MAY THE killers FEEL THE WRATH OF NATURE AND DIE IN THEIR CAVES OR WHEREVER THEY ARE LIVING....MARDASAS ETC..................I HOPE THEY ROT IN THEIR HOMES.....FRANKLY AS YU DO UNTO OTHERS YU SHOULD EXPECT THE SAME...,,,,,,,,,!!!!!!!!!! AND MAY THE LEECHES SUCK ON YOU ........TO HELL WITH TERRORISM....

WE NEED PEACE AND SO IF ANY ONE OF YOU SEES A TERRORIST ,,HIT HIM HARD WITH WHATEVER YU GET...SPADE,SHOVEL,AXE.GUN,HAMMER,,,,,ANYTHING TO HELP MAKE THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE.

Zenfish............bro yu are right,nothing can be taken away from Zidane for all that he had achieved in his career..it has been awonderful career....i second yu on that and i think what happened on sunday was because at the heat of the moment Zidane forgot that he was carrying the weight of the whole of France that day.......it has been a terriffic career and he has been one of my fav players but sadly his career had to end that way.....i hope he can forgive himself for that and repent and then dwell on all his achievements which have been numerous and insurmountable......... Zidane deserved more and frankly yu are right about Materazzi working on Zidanes ' temper......that is professional sports..yu work on yur opponents strength and weakness and if taht means pisssing yur opponent off so be it.....i am also very sure taht materazzi must have said something that really got into zidanes nerves....according to some papers he referred to Zidane as a "TERRORIST" and so Zidane had every right to be mad but he should have controlled his anger at least for another 12 minutes and who knows France could have won the world cup in normal extra time...afterall we cannot deny the fact that ZIZOU is one of the most influential footballers at the moment in the world..no player can tick like he does if its his day,,,,ask Brazil and Spain and they will say yes!!!!!!!anyway...cheers and have a nice day...

Suzie2000..........hey suzo,,,please get over it...i was just toying with yu to get yu upset..i swear i did not mean it...anyway the world cup is over and so let us all bury the hatchet........no hard feelings..........i hope yu have a wonderful day and god bless.....teacher.

Satriella......hope yu got my mail from yesterday......do reply please and take care...

slanshroom...glad to hear tha bro...hope yu have a nice day.

ovation ....bro yu have mail.....

Another bit of time has happened by since my last chat again. A few pages to catch up on.

OVATION 1 A big thanks bro for the link! Just curious. History haunts me for some reason.

SLANSH Thanks for the words of wisdom buddy. Glad to see all is well with you. My wife and I cant get enough of that Ali G link!

SUZIE Your my kind of woman girl. Loves Bruce Lee movies, and quotes him as well? I think I married the wrong woman!

GUITARMEISTER Good thing you missed the UFC man. I've been watching Pride too. Poor Shamrock is looking for a positive way to bow out and he just keeps getting pounded both in UFC and PRIDE. How do you like Bob Sapp? Think that dude could take care of Silvia?

CUTHBERT Thanks for the congrats buddy. Yeah, I think that the time and energy put into research and study kicked my butt! Congrats to your wife. She must really have a great sense of accomplishment, however the kids are far more important than anything. The Ph.D is in physical therapy and like your wife, I'm not practicing anymore. Maybe I should be?

KEN Yeah, I thought Joe was into snowboarding or surfing. Living in San Fran you get the best of both worlds. Thought he might surf as he has the surfer on the back of his guitar. Coooool! Love the drags bro! Funny cars are outrageous! The shake! We used to have a dragstrip out here but it had to close down after 20 years. You could race for 2 bucks! Anything you wanted. From mopeds to dragsters. I just looked inside of a AA fuel alt and got the chills. Those things are mean, nasty critters. Love it though!

WATERPROOF SOAP Welcome home bro! Your bass is waiting.

BAHDUH Get down! Now thats what I call venting! You have my sympathy man. Over here in Hawaii we have the North Korean missle testing going on. Today I heard on the news that they are stagging-up another onslaught. The problem is is that even with our technology we have a difficult time with I.D. of an actual warhead. We just sent over a new ship to Japan that is supposed to be capable of intercepting these warheads. They contain nuclear and biological concentrations. Our military believes that Japan is able to handle the situation without US involvement. If not, you can look at us most likely pulling out of the mid east. At least I hope so for Hawaii's sake as the range of these missles can reach into Nevada! Then you have to worry about fallout. Global? My wife and I are actually going to get our trust and papers in order tomorrow. I'm serious bro. Live each day the best you can.

Hi, from Novi Sad, Serbia. It`s 11am, Cant wait tonight concert. It took me 20 years to see you finally Live. Thank you very much. Oh, my god, starting to feel like a teenager again.

First of all happy birthday to you on the 15 July. Even though you´re still on tour I hope someone does something to make this day extra special for you.

I want to thank you so much for a GREAT concert in Copenhagen on the 27 June. It was the first time ever for me to see you live and what made it even more special is that I had the priviledge and honour of meeting you in person afterwards. I wanted to tell you so many things but ended up with saying the things you´ve probably heard a million times before. I know those things may sound corny but it came straight from my heart. I DO listen to your music every day (Especially Crystal Planet, Super Colossal and The Extremist, but I love each and everyone of your CDs).If someone asks me what it is I like about your music - well first of all it´s the sound of course. But also because of all the thoughts that lie behind each and every song you make. Your music has such depth and I love that.

Hy there again!

I was reading some previews of shows in other countries and have noticed that many people had problems with taking pictures - security.

Hi everybody! It's been awhile.

I just wanna say...

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

I've been all over the place the last couple of weeks and just didn't have the time to post or read anything. I probably missed out on something big right? :)

I went through hell trying to muster up the cash to pay for the tix for the 07/13 show in Opatija and the whole trip. I'm not sure I'm out of it (hell) though. Bills keep stacking up... arrrgh.... gotta keep thinking positively! 'Cause I AM going to the show....

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

Got the ticket and a last minute arrangement which drained my budget but the heck with it! I goin'!!!

Suzo2000 --

That Bruce Lee's fav poem best describes the spirit I'm in right now. A positive attitude is what's keeping me from falling into depression and despair. Bruce Lee is an all inspiring personality and at times like these thinking about him and the way he lived his life fill me with much needed inner strength. Yeah... and The Joe Satriani gig tomorrow........

......aaaaaaahhhhhhhhh... tomorrow!!!! :))))

I don't know if you know about this... it's old news. But I think it can never be repeated too many times so here:

HONG KONG (AP) — Statues of Bruce Lee were unveiled in Bosnia and his hometown of Hong Kong to mark the 65th birthday of the late screen icon credited with introducing kung fu to the world.

It just shows his impact on the world. He truly inspired/s many the world over.

Hey Satch People,

I haven't been on here in a while, but wanted to share something with you all... impressive, if it's real. Hey Joe, do you have a brother that plays bass? lol.

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?……
