Big Bunny, please tell Joe hello and hugs from Tracie and her son Chris. We are looking forward to the Fall US tour, but first we hope he has safe travels down under and to South America....and secondly that he has a great birthday in Aussie-land!! Eat plenty of good food, get lotsa rest, and hug a koala while yer there!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

*for Al* SLASH

STEVE

and the sweetest one and my fav - MR STU HAMM

Jamie less then 4 days to go here!! *EXCITEMENT!!*

Phil i've just sent you an email cause i didn't recieve your message for Joe...just reply to the one i've just sent, the one with the shredding kitten >=;)

top gun is a very homoerotic movie, just watch the beacj volleyball scene, apart from being very funny unintentionally, all that postering and body oil....hmmmmmmm.

BigBunny - thanks for the heads up. I've mailed it again, and will shoot my ISP once I know you've got it. Thanks again, very much appreciated.

AUSTRALIA i think, has the most poisonpus creatures in one place on earth, so Joe if you go for a paddle just check with the locals that the jelly fish arent in the sea en mass.

also watch out for them spiders they have, bloody lethal.

i wouldnt ever leave the house if i lived there except some spiders come up the loo and can bite ya on the arse, so id have to live in a big plastic bubble.

then theres the outback one of the most hostile places to mankind in the world, so dont go on a walkabout joe.

-Michelle: You are welcome! As i always say is good to interact with people.

-Everybody: Have you listen the song Not of this earth lately? don't you find Musterion is like a modern version of Not of this earth?

I see it like that and that's really cool for me...both are great songs. But they would'nt fit at the same concert I believe.

No one think the same way? They only sound similar at the begginig really ...similar but different... or... different, but similar...Anyway just check it out if you don't have something else to do. LOL....

Saludos desde Argentina esperando ansiosamente el 25 de Julio

DTS-SUPER COLOSSAL

just love this tune, maybe its like kashmir, this songs gonna keep walking nd aint nothing gonna stop it, love the riff and the main guitar melody.

i just like its plodding beat.

like lightening is a cool song if ya out walking in the town, snappy and sharp.

also DTS-remeber i love sci-fi, so thats might affect my choices, i love joe's tunes because they let loose my imagination ( a scary place), but many songs i think of visually as well as sonically.

So I'm a bit slow, but we passed 100,000 members here recently...cool!

Joe Satrini - I'm not sure about Banana Mango taking 14 years to get right. There are two versions of that, but the gap from Joe's first EP to Time Machine isn't that long. I think I remember hearing that Time has roots back in the SWTA days...maybe that's what you're thinking of? It's not quite 14 years from SWTA to CP, but it's still more than a decade...

I know JM's leaving was discussed here on T2J, but I just did a brief search and couldn't find anything. One of the posters here (PhryDom, I think it was) was able to contact JM through his website and get some info. That was then posted here, and Joe posted a reply or two. I remember JM saying he left and Joe saying he was fired; it was after a tour where JM's band Einstein was opening for Joe (or was it G3...?)...

Anyhoo, it's cool to hear that you've been into Satch for such a long time. I'm at about the 10 year mark right now...that's been a long time on its own, but it's only about half of his career so far. It would've been so cool to hear SWTA back when it was released...::sigh:: ;-)

Let me know when you get a chance to read my SC stuff...

Yeah, this LTE mini-tour was such a surprise...it's lucky for me that they played a show so close to home, but I probably would have flown across the country to see them if I had to. As I posted here before, Acid Rain is the first John Petrucci song I heard...it was recommended by someone here at T2J ahead of the G3 2001 tour. And that really turned me on to Dream Theater and some other bands...I need to go look through the archives and see who made that first suggestion.

I graduated college two years ago, and I started working at the local newspaper (Long Beach Press-Telegram) about six months before that. I'm still doing that now, sorta, but as of three months ago I work out of Torrance and also copy edit stuff for the Daily Breeze. So it's almost twice the work for the same pay...boo. I still love it though.

I love the area here...every few months I get an itch to up and move somewhere, but it doesn't last long. A new start would be fun sometime, though, so we'll just have to wait and see...

And I see you've just made a few other posts but I've gotta go...I'll get to them later.

Starry Night is an excellent song...I miss it. It's not in my satriani.com setlist at the moment but it probably should be. It's cool to see you pick up on the Not Of This Earth / Musterion similarity. I think they'd be great in the same concert though, and they're listed 1-2 on my setlist.

You should fill out your setlist here (from the link on the main "interact" page)...I'd be interested in seeing it.

