Wooooo, way t go Barack-O!!!

Who's getting excited about the Canada/US tour starting in a few weeks?

Wish I was going, kicking myself I didn't go to more than 1 show when Joe was in Oz.

What songs do you hope he has on the set list?

I would love to see him play:

Psycho Monkey (how good is the bass in that?)
Hands In The Air
Motorcycle Driver
The Extremist
The Mystical Potato Head Groove Thing
Satch Boogie
Crushing Day
Overdriver
Flying in a Blue Dream
Ice 9
Lords of Karma
Friends
Cryin
Rubina
Summer Song
Revelation
Just Look Up
Out of The Sunrise
Ten Words
SWTA

and then every other song he has :0)

Yes, aftershow names are drawn 3-4 days before each show.

There's actually a feature here at satriani.com where you can create your own setlist and have it show up in your profile. Click the "interact" tab up top and you'll see it as one of the options there.

If you click my name next to my post you'll see my picks. I've left out most of Satch's "hits", but hey...it's my setlist. ;-)

Ah! Thanks Austin, gee I could be the webmaster we think along the same lines!

Do you really think the member set lists are reviewed before each show? Does anybody post the current stats as to the members' most listed songs?

I notice you play bass - do you play in a band Austin?

Would you believe one of my good friends is a sports journalist and he went to Beijing to cover the Olympics - he tends to to do the 'colour" stories about the place and culture as well as covering cycling and other events. Unfortuantely the day before the Opening Ceremony he was doing a story with a Kung Fu master who didn't understand English and apparently thought he was asked to execute some move on my friend, and picked him up and dropped him on his head at which point my friend was taken to hospital and put in a neck brace and missed the Opening Ceremony.

He did his subsequent pieces to camera without the brace but had to put it back on when not taping.

Joe Satrini - Got it from PMT music in Northampton, they don't advertise to have them on their website, but they do have them!

Ah just watched the replay of the lovely Rafa winning his 2nd round match at the US Open.

Jamie I just watched your vid it is fantastic - did you get Flying In a Blue Dream too? Was that the Friday night or the Saturday night?

Thanks for the info on Vai. It looks like everyone is pointing to Passion and Warfare, so I think that's my first stop. I really like his Jemini pedal. That's got some great tone!

Wish the heck I could get the feel of this 24 fret guitar! The neck just seems so long. Different. This guitar also has EMG pickups. I have never played EMG's before. I am pretty impressed. Good tone between the 2. Very different. Now if I could just get up and down the fretboard, I'd be all set!! :)

Hey Joe.... when are you coming to india to perform again.... your visit to india is much awaited.....i want to attent your concert.......plz reply to this message....plz come to New Delhi.

kenicko-doin good thanks for asking. wife and i just had a baby boy born yesterday. she didn't like any of my names; she wants an american name even though we live in Israel. so i'm not sure i like her choice, but how can i argue (o.k. she is a woman) with a name like Joey. wanted to name him after Joes son Zacharia (spl?) but she said out here the name always gets changed and its a name that is outdated.

still don't have my amplifier ready to go, need a transformer. Regarding the guitar, i already have a JS1000 but still want to get that same sound with 24frts. theres not a lot of choices that i see. ibanez, and jackson.

hahahahahaaaa!

Oh boy! If McCain gets voted in and something happens to him, this will be our feckin' President - fux sake man - it doesn't get much funnier than that!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sen. John McCain tapped little-known Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to be his running mate on Friday in a startling selection on the eve of the Republican National Convention.

Palin's selection shocked numerous Republican officials.

At 44, Palin is a generation younger than Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware, who is Barack Obama's running mate on the Democratic ticket.

She is three years Obama's junior, as well -- and McCain has made much in recent weeks of Obama's relative lack of experience in foreign policy and defense matters.

In response to McCain's choice, Bill Burton, a spokesman for the Obama campaign, said:

"Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency. Governor Palin shares John McCain's commitment to overturning Roe v. Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush's failed economic policies -- that's not the change we need, it's just more of the same."

In making his pick, McCain passed over several more prominent prospects who had figured in speculation for months -- Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge among them.

Guess the bottle stopped spinning over her name and she won the prize. lmao!!

Good story if ya want a laugh.

Skippygirl-that setlist is missing surfing, you can't forget surfing! But I would love if he played that.

Does he choose one setlist for a tour or does each city have a different one?
