17.5%?!? Are they creating rolling blackouts for appearance sake too?
Hmmm I've never experienced vibrating balls at a concert before. Though the hair on my neck would get erect lol...

To anyone who was at the Adelaide show or wants to see more Joe, keep an eye on http://www.youtube.com/user/tamakado to see a few snippets of footage from the concert from Thursday night. Joe blew my mind. Thank you for a performance of a lifetime.

John-The guitar is nice but it's $900, If I had that much I would just get a JSguitar, I need one for about $500, and so far all I have found is the Ibanez RG Edge III
I think that is what I am going to get, but I have to try it out first of course.
A versatile, affordable rocker's weapon.
This Ibanez RG electric guitar's pickups and pickup placement provide the hard-edged cutting tone needed for heavy rock. With a bridge humbucker, middle single coil, and neck humbucker, you'll never run out of tone options.
As heavy as it rocks, this RG guitar is made of basswood, a comparatively lightweight wood, which makes it very comfortable for extended playing. With a good balance of highs and lows, basswood sits right between alder and mahogany in sound character. The guitar's flamed maple top not only adds beauty, but just a bit of extra brightness to make individual notes stand out. 24 frets offer easy playing for leads and chording and the Edge III tremolo bridge lets you divebomb all night long. A locking nut helps keep you in tune.
Since 1987, many players have selected the Ibanez RG as their weapon of choice for visiting sonic mayhem on the metal masses. With the right choice of pickups and flat, fast necks, the RG guitar has crunched its way to classic status.
Ibanez RG Edge III Electric Guitar Features:
Body Type: Solid
Body Wood: Basswood
Top Wood: Flamed Maple
Neck Joint: Bolt On
Neck Wood: Maple 3pc
Fretboard: Bound Rosewood
Neck Shape: U
# Frets: 24
Inlay: Sharktooth
Nut Width: 43mm
Fretboard Radius: 400mmr
Bridge: Edge III
Pickup Bridge: Ibz Inf4
Pickup Middle: Ibz Infs3
Pickup Neck: Ibz Inf3
Tuners: Die-Cast
Finish: Transparent Gloss
(should I get Transparent Blue or Transparent Grey Burst?)
Well I am gonna try and play it today, I have to shop around but I don't know if I will find any thing better (well for $500)
off to Guitar Center, good n loud music, guitarshop etc (WARD-BRODT MUSIC HALL GOT RID OF THEIR GUITARS AND GOT MORE PIANOS!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!)

And also, what strings should I get? What gauge does Joe use the majority of the time?
And what cables does everybody recommend? I have a pair that has a life time warranty, they worked for about two years then the connection became loose and now makes really loud annoying crackling sounds when they are moved.
I would take them back because of the lifetime warranty but
Music-go-Round's lease was up and moved before I could go, so I need some new ones.
Tell me some accessories I should get. I have a capo and tuner, but anything that will help I will probably get.
thanx 4evrything

Get 0.9 Elixers, last forever, i used to use D'addario's and EB's for years, but made the switch cause ive usualy 3 guitars on the go at the same time and dull strings after a week or so suck
Planet waves are a happy medium between cables, or george l's
and get a metranome
Have fun in Aussie

Woohoo...I just bought my HOB San Diego ticket. Is anyone else going to that show?
Blue_Moon - Cool...the video looks good. And I like the backing.
Satriella - You know a secret about me? Uh oh...can you give me any hints? ;-)
If you dig around on the internet, I bet you can find a program that will transfer your music from your iPod to your new computer so you don't have to spend hours and hours re-ripping everything. Maybe you can have someone else find the program for you and give it to you on a disk, if you don't have internet access on that computer?
Zinc Master - Thanks for the DT info. I knew that release was coming...it's good to see that it's sooner rather than later.
...Austin...

I hope your tour is going great, I have purchased tickets for your show in NY in October, (including the meet and greet) I have seen you many times during your career and I eagerly looking forwarding to taking my stepson to see you then. His name is kevin and he is 16, he has been playing about a year and is head over heels about your music.
Hey thanks for sharing your talents with us, be safe and Rock on!

Do the Stu, I've got one of Opeths Albums, Damnation, which I believe Steven Wilson was involved with. It's a great album too. Steven Wilson seems to have a finger in every pie....

Would love to buy PREM tickets to the Pa show 10/11/08, supposed to go on sale today, but they are not. Do not know who to contact about this. The venue does not have any info on the PREM tickets. Anyone have any idea how to purchase these tickets???

ohiorick, Ticketmaster says there will be no premium tickets for the Pittsburg, PA show....as well as the Buffalo, NY show.
So it looks like you're outta luck :((( Sorry about that. But things can change, keep watching the road page to see if you get a link. Meanwhile, tickets for your venue are on sale to the general public now....
:(
