS Outlook Adress Book (ii)Write a statement to the police saying that nobody should be held responsible (iii)Insert a template for your will or (iv)Piss off and let you hang yourself in peace?

Oh there's so much mileage in this! hahaha j/k

Hi Joe,

How do you feel to be such an ispiration to so many great people who have picked up a guitar cos of you! Do you listen to the links on here, if you don't your missin out - thanks for all you do ----- will thank you personally one day!!!!!

962 - Update on last message - Love Time Boogie (Oh I wonder where you got the idea for that title, hmmm let me think????) Seriously it's a lot of fun & Jugglin Karma you can certainly here joes influence in your vibes - that is no bad thing - in fact like joes, every time I hear a new one I think, "Yeah, this is great, (next tune) Yeah, no this is great (next tune) wait, this is great etc etc. You should go on tour - How about Sudbury as a start?! (OK I'm being cheeky, that's where I live) Oh, but if you do bring Satch with you?!!!!

Suzie - Thanks for the welcome, I'm sure I am no more enthusiastic than anyone else - one things for sure, I can't read music and i cant play guitar cos of it, although Flea (Red Hot Chillies) gets away with it. but hey, I'm happy listening to all the talented ones!! Do you play?

Hi Joe, just stopppin' by to see any new posts from you, I just got the new Boss GT8 and play along with it with a customized JS100 guitar, i put a FRED and a PAF PRO to it, but just cant get that killer sound from you, do installing the Hi Pass Filter for the the Pick-ups will help me to solve the problem or i need to get the two capacitors for the knobs?, hope to get an answer from you and I wish you guys come soon to play in MEXICO CITY.

Satriella- yes I do play guitar, but I am by no means a shredder! I accompany myself, and do a bit of slide guitar and rhythm (lately!) I play piano too (mainly baroque and classical stuff) which I love- also my husband and I do duo stuff (voice and guitar) - all Renaissance material, John Dowland etc.

Michelle...a good long relationship should be celebrated, congrats!!

Hey Joe!!!

chelly, how was dinner? I raised my chicken fajita in toast to you and Dave this evening... :)

Heya Joe....wondering if you'd consider playing Home on your next tour...such a beautiful song, with a great bass line and drums...Jeff and Matt would enjoy playing it I bet! I hafta say...listened to the self-titled album today and that song just suddenly struck my heart. I had tears flowing down my face without even realizing it until my friend asked me what was going on...soul-touching, that one...any chance of hearing it out there next year?

And the saga continues

Once again we are looking for a geetar player. So if any of you live in P-town and want to play geetar with me and the gang drop me a line.

Stevee, it should, and it will be ;-)

Chester chee-toes, I also listened to the self titled cd today. I figgered I would play something nice for Davey in the car instead of my usual rotation of Pantera, Godsmack, Metallica, Rob Zombie, and Nine Inch Nails. lol! Every time I hear Joe's self titled cd, I get in such an uplifting mood. It touches my soul and really connects with me. The first time I listened to The Beautiful Guitar, I had tears running down my face for half the damn thing. It's just so...beautiful!! LOL!! Dinner was good, and whaddya know, the kids each had plans, so we got to go out ALONE!! lol! It was wunnerful good!

dakook...looks like a donnie to me too, but i've never seen this one before...?

michelle...very lucky...you are...
