You know I'm glad the Coldplay stuff is over too, and I'm really glad Joe fans aren't anything like Coldplay fans. I was reading through articles on the case and ended up at one of their fan sites. Those people have got something... Not sure what to call it.
I bet Michelle could describe it quite well...
I do have a little gripe, though... I kinda feel like Joe's public relations team is understaffed or something.. I mean, I'm not saying anyone is doing a bad job or anything. It just seems to me that Jon usually handles Joe's PR stuff, and I would imagine he is swamped with CF stuff; keeping both websites up, new videos, the tour, etc... It would be nice to have someone dedicated to bringing us Joe news..Like:
-An update on the Paris DVD
-An explanation on the switch back to Marshall
-New gear in development??
-Joe's plans after the tour
-Updating stuff like the guitar gallery on here, and maybe a section that describes what gear Joe is currently touring with and how it is set up. It would be nice to see Joe's guitar collection and rig setup that is more recent than the Crystal Planet era.
I could go on, but I think I've said enough, and my message is too long already.
Am I the only one that feels this way?? If so I'll shut my mouth. I appreciate being able to connect like this and the random shout outs from Joe, but I see some other musicians that keep their fans a lot more informed than I feel we are sometimes.

I hear ya TURBO. I'm hungry for some news on all those fronts. It's hard being patient when we live in a society of instant info, (i.e the internet) It was much harder being a fan back in the day when you had to check your literal mailbox for hardcopy fan newsletter. Have we become spoiled? Absolutely. Do I still want news? Yep.
hehe

Agreed TURBO. I'm especially interested in the plans after the CF tour is over.
I'm glad to hear the Coldplay case is over, i just hope it went the right way. The fact that it ended while Joe's on tour worries me a bit.

cheese; congrats on the tix!! must be somethin real special to not only have both your parents still with you, but 65 years is totally awesome! obviously a love story for sure!
anyone out there happen to work in Human Resources and prescreens resumes or does the hiring? looking for critique on my resume. i live in RI in the U.S. and this state entered the recession first and looks like we'll be the last to get out of it. so it's pretty bad around here for jobs. starting to get desperate and have been applying to jobs i really don't even want, just to get something. anyway some critique from someone who does this stuff would help.

I can't see how it could have gone the right way. Whichever way I look at it all I see is that Coldplay have got away with it. Not that i'm particularly bothered, not my business. I just hope Joe is happy enough with it.

Hi Scubadaz,
I understand why you suggest changing one string at a time, it saves you lots of time. But it has some disadvantages, namely you're never able to clean the guitar properly under the strings.
I always changed them all at the same time. After a while, you get used to the compensation you need to give each string (I start with low E) to make them close to the final position.
Just my two cents...
Cheers,
VP

Turboian, Thank you for your confidence in my descriptive qualities. From the comments I've read from the Coldplay fans, I'd have to say that pretty many of them suffer from a serious case of Assholism. I'm also thinking that the king of that very same A-hole crowd will not be able to keep his mouth shut and will say something in an interview soon.. not that I'll be searching for anything about Chris Martin, but feel free. lol!
Don1963, sorry about the job situation. I still can't wrap my head around just how bad it really is, and how it got this way.
Anyways, back to Joe - Joe & Leslie - Stormy Monday
Man, I love that shit!! I could listen to Joe & Leslie play together all day!

The President of the United States speaks to a joint session of Congress and Knucklehead/Loudmouth Rep. Joe Wilson shouts at the President, "You lie!" How civil, how respectful of the office of the President of the United States.......NOT! This country is tied up in knots over BIG (unhealthy) HEALTH INSURANCE CORPORATIONS that have broken our collective health needs down to commodities with huge pricetags!
I feel ashamed, embarrassed, ackward and extremely perplexed about the standing of the United States in relation to the rest of the world in the way we provide/distribute/manage our already rationed fragmented heathcare! Mental heathcare is another component of the equation that gets extremely short shrift........I'm given a prescription and shown the door........tranquilizers and more tranquilizers!!!
Why doesn't the doctor just give me a shot of sodium Pentabarbitol and that puts an end to my whole physical and mental misery........Oh, no! That flys in the face of the Pro-life, anti-abortion ppl who really enjoy and have invested a lot in the suffering of ordinary people like me.........so they can manipulate and shape me into their political pawn to do their dirty work for them!

Morning all-
Glad to see some resolution in that case. Maybe the Cold Play fans will quit making such ugly comments on certain media sites about Joe.
The only way ColdPlay could redeem their selves in my eyes is to publicly apologize for all their smug shite. I believe they do suffer from that disease Michelle so aptly described. But now its over.
Cheese - congrats to your parents . 65 years is a Love story for sure .My parents had there 50th anniversary last year . We threw a big family blow- out for them. A huge party complete with horse drawn wagon ride at dusk . Good times.
minimoog-congrats on the guitar . I t sure is pretty. I dont play guitar . Started to as a kid and never stuck with it or took lessons . I could kick myself now.

To be ashamed and embarrassed because of the actions of another person, American or not, is not a healthy way to think. To be embarrassed FOR THEM is more appropriate. What congress is doing now is literally starting a "civil" war among Americans. The lies and hatred that's being spewed out of some of these people and their lobbyists should not be tolerated. For that asshole to call the President a liar - he should be punished and should have to resign immediately. If a man doesn't have self control in a public situation like that, imagine what he's like behind closed doors! It's like the most evil of the bunch are winning because they're yelling the loudest and spending the most money spreading their lies. There could finally be some help for the people of the US, but instead some want to keep us living under fear and misinformation instead of knowledge and power. The more we know and can help ourselves to have a better life, the less they want us to know so that they can have the power over us. It's not even about health care - it's a fucking power struggle. I'm still naive enough to think that good will prevail over evil.
That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be persued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war

Hope Joe got plenty of coin from them lyin' thievin' connivin' pricks.... Well Roy, prior to buying a Strat you always said Fenders were good for shovelling! Guess they be good for clubbing to!!! Pretty sure a well swung Tele could make a wikked dent in pretty much anything.
Brings to mind the April Wine ditty, "Rock n Roll Is A Vicious Game``
