Everybody with Skype ( i believe it is necessary ) try this Satch Chat while the satriani web chat is out of function.

This is my first post, so hi everybody!

About Coldplay: The main melody is almost exactly the same as Satch's. Different key, yes, but anyone can change that... However, it's a very catchy tune, and I think they could've probably come up with it too.

lol, I can't help noticing how they use that passage all the way through the song, whereas Satch only uses it as the chorusy thingy. (shows how they can only come up with one thing and snatch it and repeat it over and over again)

For all the Cappucino Campitelli fans out there :)

T-Bones, Look at the dimples on that guy!

lol!

Finally some good stuff on our fave drummer!

chelle, I knew u of all others would appreciate some Jeffy C :)

So cute!! And freakin nice besides :) And oh yeah, a "decent" drummer, LOL!!

The campitelli links are great. Jeffs bios in top link say he has played with the squares and satriani and no one else. Maybe thats what AWMAWY is about. . mamba 9052's picture/video UTube post gets it. AWMAWY

Do The Stu...hi! Michelle....hi! Satriella....hi! Joe...Hi!

Andy of Uk, yes we were at Brixton too, don't remember Joe being carried off...those aliens were getting to him all that time ago then....

Do the Stu - Thanks for the info. I am amazed I have never picked up on that before. Sports Center is the nightly ritual before bed. Strange. I guess ESPN didn't want to pay a couple of dollars for the usage eh? Too bad. Shoot, so many of his songs would be GREAT highlight tunes.

Have a blast davy!

Hey guitarhead it looks that is it for the euro ones at least.

Keniko, if you can get into the other band, go for it! They sound pretty good :-) Just a little taste is their tastiest tune. lol!

Ally, my fireworks go thud, boom, and make whistles. Yer fireworks go woo woo woo wooooooo! lol! Good stuff either way.

Austin, Watermelon, Fourth of July, Viagra and fireworks all in the same sentence...haha. Sounds like Love American Style to me. lol!

Check this out - frank zappa duels steve vai. 'stevies spanking'

I never really need to see Steve's legs like that again. lmao!!

Here's Mike Nesmith & Frank - on The Monkees

For you youngin's, Google The Monkees if you don't know who they are. lol!

I feel so old!

Hi anibur!!

Cool video

Do The Stu: The Shinedown stuff I've heard does nothing to me. 45 and another song on radio, so maybe I should listen to more of their stuff, but so far it's just more of the same rock that seems to find its way to radio these days.

It's come to the point where I'd rather listen to the local NPR station than rock radio. Ironically, the same day we were at Downey, Shinedown was playing here in El Paso with Alter Bridge, some sort of street festival or something.

I really liked The Oddysey... until I heard Paradise Lost, their newest album. Now, The Odyssey sounds bland in comparison. Heck, even DT sounds bland compared to that album. If u didn't like the Odyssey, skip it and go for the new one. Even the artwork kicks butt.

King's X, I like most of their stuff up until Dogman. After that it's not that good. Dogman has a lot of very "singable" songs in many musical styles, it's the only album I kept (I had Faith Hope Love and the one that has Black Flag, sold them both). Know all the lyrics to it, which is rare for me. Get Dogman, then get their best of, and you're pretty much set. Then again, on the MP forum they recommend Faith Hope Love a lot, so u could try it as well.

dakawan: those are always good friends to have, the ones that work for cool bands! Now that Portnoy himself has confirmed that there will be a DVD of this tour, all that's left to find out is which show each song is from.

From where I was seated (stage right all the way back), I could see Tony wailing away on the chapman but I couldn't pick out his notes from the rest of the band. I even thought at some point that it was more of a gimmick. Now that I've seen the vids on Youtube and heard the NY bootleg, I know that it was just a matter of Petrucci's amp eating up everyone else's sound, at least where I was, don't know if it sounded differently in the rest of the venue. Do The Stu can answer this one.

Hi.. hope everybody is fine.

Old trip : i finally got my ten words : it is not a question of words with Joe Satriani.

bwabwahbwah..

Nevermind.

& as i prefer more & more express myself with music than words, here a song for Bass.

Bass Digression #1

There's a crap background breath onto that track. The reason is the amp, not a really good one. So the mp3 is very low. My apologies.

We're moving from the UK to Canada and so for the first time didn't buy tickets to see Joe in London earlier this year, as we didn't know at the time they went on sale whether we would be here (still don't have definite moving date). Just checking to see whether the tour will be stopping by our new home later in the year but see that there is no tour stop in Vancouver! We're gutted. So sorry we missed it and hope Vancouver will be a stop on the next tour.

Hey all , just wondering if anyone might have an answer for me. Don't get me wrong I love Stu Hamm , in fact, it was the deciding factor to go see Joe this year , but does anyone have any idea what happened with Dave LaRue ? Neither seem to have anything to say about each other and all seems pretty hush hush, does anyone got the scoop??
