HEY ZOLVASHIT- if music is so easy to write why don't you post something you wrote here.

this brings to mind the Who song where it says we don't have an original idea. we always repeat what weve heard before. help me people.

hey its me, the central scrutinizer.

Hi Joe! I just wanted to congratulate you on your stuff with coldplay. To me it's obvious that they've taken your melody (and I don't blame them for it - it's great) and their music is pretty bland, so I can see why they'd give up trying to be creative themselves. I think it's quite remarkable that even though coldplay are a british band, over here in britain the newspapers and radio are still backing you up. :)

Ahh coldplay fans, the only reason they attack joe is because they like coldplay, even tho they know they totally ripped him off, the music theory video says there are 3 parts to a song, the melody (copied) the rythm (copied) and harmony. 2/3 of the song is copied HOW CAN YOU DENY THAT THEY DIDN'T COPY HIM!?!?!. proofs all in the videos. I think coldplay knows they're screwed. they should just suck it up and pay the price, they should be able to afford it right? unless they suck so much they can't sell a single album, or non-copyright infringed song. I mean they stole from, Ashlee Simpson, Radiohead, Creaky Board, and JOE SATRIANI.

If the coldplay fans would just listen to some of his music they would get into him. listen to summersong or surfing with the alien, any of his hreat hits. I mean If the first song they hear is like woodstok jam I guess I can understand, but if they listen to Satch Boogie they can;t not like him.

A happy, little fly was buzzing around a barn one day, when she happened upon a large pile of fresh horse manure. Since it had been hours since her last meal and she was feeling hunger pains, she flew down to the irresistible delicacy and began to munch out. She ate. And ate... and then... she ate some more!!!

Finally, she decided she'd had plenty. She washed her face with her tiny front legs, belched a few times, then attempted to fly away. But alas...she had pigged out far too much and could not get off the ground.

She looked around wondering what to do about this unpleasant situation when she spotted a pitchfork leaning upright against the barn wall.

She'd found a solution. She thought if she could just become airborne she'd be able to fly again. So, she painstakingly, climbed to the top of the handle. Once there, she took a deep breath, spread her tiny fly wings, and leaped confidently into the air.

She dropped like a rock and splattered all over the floor! Dead Fly.

The moral of this sad story?

Never fly off the handle when you know you're full of shit.

---------------------------------

The other night I was invited out for a night with "the girls."

I told my husband that I would be home by midnight, "I promise!" Well, the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easy. Around 3 a.m., a bit loaded, I headed for home.

Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock in the hall started up and cuckooed 3 times.

Quickly, realizing my husband would probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times. I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted solution (even when totally smashed), in order to escape a possible conflict with him.

The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, and I told him "Midnight". He didn't seem pissed off at all.

Whew! Got away with that one!

Then he said, "We need a new cuckoo clock." When I asked him why, he said, "Well, last night our clock cuckooed three times, then said, "Oh sh!t.", cuckooed 4 more times, cleared it's throat, cuckooed another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the coffee table and farted."

Know any more?

You know, if you want to find all performances of a song, what concerts, which bootlegs, etc, you find the song in the index, or on the album and click on the song information link.

For example: Midnight

That tells you a bit about the song, and all performances and cds.

:) I just had a thought. I'll add the coldplay album and make the viva la vida track a performance of If I could fly!

slanshroom....a very happy birthday to your little one.

ZOLVAISAT:Its about protecting what is your own or in this case what Joe believes to be his, imo someone in Coldplay has heard the melody & subconsciously thought it a great vocal line t use "at least thats what i,d like t believe"

I,ve always believed being rid of an enemy is to live with it, going through the nasty options is not in the best interest i feel for Joe

On the one hand i,d like to think Coldplay would invite Joe up on stage t play the melody with his vocals for a gig, that way it kills the situation stone dead...call me a dreamer...

On the other it may be like leading the lamb t the slaughter, but i think even Coldplay fans would agree a live version of Joe & Coldplay playing the track would be twice as potent plus make TWICE as much bucks!!! slan nudges sony n emi

fuck the court lawyers etc, if Coldplay have enough about them as human beings/musicians its the LEAST they could offer Joe

If they dont....well....Satans scaley pecker is always in need of a good suck

Cube:I,d rather it that way t be honest its making a humble beautiful soul of a man look bad t many not familiar with Joe or his music & that bro really blows

for any Coldplay fans that could be stopping by to check out who that guitarist is?? O_o get yourselve's 'Surfing with the Alien', 'Crystal Planet' & 'Is There Love In Space?'

hey joe, my name is paul and i am a professional stand up comic. I would love to give you a free cd of my comedy cd "blurred reality" as a thank you for all the great music you have provided us fans over the years. (and no this is not me trying to get a record deal, i am signed with a record company already. just truely a gift.) i can tell that your a funny guy and like to joke around so i figured you would enjoy it. is there a way I can send ya a free copy?

Cube, the lawyers win. other than that, you know, the old adage, anything to get/keep your name in the news is good publicity. Not saying pub is what Joe is after here, but I am betting there have been a few more sales of ITLIS and the tune. Anyone who as ever sat down and chatted to Joe (as I was fortunate enough to do) knows he is a man of class and integrity even if he drops an occasional F-Bomb!!!!

Jaysus maritime its gonna be -20 something celsius in Calgary later today and colder tomorrow!!!! Shoulda brought my blades!!!! (sorry, mine are hockey blades)...

My Steve is going through hell with these stupid seizures! He insisted on going to work this morning. He may have to come home at any moment.

Get back to ya'll later.

Joe, regarding the legal suit with Coldplay, time to make some lemonade. You undoubtedly have heard Martin's voice dubbed over your song. WOW! Like my two sons, I know you are true to your artistic ethics but this kind of thing could put the paddles to the music industry.
