Hi Joe…..
I am sure people always ask you questions about your fingers and the condition of them and I know there are obviously problems that can accrue such as, Carpel tunnel, aches and pains, blisters…. Ext…ext…… But do you or have you ever suffered from back or shoulder pains due to all those years of standing on stage supporting your guitar around your neck?.
I seem to be suffering from aches and pains in my neck and shoulder muscles, I just want to know if that could be down to me not supporting my guitars the right way?..... or just a few bad night sleeps…..ha ha
Take Care,
Dave

I heard the BB King song the Thrill is gone twice out of nowhere randomly yesterday was weird, still never heard Joe's songs in the olympics, and ive watched lots of it!? Is it the American coverage or in highlights that its added? i havnt heard it once!!
Gotta love the asians though!
The walking run race thing is on, they look ridiculous, and all the chicks have like no boobs... sucks
and DR strings are nice too, there more like da darios than elixers and last a reasonable amout of time too, Ive a black set on one of my strats here, a fun thing to do is get 2 different coloured sets and use half from each, it looks cool, ive pink and black here

Hi Joe, New Fan here.
Love your music, I dont think there is one song Ive heard that I didnt like....
Can you give me some tips to writing songs...
Most of the time I will come up with a chord progression/riff, but cant build on it.... I must have like 20 riffs written that are not finished, thus my talent is not getting demonstrated to other people.... any tips?
I dont want to sit all day long trying to come up with something....
Also can you give me tips on writing modal music.... thanks....
I watched your Satch Zone video, the one where you talked about your influences etc.... I liked the improvising in the background so much, that it inspired me to write a song like that....
so far I have a begining, and as usually now I'm stuck.....
can you give me an explanation on some chords I can use for spacish Lydian sound.... Thanks Joe...
My begining progression is C5/D5 arpegiated... ( If this will help you answer the question...
Another question, why does Clydian sounds good over D5? If we play D5 and solo with Gscale wont that be mixolydian mode?
So why does C5/D5 chord progression sounds good with C lydian?
Thanks Joe....
Keep Rocking and inspiring young minds to play guitar....
You're the reason I started learning modes in the first place....
Your music cannot be described in words....
P.S. Are you ever coming to WA, Seattle?
I would like to see you live so much....
Peter, your new fan!

Yeah we americans suck at relay races =D
one of the people that work with my mom was in the olympics once, it was either sydney or saltlake city. some running event.
So what strings does Joe use. I got some D'addarios .011-.042 Blues/jazz rock
My guitar just wont stay tuned, so far I think it is still the new strings adjusting, but it's been two days, my D'addarios never takes longer that on night.
Even when I lock the end they still get intuned.
All for now

Just got my results today, 7 A*'s and 4 A's (which is good apparently). I am quite chuffed, as an A in Maths was not really expected until this last year in school. (it's never been a strongpoint you see...) I now have a perma-smile...=D

So you're saying I got 8 packs of the wrong strings!?
And before my bridge was too low now it;s too high.
I barely got to play it, now it's broken again. wasted a trip to guitarcenter. tried fixing it myself, but I accidently released the springs, so I had to put those back on. now I can either get it in tune, or I can have a straight bridge, but I can't get both.
AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I REGRET GETTING A FLOATING BRIDGE SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love it when it is fixed but hate fixing it. It is sooo much work and sooo many adjustments.

@Guitarman 77897:
Setting up a floyd rose bridge can be pretty simple,
First, loose the "fine tune" screws on the bridge all the way (by turning them clockwise) and then adjust them half a turn.
Put the strings on the guitar but don't tune them all the way (just adjust them 'till they get a bit tense).
Now adjust the springs in the back of the guitar twisting the screws SLOOOWLY and Doing just A QUARTER TURN A TIME EACH untill the bridge is just in the position you want (Also make sure the screws are equally "into" the guitars body, i.e. the metal plate is parallel to the side where the screws are added)...
Once the bridge is in the position you want it, tune the strings starting in the low E. As the tension in the strings increases the bridge is gonna move, so you have to adjust the springs again (REMEMBER, TURN THE SCREWS SLOWLY AND EVENLY) this will vary the tension in the strings, therefore it will go out of tune, that's normal.
Retune the guitar, and adjust again the springs, repeat untill the guitar keeps in tune and the bridge is at the height you desire.
It shouldn't take you more than 5-6 cycles, otherwise you may want to stretch the strings by pulling upwards each string separately so the weight of the guitar helps you stretch it.
Once everything is perfect lock the neck and you're ready to go! You'll never regret a floyd rose bridge again ;)

Sorry for being relatively quiet for a few days...I've had a bit of a crazy schedule with all the concerts I've been going to. I have one more DMB show tomorrow, and then I have a bit of a break...
mariusar - In the case of the Olympics, I'm not sure if artists get paid at all for the use of their music. I don't know what international rules are in place, but China is under no obligation to follow US copyright law or royalty agreements. That's not a shot at China...it'd be true with any two countries.
In the US, when music is played over stereos at bars, restaurants, or similar places, artists get paid through writing/publishing groups (ASCAP or BMI). I think those payments are made on an estimated basis, based on limited audits those companies do. So a band like Led Zeppelin or Aerosmith makes a great deal more from these deals than someone like Satch will. But we aren't talking any huge money here...the payments are rather small.
I think the same arrangement is in place when things are broadcast on TV, but some networks might cut individual deals with the songwriters/publishers/record companies. I'm not quite sure how that works. But people do get paid.
sercro - Sorry for my late reply, but thanks for sharing. I got into Satch through the first G3 album as well, and it's always cool to hear about other people coming across his music the same way.
Anyway, again...welcome to the site.
Igneousiceman - Ah...give Firefly a shot. The movie Serenity is shorter, yeah, but the TV show came first and I think it's a bit better. So start with that. There were only 14 episodes made before the show was cancelled...you can buy the series on DVD for about $30 (US dollars).
It's a space western (but don't let that stop you if you don't like westerns...I generally don't, and I love this show) set 500 years in the future. There was a big civil war, with the main character fighting on the losing side. He became a smuggler after the war. If I were to greatly oversimply the plot, you could say it's set in a Star Wars universe without aliens and the show revolves around a Han Solo-type and his crew.
I hate to compare this show to Star Wars, as it's quite different from that, but that's the easiest way to describe it briefly. The main character isn't your typical hero, either...he's very dark.
It's excellent television...check it out.
Mikel Thomas - Hi...welcome to the site. It's cool to hear that your daughter is into Satch at such a young age.
acortesi - Welcome to you as well...what's your favorite Satch album?
Joe Satrini - Back when Joe was working onwould become SBM, he asked all of us here to suggest some album titles. I came up with a lot of stupid ones, I'm sure, but one of my favorites was something along the lines of "Swimming in a Sea of Chrome." My reasoning was the same as yours, kinda...he's done Dreaming, Surfing, and Flying, but no swimming.
gotta have Joe - Come join us at the San Francisco show...it's a weekend, can't you find a way to make it work? ;-)
...Austin...
