Evenin all,
andy, press return twice !
anyone heard COPYLLAD, sorry COLDPLAY's latest track, What the hell does it sound like, it's got this melody like answering the chorus lines that sounds like somethin else, No I'm not being sarcastic,
I feel for Joe though, I feel like this is gonna drag on but I really hope it doesn't go sour. We can see how CP are approaching this from their statement. accidental reproduction? should've used protection.
love to all

just dropped in to say hi and mention i had to post a comment on utube. i was listening to if i coudl fly and was reading some of the comments and got pissed. some of these idiots don't know shit about music.
on another note i have to confess something. some guy came on the radio and requested a song by satch but didn't know the name of the song. so he starts going wah wah wah wah-wah. i was like i should be able to guess this. i KNOW THIS well, NOT. it was crush of love. DJ says it was off the Time Machine release. i never realized i didn't have that song in my collection.I thought time machine was a best of album when i saw it a few years ago. since i have been on this web site i realized it had some new tracks but not a whole CD's worth. i hate buying stuff twice. the upside it is live. i splurged ($7.98) or therabouts for a used copy from amazon. well now i have a whole new album of joes stuff to hear.
Evil5DC- hope i got your name right. sounded real good here. keep up the good work.
never tried playing that one. have to listen to that one again. nice groove to it.

Happy First Birthday Johnny Lee Marchbank!
Keniko: How has it been with you?
Skippygirl: I am in question if I should do that 5K race this Saturday. I'll let you know A.S.A.P.
To everybody else: How has it been with all of you? The temperatures are warming up here (for now). Work is going really well. We have had some Christmas parties already for a few businesses.
Hey, I placed a bid on that Christmas ornament that Joe signed and I won it!!! WOOHOO!!!
Talk with you all later. Keep in touch everyone. Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season.

Coldplay trolls - read this!
I guess some people just don't mind getting pissed on? That's what it seems like to me. If you have a child, and someone takes that child, changes it's outfit, gives it a hair cut, and slaps a Barney backpack on it's back then states "This is my child now! It looks nothing like the child you had" would it be? Would you just go.."Well yer right, it doesn't look like my child anymore, so I guess it's yours", or would you say "Back up bitch and give me my child!" Same kid with different clothes and hair cut. Same song with different overlays and lyrics.
I guess some people are easily fooled by smoke and mirrors.
Joe knows his way inside and out when it comes to musicology. I know he's done everything in his power to have this resolved without taking this wanker to court. Since the dude doesn't have the courage to say he stole Joe's song, Joe had to stand up and do what's RIGHT.
I want my baby back, baby back, baby back Chris.
lol!

Having slogged through all the YouTube comments, I still have to resist the urge to educate some of those who comment on the news story. My take is that the lawsuit is designed/destined to get the lawyers and their clients to the table to negotiate a settlement.
This was an interesting article: Satriani vs Coldplay: what do lawyers say?
http://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/satriani-vs-coldplay-what-do-lawyers-say-186826
lorenzo001: I consider Time Machine a MUST HAVE ~ this was the cd that convinced me I simply HAD to own the entire calogue of Joe's music ~ one listen and I was BOUGHT AND SOLD ~ full stop
...peaceLove&Bailey's...

p.s. don't feed the trolls!