Hey folks just back from a washed out camping experience. Didn't see the scenery it was too wet. Good to be home to running water and hot showers and a way to make coffee....

Anyway Michelle, I've been listening to LTE, one thing I could do on my hols. Osmosis....I think so far my favourite.

Phil got your email...put your message at the top of the list. >=:)

Stevee T if you read this don't forget I owe you a message to Joe! >=:o)

Do the Stu : I had just arrange my setlist today i'll copy it for you later. Give me a little time.

Big Bunny: What is your connection with Joe? I'm intrested. How can you make him to read our messages? I wanna contact with him before he comes to Argentina and also as he stays here. Can i Write more than one message?

Saludos a todos los Satrianeros!!!

Rock & Roll nena!

Victoria, I didn't even know LTE existed! lol! I'll have to check it out. Sorry yer camping trip was a wash out. Independence Day is a wash out so far too. It's raining, and the fire works that were scheduled for tonight have been cancelled. We still have tomorrow's fireworks, but if it's raining, they're a wash too. We really need the rain though. It's just falling on the wrong weekend!

Hawaiian Funk

Whew - that gets the bass in my speakers booming!

Liquid Trio Experiment - Jazz Odyssey

My husband is painting our lemon yellow bathroom (eek!) a gray color called cathedral stone. It's gonna look like a bat cave by the time he's done, I just know it. lol!

Al, I had a bunch of pics printed out yesterday from the shore and stuff. I HAD to get the pic of you and Joe printed out so I can hang it next to my computer screen. That's a feckin laugh riot there I tell ya! Thanks for being such a great source of entertainment! lol!

That's it. THat would be a perfect show for me on july 25. Not the only possiblitie...But a perfect one.

chojuaniche Big Bunny: What is your connection with Joe? I'm intrested. How can you make him to read our messages? I wanna contact with him before he comes to Argentina and also as he stays here. Can i Write more than one message?

Big Bunny: You are so sweet...thank you a lot BB!!! it's really greatful from you giving Joe our messages. That's really kind of your part....

Here is my message to Joe:

Joe: I'm Juan from Argentina waiting to see your performance on July 25. Me and my friend Pablo are very excited because we just wanna rock with you and the band !!! Man, do you realize what you can cause in people hearts and minds just with the sound of your music??? You make me cry with that playing. What I would like most is you to see the video I upload in youtube searching with the words "Juan Pico Satriani" . It's me doing some juggling improvisation while listening "Always with me..always with you". Just for you to know how you can inspire your fans, all that juggling is because of your guitar. You are Big!!! see you on July 25...Best Wishes and Happy Birthday on july 15.

HEY JOE

Check out Juan's (chojuaniche) video. He does great tricks with his...balls....to AWM,AWY. Maybe it's g3Joe worthy?

;-)

oh yeah - Happy 37th birthday KOKO

Gustavo Guerra playing Crushing Day! simply amazing, he nails the hammeron parts so well

>.<

Guitarman77897, no, not yet. Joe has been too busy with his European tour, a lil vacation, and now off to other parts of the world :) I imagine we'll catch up with him for it later this year, Mick is on top of things :)

Austin, yeah, thanks, I figgered out the Nascar video a bit ago, but this video from chelle was longer. Hope to see you, and possibly the family in Reno then :)

Jamie, the skinny comment came from that fact that a) you ARE tall and thin and b) you've had tooth problems where u haven't been able to eat, ergo u must be getting skinnier!! You'll blow away in a high wind if u aren't careful :)

Victoria, too bad about the lousy camping weather, but I hear what yer saying about making it home in one piece and enjoying the conveniences again :)

Chelly....grey....bat cave....yyyyyyep, sounds about right for....what was his name....Henry? He IS one of the fambly by now, idn't he?

Do the Stu - Yep. Good headphones...especially for the price. It's amazing what MP3 players have done for the headphone market. If you ever start looking for another very good fairly inexpensive headphone...purchase the Sennheiser HD280 Pro. You sound like someone who likes some good detailed bass. You can pick these up under 100 dollars. AMAZING sound on all ends of the sound spectrum. there is one huge downside to these however. They are circumaural, meaning they actually go around your entire ear. They are not something that you'd EVER wear in public. But if you want a good listen around the house, this is arguably the best you can buy for under 100 dollars. I like those Sony's you have. They took the DJ models and shrunk them down. And you can never go wrong with Sony. Before I saved up the money to get a set of Shure's, Sony was my first In Ear Canal earbud. I think they were 49 dollars and looking back at the quality and where pricing is now....that was a steal.

I hope everyone here is enjoying a very happy and safe 4th of July.
