Alexandre,

vou chegar a Madrid no próprio dia, umas horas antes do concerto. Era curtido encontarmo-nos antes do concerto, não? O meu telele é 96 639 0123, se quiseres, sempre podíamos beber um copito e discutir qual o disco preferido, etc, etc...

Stevee T, hi back :) cool new song, by the way...

LMAO!!!! Zidane game...

DOTHESTU- Yep it's definitely addictive posting on here! Did you get to see Joe play this year at all?

MASTERYODA- I love the way you have "Neil Morgan BA" under your MasterYoda name... lol... a friend of mine, when she qualified as a dentist, for ages she just had to pay on her card for everything for a while, because it said "Dr." on her bank card. She loved it! :) P.S. lol at the Zidane game...

CRONUMBER9- Thanks once again:) And thanks for trying that link out as well :)

962- Well I suppose being busy isn't always a bad thing... I hate this time of year, right at the end of the school term, everything is so hectic, you can never finish anything... And I have 6 years worth of stuff to box up and move to my new school in 4 days. I think I am 100% ready for my summer holiday! Still, not long left in this current job. :D

BEATRIX KIDDO- Hope you're well :)

Will be recording soon. Will let everyone know when stuff is available to check out.

Hi Joe, keep on rockin the crowds man. I miss the days I could just sit in my room all evening listening to your CDs over and over, enjoying the sunsets and starry skies out the window.

Lucy...thank you...welcome back!

Cool Summer Nights

High Wire no lead guitar yet...still thinking...?

Jimi's Amoung Us

JOE, ZZ's podcast #2 is awesome!! They're so much fun! I was laughing so hard at a few parts I had to go back and listen to it again so I didn't miss anything. You guys are a riot!! The Polish audience rocked!! Man I'll tell ya, ZZ has some of the best summer vacations!!! lol!

Zen, metronome ~ good one. lol!

Suzie - lol... I'm sure the novelty will eventually wear off for me... But until then, I shall use my letters!! :-D

HI JOE, HOPE THE GIGS FOR SUPER COLLOSAL ARE GOIN WELL MAN.

I SENT U A MESSAGE REGARDING THE ALMERIA GIG ON TUESDAY 18TH JULY.UNFORTUNATELY ME AND MY FATHER WERE UNABLE TO OBTAIN TICKETS FOR THIS VENUE.WE LIVE AROUND 10 MILES AWAY, AND SO I HAVE TAKEN THE TIME OFF WORK TO TRY AND SCOUT FOR ANY CANCELLED TICKETS ON THE NIGHT( PROBABLY NOT MUCH CHANCE OF THAT), BUT HEY IF IM AT THE AUDITORIO AND WE DONT HAVE ANY LUCK I¨LL STAND ON A WALL NEAR BY JUST TO GET A GLIMPSE MAN.WE ARE FROM ENGLAND AND I MISSED U THERE TWICE DUE TO ILLNESS.PLEASE HELP US MAN, I HAVE TO SEE U PLAY. YOURS REALLY HOPEFULLY CARL

Has anyone here seen this video? I came across it a few weeks ago but figured I'd post it now since some of you are talking about EVH. This is from a concert in Carson just last month, but looking at how Eddie is running all over the stage you'd think it's from 1981 or so. Pretty cool...

paiize - Amazon should have Joe's guitar books.

Also, I loved it when Joe threw a bit of The Enigmatic into one of the jams toward the end of his set. I wish he'd play more of the songs from that album...The Enigmatic, Driving At Night, or New Day could fit nicely in his set today.

962:NP bro

Zen:Ycan play frisbie with it bro,lol its all changed.Good its end of year now for the sinf, gives me more time t put the bucks in the bank,buy decent pro gear & figure out how t get the best out of it.I,ve been caught up in one thing or another this year, change of boss/job, time off from the bust hand, now i have t catch up with bills & save for visiting Andalucia in August.Good news is in September i change to a good company with a great contract & hours.Back end of Aug, i,ll mail y then

Suzie 2000:If Ibanez took a piece of root of any tree dressed it up, stuck a joe pickup on it & attached say the first half of the neck with the pointy headstock to it & called it the JSstump, i wonder how many would buy it lol, its sad t say....but i would just for the laugh.I can imagine the convo, i,ve got the Chromeboy wow, i,ve just bought the JS 1200 cool wow d y like it...Well i just bought THIS,it kicks stump,lol

it does suck when y cant sit in on jazz n blues sessions Suzo because yer holding a strange superstrat lookin guitar.I used t love playin it at some folk gigs, the frowns from the arran sweater first few rows were downright scary, sometimes y just want a backline of 12 4 by 12s & 24 Marshall heads,lol

