cant believe its my birthday today... hmmm

Hey, Joe! I'm coming to see ya in Chicago on April 5th. Coming all the way from Indianapolis, IN cuz you never come here :( Anyways, this time I said screw it. I'm making the drive and I'm gonna see ya for the first time. I can't wait till your pedal comes out. I would like to know what you think about Ibanez's new ZR trem. I just got a new S470DXQM blue. It's gorgeous but I think I will need to replace the pups. Can't wait to hear your new material. I really enjoy listening to your music. The melodies get stuck in my head and I go around singing guitar licks all day. People at work prolly think I'm a little bit crazy.....singing guitar lol. I'm looking forward to seeing Paul, too. He's awesome. Anyways, keep us rocking man.

clarrrkyy ~ your kind words are always hard to take in. hard to believe that a monster player/composer like yourself finds some good in the shenannigans i do with guitar hahah but ill take what i can get and thanks a ton man :) i got loads of new stuff. i'll share after i've annoyed you all with my senseless posts about the earth and the moon and why i don't eat cottage cheese.

chelle...i only have one pic from that show but damn is it an epic photo. i'd give anything to go back and relive that after show. Chris Brierre come around here anymore lately? I believe his handle was psycho monkey ~ i've kinda lost touch with a lot of the old crew. I miss the old time machine background lol I prolly mention that everytime i reminice (i don't know how to spell that word).

I'll write more later after work, but for right now, I just gotta say...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE MOST SPECIALIST CHEESE IN ALL OF CHEESEVILLE - TRACIE A. SAFLEY!!! happy birthday honey!!

Happy birthday to you also Jason R.!

Hope you both have a great day!

Clarky:lol, Indeedy, the more the sillier, having fun makin this cd, its inevitable hicups are goin t occur along the path, specially pushin gear t do the insane, have t keep tellin myself, cmon slan its not fookin Nasa lol, good luck with Curse of the 9th Satan salad is excellent wicked job on the vocals btw fecken el, never been brave enough myself, dont like the sound of my voice one bit so the question begs t be asked....who convinced ya lol

Wizard:Thx for checkin it out bro, currently working on my 2nd cd, i,ll be gigin with this one tho.Its taken a lifetime t get my shit together but i,m ready t throw the meat t the sharks now i have my own take on music nearly nailed, the next few years should be interesting & yip i hear ya about cash lol, thats yet another reason i couldnt have done this earlier, i had t bust my ass for 5 years in construction t buy the gear i needed t record, wasnt that bad tho, well...i know how t build & renovate a house n have all the gear i need t rec, i think of it that way, i could complain about screwin up my hands for a while but whats the point, end of the day it paid off, laters

Cappy:lol nah quite the opposite, its a relief for the hands t slow down & concentrate on the classier aspects of tech like bendin strings & adding my own vibrato, its a balancing act really of knowing when & when not t play, i,ll try & explain, albeit in a slanshy way.If your technique is good you have total command over your instrument, technique is EVERYTHING, forget what the rest say, if its the reverse its sloppy.Technique has got a lot of bad press over the years, usually from silly old white farts that still cant play the blues & still hung up on Hendrix or 90,s grunge Nirvana heads so people run for cover when the word is mentioned

what technique is..is simply playing the correct way in order to achieve the best results...if ya get really good at it, no technique as technique is the result...anyhoos its all a lot of old toss at end o the day....if it sounds good it is good, i,m off for an afternoon beer, laters bro, slan chucks an ale t ya

Cheese:Happy birthday hon

Cheese101- Happy Boitday

jblaze- I love Martin's. When I go to the local Guitar Center I go in the back where they keep the acoustics and usually play 2 or 3 of 'em. Last time I was there I played a couple of Breedlove's very nice guitars as well and not to pricey. It's like a candy store for me. If you've got any skill the salesmen usually leave you alone and let you play whatever you want. If you can't own one it's the next best thing. I've played some beautiful Taylor's as well.

Slan- I think you have some new fans. I directed a few people to your MySpace page in the chatroom last night, and I think it's safe to say they were all thoroghly impressed. I believe one of the comments went like this "My God, I had no idea". Can't wait to hear the new stuff. L8R

Well, I figured out how to put in a direct link (YES) so if you'd like to see these 2 videos I took at the Hyde Street Studio show, follow the links - ENJOY!
