CROW Apology accepted bro. No need to lay out all those recipes dude I eat it raw off the street. I like wild boar better though because you have to work hard for a meal. COSMIC APE can verify that! Hunting can make you very hungry. I had a BAD day yesterday and I didnt mean to take it out on you. Sorry.

Hi, I´m a little guitarrist from Brazil. I just want to say, it´s very nice your sound! Please, come to Brazil more times! I never see you here, we need to learn many things with you! Sorry about my english.

O man O man..... Mr. Satriani; you are the greatest. I still remember the day when I bought your "Surfing With the Alien" without even knowing who you actually were. Man, as the first track came on (Surfing With the Alien), I was instantly hooked. Then I listened to this CD and I found out that You (Satch) was not a regular guitarist. In fact, you were an influence to me since the first day. To this day, you remain a great influence to me. I also like the way that you are able to express yourself on the guitar. I know how to play some of your songs, but I don't play any one artist's music constantly. I feel that the true gift of music is not how fast you can sweep or how well you play another artist's song; but how one can express him or herself through music. I think there is no better feeling than being able to compose a song that matches your direct emotions. Nonetheless, I still enjoy your music and I love how your music tells stories. Also, I get a euphoric reaction everytime I hear that whammy bar chops on the sub-verses of "Surfing With the Alien." Man that was great. I don't know about other people, but I like the chord changes on your songs also. One of my favorite moody songs is your "Crushing Day." I like the main guitar part and how the climax builds to the intro solo again. O man, it is great. Thanx for the tunes. I am delighted that I learned the guitar. I have picked up the guitar at the age of 14, just like you. I don't know how I found the guitar. Maybe it found me. Well, I am a self taught guitarist. First I used my perfect pitch to tab out some of your songs and some Steve Vai tunes. In fact, the first song that I tabbed out was your "Starry Night" that I saw on ur G3 Denver DVD. It was hard because I played only acoustic guitar for a year. So I had to bend on heavier strings for ur songs too. Then, I received my electric guitar that I customized heavily. First, I was into blues; especially Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix. So I raised my action on the guitar and strung it with 13 gauge strings. I then learned songs on it and my fingers soon felt the pain. I enjoyed that pain though. I loved how I could express my emotions through composing. After the 1st year of my guitar playing, I was able to record on my Mac Computer and release my demo. I handed out copies to people and I was able to gain great recognition. I was delighted by that reaction. Soon, I plan to start gigging and play at small places. I also want to meet you one day and see you perform live in person. I still await that day.

Lastly, I want to comment on your new CD, "Super Colossal." I think you have done it again. It is so awsome. I love it, even when compared to "Surfing With the Alien" and "Not of this Earth." I love it and it is awsome. I also enjoy this webstie very much. Thanx Joe Satch.

Today, one of the loves of my life turned 84 years old.....

HAPPY BIRDEE TO MY SWEET POPPA!!!! :)))))

Hi Joe and Satch fans!!!!!

Good Morning Satchaholic's

Sorry I have not been around for a while, How are we all?.

Booked my Holiday last weeks Wow Hoo, Majorca again in July.

Not long now 16th of June is not that far off.......

I made a MySpace account!!! Check me out...

Here it is: My MySpace

Whisky Lady - The first time I referred to you by this nickname someone did tell me you were more of an Absolut Citron lady. Can't remember who but I think it may have been Mr T or 369. Anyway, my explanation will be the same! There is a whisky called Famous Grouse, this is (for me) near enough to Famous Crouse. Know anyone called Crouse who is famous (as a photographer maybe)? LOL

Bad luck with the (lack of) photopasses, but think of Pandora's box. No matter what shit and bother came out, there was still HOPE remaining!

Keep rocking and good luck.

Thanks for the photos of the last gig at the Warfield of the Super Colossol Tour with Eric Johnson.

Just wondering if there is any photos of the gig at the House Of Blues, Orlando Florida with Joe/Eric Johnson and Steve Morse or if anyone on here has any?

Paul McCartney and Wife Separate

LONDON - Former Beatle Paul McCartney and his wife, Heather Mills McCartney said Wednesday they are separating after nearly four years of marriage.

A statement issued by McCartney and his second wife said they had "found it increasingly difficult to maintain a normal relationship with constant intrusion into our private lives."

The brief statement said that "with sadness" the couple agreed to "go our separate ways" but said the parting was "amicable."

He married Mills in June 2002, four years after his former wife, Linda McCartney, died of breast cancer. McCartney and Mills had a daughter in October 2003.

"Separation for any couple is difficult enough, but to have to go through this so publicly, especially with a small daughter, is immensely stressful," the statement said. "We hope, for the sake of our baby daughter, that we will be given some space and time to get through this difficult period."

DVDs reveal 'Pulse' of Pink Floyd & David Gilmour

NEW YORK (Billboard) - The Pink Floyd live DVD "Pulse," originally set for release last December, will now hit stores June 27, according to Columbia Records.

The set was originally released on VHS in 1995 in conjunction with a double-disc CD set of the same name. The film chronicles the band's 1994 tour in support of the album "The Division Bell," which turned out to be its last.

The "Pulse" DVD was taped during a 14-night run at London's Earl's Court and is highlighted by the first complete performance of the 1973 album "Dark Side of the Moon," which can be found on the second disc. The first disc features a blend of older hits ("Another Brick in the Wall Pt. 2," "Learning To Fly") and material from "The Division Bell" ("Keep Talking," "Take It Back").

Among the bonus features are the back-screen stage projections used during the 1994 and 1987 tours, as well as music videos for a host of "Division Bell" tracks, the off-stage documentary "Goodbye To Life As We Know It" and Floyd's performance of "Wish You Were Here" with Billy Corgan at its 1996 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Sci-Fi Influence

Great concert in Houston on Apr. 28. I've noticed a sci-fi influence to some of your songs such as Ice 9 (Vonnegut), One Robot's Dream (iRobot - Asimov), Luminous Flesh Giants (Ender's Game - Card?), SWTA. Are you a sci-fi fan and does it influcence some of you ideas for songs?