Riviera_Grande - and peace be with you, man, great time of year to say that.
Glitzy - congrats!!!!! That's one nice Chrissy decoration, treasure it!
Michellica - you go girl, great analogy.
And Satchiella, back at ya -
The questions below about Australia are from potential visitors. They were posted on an Australian Tourism Website and the answers are the actual responses by the website officials, who obviously have an excellent sense of humour.
Q: Does it ever get rainy in Australia? I have never seen it rain on TV, how do the plants grow? (UK).
A: We import all plants fully grown and then just sit around watching them die.
Q: Will I be able to see kangaroos in the street? (USA)
A: Depends how much you've been drinking
Q: I want to walk from Perth to Sydney - can I follow the railroad tracks? (Sweden)
A: Sure, it's only three thousand miles, take lots of water.
Q: Are there any ATMs (cash machines) in Australia? Can you send me a list of them in Brisbane, Cairns, Townsville and Hervey Bay? (UK)
A: What did your last slave die of?
Q: Can you give me some information about hippo racing in Australia? (USA)
A: A-fri-ca is the big triangle shaped continent south of Europe. Aus-tra-lia is that big island in the middle of the Pacific which does not.. oh forget it. ..... Sure, the hippo racing is every Tuesday night in Kings Cross. Come naked.
Q: Which direction is North in Australia? (USA)
A: Face south and then turn 180 degrees. Contact us when you get here and we'll send the rest of the directions.
Q: Can I bring cutlery into Australia? ( UK)
A: Why? Just use your fingers like we do.
Q: Can you send me the Vienna Boys' Choir schedule? (USA)
A: Aus-tri-a is that quaint little country bordering Ger-man-y, which is...oh forget it. Sure, the Vienna Boys Choir plays every Tuesday night in Kings Cross, straight after the hippo races. Come naked.
Q: Are there supermarkets in Sydney and is milk available all year round? (Germany)
A: No, we are a peaceful civilization of vegan hunter/gatherers. Milk is illegal.
Q: I have a question about a famous animal in Australia, but I forget its name. It's a kind of bear and lives in trees. (USA)
A: It's called a Drop Bear. They are so called because they drop out of Gum trees and eat the brains of anyone walking underneath them. You can scare them off by spraying yourself with human urine before you go out walking.
Q: Do you have perfume in Australia? ( France)
A: No, WE don't stink.
Q: Can you tell me the regions in Tasmania where the female population is smaller than the male population? (Italy)
A: Yes, gay nightclubs.
Q: Will I be able to speak English most places I go? (USA)
A: Yes, but you'll have to learn it first.
Q: Do you celebrate Christmas in Australia? (France)
A: Only at Christmas

Hello everyone, I seldom post here, but I read regularly.
Skippygirl: You are so funny. I am studying in Sydney now, have been here for around six months. I can really understand how you feel with all those questions. What a great sense of humor you have there.
May Joe prevails over Coldplay. Sorry for my poor English, still struggling, though.

Skippygirl - Thank you, you speak Bahasa Indonesia very well! My favourite one is the self-titled (1995), and it was also my first. It couldn't be easier to be Joe's fan, all I have to do is purchase every record/video of his, and masterpiece is all I receive. Very nice to know you.

Dear Joe Satriani,
I'm 42 years old. I'm a guitar player and I was one of your first and great fans.
I like your music, your sound, your great intelligence (the way you analyseand think music and what you're doing : modes, impro, relations between harmonization and improvisation, and so). You're a great pedgogue and I supposed very open minded.
BUT, BUT,BUT What happened ?
What the hell dis you do with COLDPLAY
Do you need money to attack them the way you did.. for what ???!!!
I was very disappointed whent I discovered (today) reading the journal that you where attacking Coldplay in justice... For what ?? Because you think they copied a little piece of an insignifiant melody that anybody could have composed (even me !!!)
I'm sure lots and lots of people already compposed this kind of melody. Are you gone a attack them if one day you find it looks like a fragment of your songs ??!!
Crazy thing, this thing you've done.
Moreover, the musil arrangements of Coldplay are much more interesting that the melody itself and the interest of their song is far away from this melody !!
Well, I love your music and I love Coldplay's music. I'm sure that many composers can find that simple melodies look like a melody composed by others... So, what's the problem here with Coldplay ??? Their song is not the same as yours at all.... only this little piece of very simple melody that anybody could have whistled one day in the morning under the shower...
Very strange for someone who had a reflexion about the art of composing and who knows how a composer can be influenced by other composers... to attack for that !!!
I repeat the melody you think Colplay stole from you is a banal little piece of melody. Maybe, they were influenced by you without knowing it. Maybe, YOU were influenced by another artist without knowing that.
Hey, Mr JOE come back on Earth !!! Play your great music and forget the mad money world...Come back to your roots...
I'm really shocked by this crazy thing you did...
Very disappointed.
I'm SURE I won't buy any CD from you now : I'm clearly disgusted by the attitude.
WHAT A PITY...
Hope you won't win and hope Colplay will not suffer from this incredible attack...
ZOLVAISAT
A fan of Steve VAI / VAN HALEN / Very disappointed by JOE SATRIANI...
Sorry for my English (i'm from France)
