I know it must be super duper top secret, but has anyone caught wind of how much the "Satchurator Pedal" is going to cost? I'd like to start saving now...lol..

ZuperDave, yep....$119-$129, Guitar Center has it priced at $129 to pre-order.

Hey Joe and Band,

yesterday i was the thirdtime on your concert in Germany, Filharmonie Filderstadt. Your show was excellent as ever, top guitar professionality at its best.

My question: have you on tour your own man on the mixer or from the company which build up the PA ?

Sorry, sorry, but the sound was very very bad yesterday. The bassdrum and bass in deepest it punches all down. We stand near the Mixerarea in the middle of the hall. Your very fine and acribic phrases could not be recognized as well in the overload of the PA. I thought, the mixerman has taken the Heavymetall-Preset for your very fine guitarmusic. It was very sad, not to enjoy whole of details. In 2002 in Tuttlingen, Hohnberg, there was a little bit smaller PA, but with a better resolution and without the heavy overloads.

I hope you can have a look on this things in future.

I wish you a sucessful tour and a lot of fun in germany.

Greats

Tuesdayschild You got the book already!? Cool. Understand though you're not gonna be Satch overnight. It takes a minute to get your ears to tune in to the way the different notes sound in each scale and which ones sound good together.Goin' about it this way (without kearning to read music), there is a LOT of trial and error involved. This book is basically like a blueprint or road map that will help cut down on unnecessary errors

Like I said, when I first got this book I already knew a thing or two about scales and their application.

One more thing that might compliment that book is if you invest in a metronome so as not fall a victim to gazing aimlessley at the black dots. You can do things such as challenge yourself to play all the notes in x scale in x amount of mesures or make up.stretching exercises that focus on timing and dexterity.

If you need any further help with that book dont be afraid to click on my name and send an email....

Dear Joe,

Yesterday I was stunned by your performance in Brussels; being a silent fan for more than 10 years now, I really was so excited to see you perform live. Especially since a good friend (who is not a fan) offered the ticket as my birthday present in january this year.

Finally I had a chance to see and hear one of my musical idols: the icon of rock. This should be it. This day would serve as personal memorial day.

When the concert started I could not enjoy any of your songs and I had to leave early. Why? Your play was close too perfection, your song selection was great, your fellow musicians gave every inch. So why did I have to leave and feel morose?

The concert was way too loud for me. As a matter of fact it still hurts my ears today. That’s absolutely not what I hoped for and had expected. In comparison to the Framptone song and the intimacy of recording of your last album with Andulusia, imo one of your best songs ever. On the contrary I still feel very sad and stupid.

Never look back and never expect anything from life. Otherwise despair and disappointment will be your part. Here on the edge, with 100,000 fans ready to poach my skin for being a critic, all I can do is being honest with about what I felt last night in Brussels.

Anyway, all the best.

Kind regards,

Hey everyone.....I stumbled across something interesting today....just checking on Joe's Wikipedia article>

From Wikipedia:

"It was revealed on May 29, 2008 that Satriani is involved in a new hard rock project with former Van Halen members Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith. The band, that will feature Hagar on vocals, Satriani on guitar, Anthony on bass and Smith on drums, is currently tentatively called "Chickenfoot" and is currenly writing material and getting ready for the recording of their debut album which will start in the summer."

Maybe I missed something, but where and when was this announced?

Can the detective team help me out....if this is true I'm very curious....

Thanks

yo yo, guilty pleasures?

whats yours?

extreme pornografiti.

but nuno really plays awesome ly on this cd. check out flight of the wounded bumblebee and heman woman hater and get the funk out solo. saw them in concert over 10 years ago, and they were very good live. takes me back to when i was 14 or so! but budding guitarists check it out.

Okay, a few people have said Joe's shows on this tour are very loud, so here's a tip to all the fans going to upcoming shows...

TAKE SOME EARPLUGS!

It's a good idea to take them to every show just in case you need them. I've already seen people shove tissues in their ears because the band on stage was to loud for them. When yer going to a concert, they're gonna play at concert level. Save yer hearing, and enjoy the show :-)

Satch whore

Thanks for the good belly laugh al.

Well...Joe looks great holding yer guitar.

You like like...hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhell.

rotflmmfao!!!

You didn't use Joe's advice and "go turkey!"

Holy crap, that's my new prize picture now!

I have to look at it and laugh some more. LOL!

edit:

It gets funnier the longer I look at it!

edit 2:

I have to take a picture of it with my cell so when I'm at work and I need a laugh...I can just flip open my phone!

You look like just just got laid to be honest. lmao!!!

It's the hair al...it's the hair.....

well, the hair and the eyes.....

okay, the hair and the eyes and the I just got laid look on yer face.

ROTF!!!!

Hey Achoo...really cool tips there about the challenge and the metronome, thanks. I don't think I'll be satch standard however long I play, but maybe my older son will be someday. I was jamming with him earlier, I'd composed a wee thing on the bass and he started fiddling about in the higher ranges of his 6 string...in the same key...at 11 years old I think that's pretty good (and with zero theory behind him). Together it sounded coherent and could be the start of a whole new composition.
