gitarist182- probablly not. helps to know someone. just had to say i miss amsterdam though. Barneys breakfast Bar!! awsome grub and pretty good veed.

got those wisdom teeth out today.. just about 2 hours ago...

kinda hurts right now... still a bit numb so once that wears off... oh boy.

Do The Stu,

I have never seen any of them in concert so anyone would be fine with me! Just as long as Joe is there!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As a matter of fact, try not to laugh to hard, I have only been to one concert in my life and I'm not saying what that was! Yes, is pathetic, I know..... I'm just now where I can afford to do such things.

Joe! Please sory me fo such question... But

How we can see you in Ukraine???

Thanks.

RIP Tim Russert

I always like to listen to that guy...

Kilgelec, I think whatever you carry on has to fit in the overhead storage. You can prolly check it, but then who knows how it's gonna be handled. I say google music stores wherever you're going, and just stop in and play every other day or so. lol! Either that, or buy a pack of bass strings to carry with you and rub yer fingers on them throughout the day. LOL! I'm sure there's a seasoned guitar player on here who can answer yer q waaaay better than I have. lol!

Thanks Michelle,

I just emailed a store about 2 blocks from where I will be next week and hopefully they can help me solve my delimma!

Sammy Hagar told the Canadian Press in a recent interview, that he has teamed up with acclaimed guitarist Joe Satriani, drummer, Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Michael Anthony, to form a super group dubbed as "Chickenfoot". Sammy said, the group has already written 8 songs, and plan to be in studio before Labor Day 2008. "When people hear the music, it’s Led Zeppelin. It’s as good as that. I know that’s a mighty bold statement… We could rival Zep." When asked about Van Halen, Sammy said this, "I’m really not interested in being in that band right now. I’m so much more interested in our little Chickenfoot project".

"To me that’s 10 times Van Halen, because it’s functional, we all like each other."

Het Joe, I was wondering how do you get inspired when you make or create your music. And who is your idols or inspirations that got you started in playing guitar.

I'm listening to Achilles Last Stand right now, which I say is Led Zeppelin's best song by far. Who agrees?

I think it's just about at the point where we can rule out a late-August start to the tour (good news for me, as I have other concert commitments then). That's only two months from now, and that's a rather short lead time. I guess we'll find out at some point. ;-)

I don't mind at all if Chickenfoot is pushing everything back. I'm really excited to hear what they can come up with after spending quality time writing and recording.

I think it'd work out where Joe can finish the international PSATMOR tour, record with Chickenfoot, do the US PSATMOR tour, and then maybe tour with Chickenfoot (depending on how the album does)?

That all sounds good to me, as long as the break in Joe's solo tour doesn't result in Stu leaving/being replaced.

I made the mistake of letting up on the drugs and the ice after about the first 24 hours, and that made days two and three really rough.

Let us know how you're doing...

And michelle answered your question, but...

I don't know how things have changed post-9/11, but prior to that it was fairly easy to take a guitar on a plane. I've never done it, but you take it through security like a carry-on and then hand it to a flight attendant once you get on the plane. It usually gets stored in a closet somewhere up front.

I only fly somewhere once or twice a year, but I don't recall seeing even one guitar on a plane since 9/11. I guess maybe the strings can be considered weapons? I'd call your airline and ask. I guess you could bring one without strings, and then just buy a pack when you get to wherever you're going. But that's a hassle...so I think your plan of just going to a local store is the best decision.

Joe's biggest influence is Jimi Hendrix. Joe quit the football team the day he heard Jimi died and focused on guitar 100%. And from there, well... ;-)

Du The Stu

To tell you 10

leevee breaks is one of my fave zep songs to, quite apt to as we had all them floods here last year. theres a photo of bonhams grave on wikepedia, save me posting one. i went this week, to photograph the sunset, its a good spot, there USA, canadian flags, about 600 drumsticks,and peeps have left zep cds, one which had the message 'this is avalon for a drummer'.

surprising to me,i did nt think we got many visitors in little old worcestershire.

i think joe satriani would be to busy to give guitar lessons now.

Take It Easy,,,

O.K. I can't seem to find the questions I ask so I'm going to ask again, I'm not even sure if I posted it or forgot to hit post lol.

I was wondering, Joe, have you or is your music at all influenced by drugs? And are you planning on going to the Gorge at George, WA or the Spokane Arena(better for me, I'm a lot closer) in any U.S. tours? It would rock to see you live, man.

Hey joe, [no hendrix reference haha :) ]
