Fun question of the day:
What will be the first sound we hear on the Chickenfoot album? A scream from Sammy? Or one from Joe's guitar? A cymbal crash from Chad or a bass intro from Mikey?
My money is on Sammy...
slanshroom - Little do you know that sneaking off to Groom Lake is my actual plan, and I'm only asking about all of these other possible things to do as a way to throw people off my trail. ;-)
burlly - Very cool... I was just getting into Van Halen when they were on the Balance tour (they were even part of the plot in an episode of MTV's Road Rules), and I remember all the hype when Human's Being from the Twister soundtrack hit the radio. And then they ditched Sammy.
I was about 13 at the time, and looking forward to seeing the band on their next tour, so that REALLY sucked.
Van Halen has done so little since then...but Sammy has released 6 studio albums, 1 live album, and 3 live DVDs. So it was easy for me to just keep following him. I went back and got into Montrose (through some bootlegs) around this time too.
Man, discovering bands pre-internet was fun...
hybes - Cool...definitely let me know what you think. There's a pretty big perception that DMB makes guitar pop music for drunk college students, and it's sometimes hard for people to get around that (or to get used to rock music with a sax and violin instead of electric guitars, haha).
But their drummer is amazing (I'd put him in third place among active drummers, behind Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater and Neil Peart of Rush), and with the way their whole band improvises they're really much more jazz than pop when they play live.
You should be able to find any of the three albums I mentioned at Best Buy or any halfway decent music store.
js1200js1000 - I don't know any BLS, but I like Zakk Wylde quite a bit. I've tried to see that band before but it's just never worked out...I'm glad you had fun, though. :-)
bluegrass convert - Joe sold his Hagstrom years ago...he's said in interviews that wishes he had held onto it for sentimental reasons...
Yoda55 - Welcome to the site! Tell us a bit about yourself...
Igneousiceman - One Big Rush? Nice find!
scubadaz - Awesome! I took a marine biology class in college, and one day we all went out on a boat, dredged the bottom of the ocean, and looked at everything we pulled up. We caught quite a few of those guitarfish...they were very cool to look at.
In fact, I mentioned that on this site way back when. I included some links that are now dead, but I'm posting this now because I also included links to two pictures of Satch wearing THE pants. So that's at least worth a look.
Listening to: Sammy Hagar - Marching To Mars (current song: Both Sides Now)

So did Joe play the Halo themesong?
The Halo 2 soundtrack was mostly composed by Martin O'Donnell, who had composed the music of Halo. Steve Vai provided guitar backing for many tracks. Additional tracks were also provided by various outside musicians, such as Joe Satriani (for the remixed theme song, which includes new guitar solos).
Is this accurate?

js1200js1000:-Don't know about anyone else here, but me and Ozzy_Fudd are both major BLS fans. Got all the CD's,including Zakk's Pride and Glory album, as well as all BLS DVD's. Zakk and the boys really know how to thump out the goods,as well as all of Zakk's work with Ozzy Osbourne. Zakk ROCKS like a good rockin' thing! C'MON AUSSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

scubadaz - Haha...yeah, I guess my memory is pretty good. But when something has a cool name like "shovelnose guitarfish" it's easy. And wow...I can't believe that was six years ago.
Guitarman77897 - Satch doesn't have anything to do with Halo.
Steve Vai played guitar on a version of the Halo 2 theme...I think it's available on a soundtrack CD somewhere. As far as I know, though, he only played guitar on the one track. Although I just looked at his Wikipedia page and it says he played on a total of three tracks for the game (the mix of the theme, Never Surrender, and Reclaimer).
Vai has played the theme live a few times...he sometimes opened with it (informally, mixed in with noodling) at some shows on his 2005 Real Illusions tour, and he played it as a guest at a Video Games Live gig at the Hollywood Bowl.
fatape / js1200js1000 - I have a Guitar World compilation CD from the early 90s (The Guitars That Rule The World) that includes a Zakk Wylde solo piece called Farm Fiddlin'. Most of his song is chicken pickin' and sounds like nothing what he does with Ozzy, but it's very cool. I'm not sure if he's released it elsewhere...maybe you've heard it?
The whole CD is great, actually, and is well worth getting if you can find it anywhere. There's a Volume 2 as well, but I think the first one is my favorite.
I bought these albums before I got into Satch, and I think it's neat that so many of these guitarists would go on to play with him (or have other connections to related people)...Yngwie Malmsteen, Paul Gilbert, Zakk Wylde, Richie Kotzen, Alex Lifeson, Billy Sheehan, and Robert Fripp, to name a few...

theres usually a lot of violence in rival football teams in some countries... theres usually all sorts of events and fights organised too towards match days, it happens a lot more than you'd think
i remember a while back there was a columbian footballer who missed a penalty and got killed a few days after because of it, its nuts, but people do get passionate about it a lot and get into it, its mad

Actually, he didn't miss a penalty kick, he scored an own goal... People blamed him for Colombia losing 2-1 against the U.S. and not making it through... Weeks after the players got back, he got shot six times...
His name was Andres Escobar

Skippy, good idea.
I tried to buy them on the site, but for some reason my credit card went ballistic after that with charges for all sorts of weird things like gums, phonography, and other weird stuff. It got so full I had to cancel it and take out a loan to pay it back.
I still haven't received any packages of all this stuff, so maybe I was jipped?
Anyway.
Joe, there's a comment you'll play some of your own stuff in the Chickenfoot concerts. How about something left-field like "Dog with crown and Earring"? That'd be fun to listen to live.

Al, most definitely... People need to remember that sports are supposed to be for entertainment... My life is now much simpler since I realized the world is not going to end if I miss my favorite team's game next weekend... Crazy people...

blaze, I do not, but I own a JSX amp and I love it! I just bought an EH tube zipper and when run through the crunch channel and the right tweak sounds like, oddly enough, Eric Johnson!!! I'm not even playing a strat!!! Eventually I'll get to the perfect setting, right now I'm just goofing around with the thing... too many odd sounds... Yesterday, I made it sound like birds singing, I don't even know how...
