climber...yes...it was nice to see them stretch out in the NAMM cast...I think it was the first time I've heard Joe say "shit"...which was refreshing...lol

marimariSRV...if you don't mind me asking...what's an roundtrip airfare to Boca goin for these days ($90- $120ish)...considering the trip.....if Platinum for NYC, or Boston is an absolute no go...

Mthead101.......The Randy Rhoads Issue was before Joes .

I hope you can stil lfind it , but one word of caution , most of the Cd-Roms have glitch's in them . I hope you get one that works . Mine kept freezeing up on the Video . The Audio was fine.

Hey Joe, My name is Jake, I am 13 years old and i am a great fan of yours. I play guitar, and i at the moment am learing Surfing With The Alien,Midnight and Always With Me Always With You. I have masterd the tapping on Always With Me And Always With You and Midnight

Hey Joe,

I was so looking forward to taking my 15 year old son Jim to see your show in Denver that I bought the $250 premium package seating. He and I are both avid fans and thanks to you after seeing the G3 Show in Chicago the last time around, he grabbed a guitar and bass guitar and hasn't stopped playing since.

Unfortunately, I just went to the Ogden Theater's website and they are stating that it is a 21 and over only show. IS THIS TRUE!?

If at all possible, can you somehow get this changed? You are doing a disservice to all the up and coming guitar players who envy not only you, but Eric, Steve, Yngwie and others.

Thanks for listening,

Rob, and anyone else who wants to buy Platinum tix....

When you click on the link on the ROAD section of this site for tickets, it takes you directly to the ticket vendor. BUT you have to scroll sideways, to the right....use the bottom scroll bar and you'll see links that say BUY for each of the shows that he has these special packages for. The Boca show is there, I just checked and could have bought tix in row 2!!!!

tuvster, the idea is to let the side of your thumb veeerrryyy lightly brush the string as it follows the pick. I let my first finger brush it as well, so the fingernail leads, the pick follows, then the thumb follows that. It means holding the pick extremely close to it's tip and it winds up with you almost pinching the string, hence the name.

You just need to spend ages practicing it and trying to get the harmonic out......they'll get clearer and clearer and then you'll be able to do it all the time (if you want to!).

:)

Startin to cheer up

back with yaz soon

drawing is helpin me get back to reality...and a little help from my friends above

Thank you!!

Okay... I've seen a million (well, not really...) posts from people asking about tour dates. What's posted on the site obviously isn't the complete schedule. There are only about 12 dates listed, and Joe played about 30 North America shows on the ITLIS? tour. He's also obviously not going to have a tour where he leaves out the west coast. It might be on a separate leg like it was last time around, but we'll still get some shows out here... Everyone needs to just hold tight and wait for more announcements. ;-)

MARI- You are an angel- speak to you later- :) p.s. SONYSTORE.COM SUCK!!!!!!!!

DO THE STU- Ok, I know you were only talking about the USA gigs...but over here in England we don't often get to see Joe... so would hate to miss the chance, so am keen to know when the dates will be. People are bound to be excited about it- remember you've met Joe, many of us out here haven't, or are ever likely to...?

Hey guys, i'm new, but dinners ready, haha, so i'll check y'all later.

Hey Joe, I was just wondering if there's going to be a G3 tour in the U.S. in 2007 'cause that's when I graduate from High School and my parents say that my graduation gift can be to fly anywhere (in the U.S.) and see whoever I want in concert (I guess all the loud music I play actually payed off, 'cause they know how much I love music!). And if I could see any concert, it'd be a G3 with you, Steve, and someone else!

962: I think LaRue will be very similar to Stu...he has nice punchy clear tone, and great chops and killer pocket. Besides, I have to root for him, because he teaches bass 15 minutes from my house haha! Bet you didn't know that! haha!

Guitarmeister...48th St. has it all.....Manny's, Rudy's & Sam Ash...if they don't have it there.....they're all across the street from each other..................

Can't wait for the Super Colossal tour to hit Buffalo!!! Can we get Motorcycle Driver just this once??

Guitarmiester a few places that are cool... Wax Museum...i think its 42nd street ESPN sport zone restaurant bar Central Parks Strawberry Fields if its nice out BB Kings Blues Cafe...ive heard its awesome

Stevee T Thanks for the help. I have a few amps I'd really like to try out, Peavey 5150 or 6505, any Laney amps, and a few others. I got lucky looking for Guitar Center one time (not in NY), I was driving around trying to find Guitar Center, I found one but it wasn't the one I was looking for (the one I was looking for and at before is HUGE). Wasn't a problem though, right across the parking lot was a Sam Ash! Prices were great in both stores, due to them having to compete (they aren't even across the street, down the street from one another, but across the parking lot!)

-Paul Gilbert is killing me!!!! I'm working on too many songs at once, but Gilbert, what do i need to say. There's so much going on in BRO, I've got about 40 seconds of the song down, but with the counter guitar in the mix makes it 10 times harder! I thought I'd be having more trouble with Scarified than BRO!

Guitarmiester: Where can I hear VAi playing "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" & "Beethoven's 5th"? sounds wicked good to me!

gotta have Joe: Glad to know I'm not the only one that things like that happens to. whew what a relief! ;-D How are you feeling Kayla? Better I hope!

Ovation: Mikeysan, that was so beautiful....seeing SRV & Albert King! I've never seen them together before. There were some other very kuul gems on that link. Where do you find these treasures?!! I'm so amazed

Cheese101: How's it going Traci? What's the word on the job situation? I haven't talked to you in a while....I hope you are doing well sweetie.

Michelle: Thanks for the email, got it! Yes, I was listening to YJM"s "Attack" CD....totally rockin in Toshi ! LOL It was snurring here earlier...the sun was out and it was snowing like a blizzard, the wind was so bad! I don't like this cold weather at all! Will this be your 1st trip to see M-I-C-K-E-Y? How long you going for? FLorida right, not Cali.

SteveeT: Yes, where is Stacey aka Tastey?! Yoohoo! hello Stacey! I think you mentioned her recently.....I got a round trip, non-stop to Ft Lauderdale for 218 will all the taxes on AirTrans. I'm flying out fri and returning Monday so what days you fly and where you fly out from make a difference. I didn't look around because for my sister's wedding in FLa they had the cheapest NON-STOP flights. I'm not going to spend hours in the airport to save a few bucks....it's just not worth my time. I've spent many, many hours in airports. "No more, no more"... No connecting flights for me. ;-))

Suzie2000: Why thank you sweetie! ;-)) Cheers *raises glass of Cabernet*

Rob310: I got my 1st row ticket Thursday night from here.........where it says "click here" it takes you through similar to TM with typing in the funky word etc....I checked it again today, it works fine. I hope you make out well. See you at the show!!

Alexandre: Wow! Thanks Alex for posting the Blister video clip, I will check it out. I can't wait!! Kisses dear friend! ;-)) ~Sea Eyes~~
