Joe hi. I hope all is going well with you I just wanted to post my thoughts on your music-for what they're worth. I love your music but I'm not to thrilled with the musicians you've been working with. Yes they're more then capable of playing your music but I think you need to stretch and play with musicians who have more personality. Musicians that can add something of themselves to your music instead of just keeping the beat, or supporting your amazing guitar. Neil Peart on drums, pick a young hungry "up-and-coming" bassist, and lets see what happens.

Also, the encores for the G3 shows have been boring and very dissappointing. With Yngwie I would have loved to hear you all play "Trilogy Suite Op:5" as and encore. "Rockin In The Free World" was terrible! After Neil played the definative version on "Saturday Night Live" did you three really think there was any more that could be done with that song? How about a "Van Halen" song or "Led Zepplin" song or "Incubus" song or a "T-Ride" song(I'll bet not many have heard of T-Ride and would love to see you guys play their stuff for the encore) How about a "KIngs X" song?

Further, your look sucks. Sorry, it does, take your sun-glasses off when your on stage and dress flashier. I would also like to see you use those lovely hand painted guitars instead of the "Silver Surfer" ones. Your look needs updating.

What ever happens thanks for making music Joe. You have at times made me cry with your playing-Strange Beautiful Music describes it perfectly. All the best to you and those you love.

Satriella!!!

Yep, life can be one crazy traffic jam...

or what we Canadians call the "Don Valley Parking Lot" well, it's actually called the Don Valley Parkway, it's a highway in Toronto... but it's like a parking lot... cuz very little brains goes into driving in the big city... everyone has to drive and the cars exceed the size of the highway... so there are daily traffic jams because of it... it's funny really... cuz everyone is going nowhere fast but still continue to conjest the stretch of traffic lanes...

aw well...

at least I didn't have to pay for it... problem is I'm pretty much obligated to buy the Peavey JSX off of them now...

anyways, it's getting late, and I start my new job tommorow... evening shifts, not bad really, because it's floor cleaning and whatnot and it's peaceful when no one else is around but me and the floor machines...

wish me luck gang... I can't see anything worse going wrong, but nontheless, the way things have been going lately I'm gonna desperately need some good luck...

peace

satriella and phrydom....glad u liked em....they gave me a belly laugh or two....

Lager galore after lorry accident

Thousands of cans of lager disappeared after a lorry shed its load on a Scottish road, it has emerged. The vehicle jack-knifed as it swerved to avoid a deer on the A77 near Ballantrae in South Ayrshire.

Road maintenance firm Amey was called in to gather up the remaining cans of Miller lager from the road.

The incident recalled the film Whisky Galore, in which locals on a Scottish island seized thousands of cases of whisky from a wrecked ship.

A spokesman for brewers Scottish Courage said: "Miller has always been a popular beer in Scotland and if it falls off the back of a lorry people are bound to pick it up.

People were getting out of their cars to pick up the cans and that had caused a road block

Strathclyde Police spokeswoman "We are not sure whether the deer stopped the lorry deliberately but with the beer that went missing there will be a couple of stag parties in the area."

The accident took place shortly before midnight on Thursday.

The road was not cleared until about 1100 BST on Friday.

A spokeswoman for Strathclyde Police said one motorist had contacted the force to say that the road was littered with thousands of cans of lager.

She said: "We were getting calls saying people were getting out of their cars to pick up the cans and that had caused a road block."

Zenfish: Because he has created the very same work for hire situation he swore he'd never impose on anyone else, because he cannot write worth a damn, because he farms out his own work instead of doing it himself, because he tried to royally screw Neil Gaiman out of the rights to Miracleman, and because his ego is the size of China.
