Mr. Joe sir,

Love the new album (well, the podcast I've heard so far anyway) -- it would be totally awesome to catch your Super Colossal Tour!

Don't forget your fans in the California Bay Area!!!

Crossing all my fingers that you might add a date at a venue in that area!

Hope to see yhou perform again soon!

yes cheese101 as a matter of fact i do like PORTLAND and RENO, i'd like to go to PORTLAND or RENO in april...i dont really know why i want to go to PORTLAND or RENO, i dunno i heard something about JOE SATRIANI going on tour and thought i heard somewhere that he WANTED to go to PORTLAND or RENO ; )

Bob

Big Hug to whoever is here at this time of the mornin!

Luvin ya all!

Hi Vijay - welcome to the site and I couldn't agree more...you could listen to a Joe song 1000 times and still luv it! I hope you get to see him one day :)

JOE - you will always be 100 foot tall to us!

kmittleman, yeah that's a cool idea. I don't know about anything guaranteed to have a signature, but you might get lucky like Guitarmiester and I did - I bought the "Red" poster from Joe's fanfire site and I was really pleasantly surprised to see, when it arrived, Joe's signature in silver marker!

It's only 10 dollars, and even if it's not signed it's still an awesome thing to have on the wall, especially for the kids to look at! Oh, and welcome to t2j!

satriella...cheers ,,thanks for asking..i am doing much better than ever before......thanks to all yu guys and yur prayers and best wishes,.....have a nice day...

Joe,

In your tour dates there are no Seattle/Tacoma shows listed, do you know roughly what month you will begin to hit the west coast?

"Holy Terror, Batman!" Superhero takes on Al-Qaeda

NEW YORK (AFP) - Bored with pitting his wits against the Joker and the Riddler, Batman is setting his sights on a more challenging target -- Osama bin Laden.

"Holy Terror, Batman!" an upcoming graphic novel from famed Batman writer Frank Miller, sees the caped crusader facing off against Al-Qaeda operatives who attack Gotham City.

Miller, who has already inked his way through 120 pages of the 200-page opus, told a recent comic book convention that the novel was an unashamed "piece of propaganda" in which Batman "kicks Al-Qaeda's ass."

The driving force behind the work, Miller said, was "an explosion from my gut reaction of what's happening now."

Holy Terror is "a reminder to people who seem to have forgotten who we're up against," he said in remarks posted on the entertainment website, IGN.com.

A 20-year comic book veteran, Miller became one of the best known names in the industry with the graphic novel "Dark Knight Returns," in which he brought Batman out of retirement.

He was also the creator of the graphic novel series "Sin City," which was turned into a hit movie of the same name last year directed by Miller, Robert Rodriguez, and Quentin Tarantino.

Miller said the use of comic book heroes for propaganda had an honourable tradition.

"Superman punched out Hitler. So did Captain America. That's one of the things they're there for," he said.

"These are our folk heroes," he added. "It just seems silly to chase around the Riddler when you've got Al-Qaeda out there."

962: Right-on man, I'm glad you like Gilbert Hotel!!.... It's one of my faves, and I love to sing along to the songs!!.... That album really showcases Paul's writing ability, and although he may purposely use some crazy lyrics (aka maybe I.... Should lay off the morphine), lmao!!.... Its amazing..Paul is such a classy kuul guy, and I hope he never stops making music....

BTW, thanks for the info on Paul's 15w Laney.... That is my dream bro, I love their sound, and someday soon!! :-) Oh, and hell.... Paul could play through a toy guitar and amp and still sound awesome, lol!!.... You should see him do whammy squeals without the whammy bar!! :-0

mikesb: You simply ROCK bro!!.... Thanks for that link!!....

mthead101: Happy Birthday!....

slanshroom: Wow man, I was wondering if Tony had an accompanyment, lol, he is truly a magical player!!.... I've seen Greg Howe play stuff like that, (the chords with his picking, and hammer on the notes on the lower 2 strings) but not like that, lol!!.... Thanks for the introduction, and I hope he makes a trip to the Far East!.... Stay kuul bro, Celtic music is spiritual!!....

Anyway...how are you now? Have things settled down a bit...haven't seen you here in a while...what at least two days haha...what'd ya think of my one and only joke then...hehehe don't bother to answer that! ahhhh it is so lovely to see your name pop up...I have a smile on my face now!

:)

26 days! : )

Mikey - aahhh Laney... I have an old Laney L100R combo..
sounds nice...
Laney give it to me after I did some sessions work for them as a demonstrator..

love to see you there bro... that'd be cool..

and that surprised me...

personally I've not heard one... and I'm not a big fan of floor units... I prefer rack... I guess that prejudice is why I've not tried it myself.... cos it looks like a toy..

my fave track is the one that starts with the Bach Clavier Prelude and then wanders into an insane gypsy trip..
tips hat to Slansh for that one... it's a master-stroke..
it's a brilliantly conceived and executed moment the sticks the middle finger up to both the shredder and extreme-jazzer conventions
it is both brave and whitty....

and it demonstrates that insanely technical playing can sound fun, no.. cheaky.. lol.. and does not have to be anal and indulgent...

pure genius...
