clarky ~ i hear ya on the satchness with CoE. It's my biggest inner demon~ Since the split though, things are getting...interesting? I've been focusing more on odd like scenarios and writing around them instead of just playing something that sound "cool" to me. Like...Santana vs the space aliens...the aliens win eventually and take over the world with the mighty force of the whole-tone scale.

oh boy...

chelle ~ work sucks but i understand. there has to be some way for the good ol' unlisters to reunite. i'll never forget the april shows in 2001 in nyc. even chris from france was there. such amazing times.

Hi Joe! Hi Everybody! First I'd Like to say hello to y'all (first post :D!). It looks fun around here. I think i'll be posting a lot more.
I grew up listening to Joe, My dad recorded the '92 Sevilla expo, and ever since it came on, I watched it many many times. i was 2yo at the time, but fascinated by Joe's Music. I praise myself lucky for knowing such great music for whole my life. I know I'm still young (turn 18 on march 23 ;))But I can always say I have been a fan of Joe since being a baby. Always with Me, Always with you was, and stil is my favourite song, especially like it was performed in Sevilla. Brings back so many memories...

GUITAR ADVICE?

Just purchased an Ibanez RG350 EX Guitar, with the 3 Piece WIzard Neck. Wasn't sure wich Guitar to go for, I find that most Standard Guitars I have trouble with the Necks thickness, therefore the Store Owner recommended the "Wizard Neck" Models.

Was this a good choice? Anybody own one here, or previously owned one?

I have always liked the Ibanez Guitars over other makes, which is why I picked this one.

Phil Newton - Welcome to the site... :-) Have you seen Satch in concert before, or will this be your first time?

Clarky - yeah, has been. I've only had time to drop on now and again much like yourself. Will drop you an e-mither. Things seem to be going from strength to strength for you (and rightly so)... good times!

Blue Moon - you download that software and recover your files from the memory card?

Webby - are the podcasts going to be in QT or flash. It's been great having them in QT so you could save them, but I notice the switch to flash for the current update. Any danger of the album ones in multi format?

gruskada - shame you have to go, as like Stu says, your posts are always interesting and fun. You really can't stay? Or come back in another guise? Maybe a new nick like "I am not gruskada - honest"... something subtle like that?

Andy of UK - thanks, about to tune in!

Carlpenn - you might want to post that on www.jemsite.com as well?

Wizard - haaaa.. looks like I missed your post... I love bluegrass... and jeez.. some of those guys can really play...
I've promised myself that one day I'm going to take the time to learn Texas Gales

so what's the new Ovi like... you can't just come in here and say things like "oh I got a new double neck Ovi" without going through all the gory details... it's just not sporting... lmao..

and the tunes are smokin'...

I love 'em both...

I know I'm retarded....but still.....couldn't figure out any way to hear the BBC interview with Joe, or how to find it now to listen to a replay. Sigh. Hopefully someone recorded it and will share?

I also wanted to say thanks.....so many of you here have posted supportive and caring messages on the board to me and my family...as well as quite a few of you have gone the extra mile and sent me private emails of encouragement. I appreciate each one of you for taking the time to care like that. It's pretty amazing that because of a website that Joe has where we can come together as fans to enjoy him and his music, that strangers can also care about one another....even from across the world.

This is my first post and I'm a huge fan, I'm planning to see you on April 4th when you come to DC, but I really need to know the time you'll be getting there for the "Guitar Center" Tour. I only need to know because traffic is rough trying to get from Baltimore to DC, and I'd be forever grateful if you posted an estimated time of when you'll be there.

Good Afternoon Satchland....... How R U ?

Spring is here ....buds are starting to come out on the trees

AND CHICAGO IS GETTING FECKING 4" TO 6" OF SNOW THIS SAT.

I'm so fecking depressed right now. We've all had it up to here( hand over head) with this Winter. I'm really,really pissed off. Did I say I was pissed off? This really SUCKS ! ! !

On the bright side......Thank God there's always a bright side.

I met Michael Angelo Batio at the Arlington Heights,IL. Guitar Center last night. MAB was doing a Dean guitar workshop. Man was it excellant. He signed my "Speed Kills" DVD. What really impressed me the most is the person. Just like Joe.....reaching to fans, taking pics, sighning guitars and posters. He's really is a genuin guy not caught up in his own fame. What an inspiration. Clarky/Slans...not that I doubted your advise but he reinforced exactly what we talked about with the picking. It doen't matter if it's Alternate or Alternitive....as long as you play it clean and don't change your picking going from slow to fast. I'm pleased to say I don't and talking to him cleared any misconseptions I had about these techniques. Dean Zielinski was there also. This is another genuin guy. He's got long Black curly hair down past his shoulders and was wearing a Black leather hat with a Black leather coat with Snakeskin cowboy boots. Dean looked more like a biker dude then the CEO of Dean Guitars. Genuin.....you betcha.....What a great night.

Mari......No prob me lady. Thanks for the nod about our band. We're still kickin'....as a matter of fact coming home from the MAB seminar I got a call from Lyden Moon inviting us to play a gig with him. Lyden knows MAB real well and is on his site under Avilliated artists. We're real excited about this. Networking is key today for any band and I think this will be a good situation for us. I'll keep ya posted. Hugs to you.... God Bless .....

Roffler...... I might be going to Joe's Guitar Center meet. I 'll look for ya if I go.....Cool......

Have A Great Day Everyone ! ! ! ! ! !

Hey Slan, a Q.
