Prayers to India.
Sorry, but I must say this, so children cover yer eyes ~ all terrorists are pussies! They are afraid to fight in man to man combat, so they sneak around like snakes and hurt and kill innocent people. One thing I know for sure is that they will all rot in the firey pit of hell, where what they have done to others will come back on them.
From Dream Theater's In The Name Of God~
Passion
Twisting faith into violence
In the name of God
Straight is the path
Leading to your salvation
Slaying the weak
Ethnic elimination
Any day we'll all be
Swept away
You'll be saved
As long as you obey
Lies
Tools of the devil inside
Written in Holy disguise
Meant to deceive and divide
Us all
Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you
Killing in the name of God

Dear Joe
Just a quick question, What do you do with all your fan mail you receive on tour, I am sure you get handed loads of letters and Demo’s while meeting fan’s. Do you save them for when you get home or do you read them on tour as you go along?.
Hope you are enjoying the rest of the tour.
If you could say……Where has had the best Crowd Chant so far?……
Stay Safe,
Dave x

Clarky: That's cool, sounds like a lot of fun! I really like passing on musical knowledge. It's great when you see the light bulb come on in some one's head when you can convey a concept to them. I always think it's funny when so many guitarists are afraid to divulge knowledge about playing the instrument because they are afraid that person will take the info and beat them at their own game.....I 've always thought that was silly haah!

Greetings from the Great White North. Home turf, as it were. I remember your gigs at the Coronet (had one there myself a few years later) and I've been following your work ever since.
Congrats on this new album. Simply amazing. Track 7 is indescribable. I've never heard anything like it, even from you. Music for the 21st Century. So how come no genesis? All the other tracks have one...
I've been playing keyboards most of my life and after thirty years of bells and whistles in the electro-arena, I'm back to 88 hammers. And something marvelous has happenned. I'm coming up with stuff where sometimes I have to stop, thinking 'did I do that?' I've somehow come full circle and been musically reborn, and I have you to thank.
My influnces have been vast but in my new spectrum it comes down to two. There's Dr. Oscar P. who pretty much sets the bar for what I do, and who taught me that any combination of notes can made into music. And there's you, who like some modern-day Paganini taught me that I can maybe stretch the limits of my instrument like you do yours. Together you've given me a kind of fearlessness I didn't expect. Prestigious company for you too, eh? Thx again.
Just a little anecdote to wrap up. My friend Manuel (bass player) went to see you at Massey Hall a month ago. Just before the show, he gets a tap on the shoulder from Graham Greene (they've been tight since Greene was a roadie in
the seventies). A little banter and Graham gets a tap on the shoulder from Kim Mitchell. Some more banter and Kim gets a tap from Alex Lifeson. I have to wonder who else was there, and I just think it's nice to know that the best guitarists in Toronto still feel they have something to learn.
I have three heroes - Oscar, my dad, and Frank Lloyd Wright, whose best work came after he turned fifty. I sense terrific prospects for you. And maybe me too. Let's rock the house, my friend.

Heya everyone and Joe, if you read this...
Can anybody tell me which pedal it is Joe uses in "Searching" to loop his pick-scratching, and then can alter the speed of it's playback etc for that amazing effect? I'd very much appreciate if anyone can tell me the answer. Thanks a lot! :D

Peace n love t all
screw the first bit "edit"
GROWLER:Humor is what kept the scots together, we learnt it from the Irish "thx " because life back then was unbearable.We use it today, not to hide the past, but to get through that which still haunts the subconscious of soul pain.Lest said about that here the better,lol
I was brought up playing/singing Scottish folk songs from 5years old i never took guitar serious till around 10...for the most part during those early years, the songs were/are depressing scenarios of how we were treated by the English, but i found it amusing as a child when my grandma would enter & the whole house changed to God save the Queen.My dad couldnt look me straight in the eye, my mother quiet.. as it was her mother.So i,m piggy in the middle feeling whats the story untold,lol.There is only room left for humor...trust me in such a situation as a child.Billy Connolly was our only man
so...onto another blindin piece soft t start but shows the human of Billy Connolly & i,m proud t post this it has t be said
the uncomedy side of the man
heres the other side Bill Connelly

Bahduh- well I have had a bit of a sense of humour bypass over the whole thing... but yes ok draw a line under it:)
GROWLER- :) I think my favourite Bruce Lee film is The Big Boss. I could watch that over and over. Very inspirational.
CRO NUMBER9- Sorry to hear you're down at the moment. Films and Music both do have that power to lift your mood or spirit, I find that quite incredible really. Hope you're feeling better soon- you must be by tomorrow if you're seeing JOE! If that doesn't help I don't know what will :) Good to hear from you and thanks for the links:)
Clarky- thanks :)
THANK YOU to anyone I missed on here who has added Matt to the MySpace (Tool, saw yours earlier :)) For some reason we can't edit stuff on this computer, it doesn't like it:( But thanks so much!

Hi Joe!
I'd like to take a moment of your time to say that I have recently (several months ago) heard your music for the first time. Since then I've acquired 4 cd's of your work and found almost all of it musically moving or at least interesting. I can safely say that I'm now a fan for life... :-)
You move me, man! (yeah, it's corny, but it's also true!!)
Thank you for sharing your musical gift!!!!!

Hello,
I found in the web Vivaldi's Four Seasons, and this is really beautiful, great, fun, etc. etc. etc.
Could you please tell me if you have already recorded it ?
If yes, what's the album's name ?
Did you record the other parts of Four Seasons ? If no, shouldn't it be a great idea ?
Thanks a lot for your answer
