Rob310...the JS2 PRM has a phase switch....it really adds a glassier sound to the front pick-up if the coil tap is pulled ...I used that setting primarily on this tune...if you what to hear the effect it has....

Harvest Ice

js1200js1000.....life does have a habit of happening....lol

slanshroom...long term plans are wonderful things...pursuing them is even nicer....keep us in the loop on your progess with the studio

Satriella - lol, yes you are very right! I think nice was an understatement but i reckon 962 knows what i mean!

962 - well i'm impressed and quite surprised! I think last time i was around here you hadn't had anything recorded or very little so to see so much work on there is great! It does sound very professional as well - what you using for recording?

High School Hero - The amazing story of an autistic basketball player who made the most of a big break.

Good stuff!!!

Rob310...yes, I called DiMarzio yesterday as a matter of fact...(looks Joe replaced one in is JS2 PRM bridge position in the vid), and DiMarzio say's they should be shipped to stores mid-March...Mo'Jo should be really nice...I'll start by trying 1 in my JS100 see how it changes things...

musicperson...welcome...

peaceandguitars - No I don't think anyone does :-) but I think we would all be worried if we didn't see his name at least...he is a very regular poster! yay good to seee you chatting !

hmmmm comments on drugs...all valid points...there have been a lot of great songs come out of drugs...there are a lot of things to consider...as with any prescribed drug or alcohol...the effect they have is very individual to the person taking the drug....I used to do a lot of different drugs...but I had a "good teacher" who knew limits and when to and not to take certain ones and I was sensible enough not to take really addictive ones.. well hard drugs that is...I was addicted to tobacco i have to admit...but not any more! i have to admit to trying heroin, but only the once and I had vowed to only do it once from the start no matter how it made me feel...
Having said that if you don't like it then no I don't think you should mix with people who do cos it is gonna cause unease...even if they are in your band...I haven't done drugs for a lot of years now and I don't mix with those who do...I wouldn't condemn them or anything and I wouldn't advise anyone to take them or smoke or drink for that matter...they are all as bad as each other! And I have lost, ie they died, quite a few friends to drugs in the past...and I also see the long term effects of those I used to hang with who are still doing that kind of thing and its not pretty!.....anyway I am glad that I live a much healthier life now cos it really shows..but at the same time to be honest I don't think I suffered any particular bad effects from when I did do them...though I do have a bad memory...but I think thats just me.....anyway that is my two pence worth!

962 - thought so :-)...oh, how is more than words coming along? the tune...not the words, obviously if you get my drift. So you haven't got lyrics to Silver Rain, Hammered, Eye of Ra, Revolve, Time Boogie, Red square, Airhead, Powerhouse...ummmm oh struggling now...its that memory loss I was talking about...anyway you haven't got lyrics to all your golden oldies then?

Ollyno1uk - Wow April 2 2005, you bin gone almost a year!Hey if we do end up at the same gig together 962 can introduce me to you then...actually he will have to introduce himself as well come to think of it, hehe, as I only have a rough idea of what he looks like...I will recognise him if he is laying on the floor with a hat over his face though....you are going to the London gig if joe comes i take it? I am determined to get there...never seen him before but I have been a fan for about 10 years or so.

OK that's enough waffle for one night me thinks!

Take care all

Oh I'm back just remembered 2 more things

1. I only discovered by accident a couple of days ago that messages from people who have looked at my pictures on Photoclick were in my junk mail box...and they only stay in there for 5 days...so if any of you posted me a message and I didn't reply that's cos I didn't see it, I've now lost it and I'm very sorry about that!

2. In my line of work for BA we see names from all over the world...a couple that have made us chuckle in the office are
Mun Chan Chew
Ty Ping Wong

hmmmm no laughs...well maybe you had to be in the office at the time!

OK - back again last time...I promise

peaceandguitars - I think you already said that...but good to see that you are determined...I feel the same about Bungy Jumping ...I never have done one and I never will! hehe

js1200js1000 - Yep you right there...drugs are definately not cool! They can kill you and mess you up most times...same as alcohol or cigarettes!

Robbie Williams got me beat....flip! I hate it when I work hard and they don't look like the person I am doing...so that's Joe and Robbie now...grrrrrr

Night Night...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hello All T2J ers PLz welcome the newcomer TULSACHOPS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

...years bring wisdom and I still have the chops!!!

Stevee T-

I love the IB JS coil taps! Ice Harvest cooks. BTW, What HAS happened to Richie Blackmore? Check out the old DP album 'Burn' from '74 or so... so worth it... I heard he (RB) has been playing minstrel music with his wife. Damn, I miss his guitar licks! AND Go with the ProTools Digi2, you won't be sorry... best package going!

Do The Stu-

How was Aerosmith and Lenny? I had front row to 1975 Aerosmith on their Rocks tour. We were real assholes and passed out and lit sparklers (fireworks) during the encore. Check out the grooves in Rats In The Cellar and Combination (that was back when Joe Perry was breaking ground)

JS1200/JS1000-

Mail me a Molson Golden, EH? Take off, EH? Hoser!

Peace&Guitars-

Pussycat Dolls... you need time management skills... ;-) well if they ref Jimi they can't be all bad eye candy. Hendrix is God.

Satriella-

Thanks for making me feel welcome! You are SUPE$R! How bout a punk lyric:

'waste another year flies by...waste a night or two... you taught me how to live in the streets of shame where you've lost your dreams in the rain... there's no sign of hope... the stems and seeds of the last of the dope'

SATCH SONG OF THE DAY:

IF -Joe Satriani (Red CD)

Check it out... the break is ULTRA ULTRA ULTRA FUNK!!!!

Joe your so great, I really dont know what id do without you!

Hello JOE and everyone.

Found out my wife Wanda has breast cancer.......... Any one that has attended the last 8 PORTLAND shows might remember a beautiful tall blond that was always close to the front, right in front of Joe......

She goes under the knife on Tuesday morning for a unilateral mastectomy and I am asking every one and especially JOE and Un-listers to send some positive vibes this way.

All this has happened so fast, she discovered the lump back on the 10th........ Unknown what the followup is going to be, it just depends on what they find when they get in there. She is being so brave and focused and in full attack mode......

Take care all and I thank you in advance for all your support.

Here is the link..........

TEXT

THE FIREMAN I´m sending the most healthy vibes for you wife, very positive vibes in your way. Sorry about the news :-(. Let us know about the situation when you can.

Warm regards for you!!!!

Hello friends, talk to you later.

Have a good night

Ken and Wanda,my most fervent thoughts and prayers are going out to you two at this time in your lives...things have come a long way in the treatment of breast cancer. I believe with all my heart in the power of prayer and positive thinking, and it sounds like you both are on that path. Wanda, you are a beautiful and STRONG woman and you have a wonderful husband at your side. Ken, I know you adore your wife and will be there for her.

Joe....you are so amazing, you dont even know how amazing you are to me I LOVE YOU MAN!!!

JS1200/JS1000-

Moose piss is a compliment... (I wuz thinking cat piss) I think there are like 2 (two) good American Brews, Sierra Nevada and Samuel Adams. Actually, one of my life's ambitions is to join you in the great white north as a brewmeister. Ontario is my favorite province. Toronto rocks. Cheers! (EH!)

Cuthbert-

LOS ANGELES (Feb. 25) - Don Knotts, who kept generations of TV audiences laughing as bumbling Deputy Barney Fife on "The Andy Griffith Show" and would-be swinger landlord Ralph Furley on "Three's Company," has died. He was 81.
