Good morning all. Well, I have been thinking about how different we all are, and how each poster reacts to things said. Growler: I can relate to some of your interests,ie: UFC, weightlifting, physical therapy, and I tend to rip into people sometimes, even overrip occasionaly, but I don't enjoy doing that often, or looking forward to playing with people's heads. I think that you are intelligent, and obviously with a masters in PT, you are a go to guy on any injuries posters may encounter playing any instrument. I think that most of the people here are on an even playing field mentally, the thing is, if I get into it with someone, I'll think about their point of view after I "get off my horse", even if it pains me to do so. So what I'm saying ultimately, is this, I am done leveling insults at anyone I already have, unless they feel the need to throw down at me. I was out of control as a young and early middle ager for a long time, and I like to be mellow with people most of the time now.
I read your old posts, and I noticed you seem to like to "get into it" with some of our pals here. That's cool for you, but I don't like the draining effect it has on me spiritually, even though I'm not into religion persay. I know me and the Captain got into it, and really I tend to laugh at myself and how mad we can all get over such silly things after all is said and done. I think if you can do that, that is, sit back and say "ha, ha, I sound like a bit of a fool, same as the guy I'm mad at". Then it's all good. That's me and I just think that there are positive things about anyone that we just don't see, especially when we want to "beat the living f__k out of them". (kidding). I was like that when I was younger, and it did nothing but delay my accomplishments. I really enjoyed being a guitarist when I took lessons from Joe's friend, Doug Doppler in Berkeley Ca. We're about the same age, and he would impress me with his docile manner, yet fierce playing. The guy knew I was stoned sometimes during the first few months of lessons, and that I was pretty crazy, but never got unnerved or mad about it. He gave me a little shit joking around, but really just wanted to help me shred, and he would throw in a dose of "hey take it easy" from time to time and that's what I needed to see and hear. Then I got serious and got better and better and he saw how much work I was putting in and gave me extra attention cause we connected and had mutual respect. That's Joe too, unbelievably cool guy, totally approachable, but able to terrorize at a moments notice with his Ibanez. To me, that's doing something really wonderful and positive with your life, and so I like to try to "approach" that view of the world now.
Anyway, we're cool, and let's get on with everyone unless we get "unleashed" upon, and if and when that happens, just give it back in a short and sweet manner, so it does'nt keep you from posting other positive, useful info to someone else like you are capable of.
It sounds to me like Mr. Fisher is ok and wants to gel with you on past differences. I say give the guy a break, and start over. Take it to heart Growlz, I'm no Ghandi, by any means, but let's stick to music and helpful, interesting shit.
Why don't we all put that and a smidgen of pot in our pipes and smoke it! Ha, ha, ha.
Later everyone, Anton Shred

gotta have joe:Yo Kayla, heres a lil thing that moved me from a-b on alternate picking.
Reach out with your right hand and make it look like your opening and closing a locked door with a key.Use the same motion when picking up & down .
Its a hard technique to play the small notes well, so dont be hard on yourself, its going to take y a lot of time hon.All in all, the fast notes really aint all that important, i prefer myself 5 well played than 1000, each to there own thought i guess, good luck in practicing

Slanshroom: yo wat up mang. I wonder if you had any audio or video on the web to check out? Just curious as you appear to know your shit pretty well. I wonder what equipment you like? I listed my guitars back a bit, and used to play through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier rack mount head and Hughes and Kettner half stack, and I used a VHT Pitbull also as another head. The VHT was really something else, very impressive, but I stayed with the Boogie cuz it had just a killer overall sound with a ferocious bottom end. Anyway, just wondering what you and everyone else thinks about those rigs I used.
Later on SatchFreakazoids, Anton Shred

Dear Everyone
My name is Dylan. I am from Damariscotta Maine. Is anyone from Maine? I saw Joe in concert on one of the G3 tours in Minneapolis MN when I went there for college. I saw him with Eric Johnson, Steve Vai and one other guy I don't remember but it was amazing. I saw it with my friend Kevin Wipf. Did anyone see that concert? I wish I could have seen him with John Petrucci from Dream Theater. They are an amazing group.
Dylan