GROWLER:I miss my Nunchac,s bud, i dont miss the crack on the inside elbows when y get it wrong in practice though,lol i lost count how many times i,ve come out black n blue under the arm from catchin it & it kicks the crap out yer shoulders, but sure feels good when the muscle functions as it should i must admit.Y know Zappa said music is best... most musicians that have played long enough knew that b4 they saw that published, some others like me back then were still in question, is it, if so what is it? I,ve watched many a brickhouse of a man crumble t happy tears when listening to the worst version of a song & many a fight end because of it, when i hold & play guitar i walk away with ease, i see others change b4 my eyes, a light enters for eg a student that just understood the basics of improv, taking a 5 year old kid wearing a Nervana T-shirt with a mother hell bent he is goin t learn Classical n Jazz, takin his classical guitar from him putting an electric round his neck, showing him a bar chord an have him stompin on a distortion pedal....the smile tells all, he comes back in secret from mother to his class happy.His mother knows nothing nor cares 2 but he gets music! I never cared t evolve enough in Martial art to achieve that moment, but i have so much respect for those that do & you know that bud!

Cuth:Amoungst other things yes, poverty for 1,well y know bro, I,m still waitin for the lotto,lol

Joe:21st Barcelona, lookin forward t it bud.Hope y get over Deli Belly water joy i think y may have had?

sorry for the long post

Hi folks...

ovation...yes, dream come true, indeed! Last night Joe did come into my dream, and he gave me some guitar advice. WOW!!!

Clarky...yes, it really did happen, we have the proof!!

Satriella..hi there! The photos were taken by my friend Viki..unfortunately it was all so quick with the security guys hurrying us up that I never thought to take one of her. Shame!

Hi Joe, hi all,

I´m going to see Joe in Concert tomorrow July 18th in Almeria...I´ve been waiting for months, and tomorrow is the day!

I was lucky enough to win an aftershow backstage pass, so I am so happy and amazed that I think I will can not sleep tonight.

I talked with Galen Henson (suck a kind guy! thanks Galen for the emails!) and said that there´s no problem bringin my Ibanez Js10th Chromeboy with me to the venue, to have it signed by Joe....meet the man, my dream come true.Hope we can hang around a little with joe at the bar in the venue, will be a great place to meet Joe after the show.

I will take a couple of old vinyls with me too, and of course, my camera, but, just seeing Joe playin´ live just a few meters from me is, as I said, a dream come true.

I´m going to give Joe a gift also, for his last 50th birthday...just hope you live at least 50 more, Joe.

Thanks for coming to Almeria, and hope to see you tomorrow.

Peace,

Suzie: It worked for me. Tell Matt it sounds beautiful.......I'll be getting those photos to you again in little bits instead of 1 big bite. Beautiful new guitars, wonderful additions to the family. I'd still like to hear more of Matt's Bluesy stuff. He mentioned about sending me a CD. Sorry but I've been really busy.......Hugs!

Zenfish: Awesome Uber-hard Swinghard!! Love that EVH! Poor Waldo.....lol. Did I send you that pic of EVH from a friends friend's wedding?

LucySorents: Congrats on the aftershow pass!! You Rock sweetie! Tell Joe & the Guys hello for me! You have mail. ;-))

AlexandreCaetano: Have a great time Alex, I wish I was going to the show with you & Lucy!! Tell JOe Happy Birthday!! I hope you get photopass! Say hi to the guys, Jon Iverson & Mick too. Hugs to you both!! You have mail. ;-))

Blue Moon: Nice to see your Joe photos Al. I'm glad you made it home safe.....I was a little worried about you. I'd only read bits & pieces not being around t2jmuch these days..... Any concert shots? Just curious, what do you do for a living beside play your guitar & write beautiful songs?

Ovation: I may have missed your reply but I sent you Paul Gilbert photos again..........last week I think. I miss spelled an "o" instead of an "a" in an email. I hope to see a few Jeff Beck shows in September. One confirmed Sept 11th in NJ.......I'm bypassing the WHO this tour, it's the SAME week!! I'm hoping to see 3 JB shows for the price of 1 WHO show...$225 Ouch!

Do The Stu: Hey Austin!! Nice to see you..... don't be a stranger! I'll be going to NAMM in January 2007 already have the time off and a pass to get in. I hope to meet up with you again, that would be uber-cool!

MariaNoelle: Hi sweetie! I hope you and the family are doing well. How's theStudio coming along, all done?I have good news...I'll be writing in the next few days! Wish I could send the "secret weapon" to a few people here.....lol

For those in Latin America & Mexico you may be interested......

The G3 will be coming your way! I'm not going to spill the beans but SV is not one of the G3. Webmaster Jon will give you the details soon enough........... Dates are still being confirmed. I'd love to go to S.A. again, Costo Rica was very beautiful as was Panama. I got some incredible images when I was on St. Andres Island Colombia. Maybe i'll get there again.....

Peace.
