Holy-Bliven!
Government officials really aren't that helpful, are they? I just had to spend the past 2 weeks solving my Visa issues that should have been solved months ago and should not have even occured in the first place! Whichmade me bump my flight from this Sunday to Wednesday!
Just a heads up; I'm travelling to England to backpack around Europe for 2 years. God knows how my fingers will hold up not playing guitar for a while, but it's something I gotta do.

Have a great birthday weekend Cheesey and Chris.
Finally, moving back home this weekend to a 90% complete house, will be great to set up a space to practice guitar and get the PC setup again to play music and vids.

Skippygirl - I have the same question for you...what Porcupine Tree songs did you like most?
Tostado - I'm a big Riverside fan...it's good to hear someone else knows who they are. I know I've mentioned them once or twice here but no one has said anything.
You need to get Out Of Myself and Second Life Syndrome ASAP.
cosmic_ape - Kate Beckinsale is my favorite actress...I'm jealous. ;-) I think Jason Lee is a great actor too, but I haven't seen My Name Is Earl. I know him from Almost Famous...
"I saw Cate Blanchett get her star(as I was walking to school)"
Haha...that's great! I went to a Walk Of Fame ceremony for KLOS disc jockey Jim Ladd in 2005. I was able to shake his hand and get an autograph...it was very cool. There were a lot of celebrities there...members of the Doors and Tom Petty's band, and even some unexpected (to me) people like Woody Harrelson.
ansr - Chickenfoot is actually the name of the band. They have a website, http://www.chickenfoot.us...if you go there you can watch a short video and add your email address to their mailing list.
cheese101 - Thanks for finding those interview clips.
And someone's going to say it, so it might as well be me...I'm sure it's just the video quality, but Joe's hat looks like it's decorated with condoms.
Aaanyway, please wish Chris a happy birthday from me...
El Nicko - That sounds like a fun trip. Have a great time, and if you find yourself somewhere with internet access please stop by and let us know how you're doing...
Listening to: Paul Gilbert - Get Out Of My Yard (current song: Marine Layer)
Man, what a beautiful song...
...Austin...

&playnext&indexyeap.. you don't need lot of technics to make honnorable music. & technics is not enough to make honnorable music.
So what?
It's given to very few to be real composer/virtuoso.
I don't want to feed the shredding polemic, but after several years spent onto the web, i had to constate that lot of guys called shredders run onto scales via exactly the sames ways. This lack of original style & tone is boring.
I discovered guitar with the miraculous genius Edward Van Halen. It was like being in front of Mike Tyson.. holy shit. It has been for me the absolute KO. After him, you can count the energic rounds.
I remember when i was younger & discovered Joe with SWTA. Never got the sensation to listen to technical ability, but simply instrumental music.
& finally, even if the guitar work onto scales has considerably evolved, not a single guitar player is able to make me forget:
Mr Alvin Lee
yeap.. style, tone, energy, feeling are what i like.

PECANS IN THE CEMETERY
On the outskirts of a small town, there was a big, old pecan tree just inside the cemetery fence. One day, two boys filled up a bucketful of nuts and sat down by the tree, out of sight, and began dividing the nuts.
'One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me,'
said one boy. Several dropped and rolled down toward the fence.
Another boy came riding along the road on his bicycle. As he passed, he thought he heard voices from inside the cemetery. He slowed down to investigate. Sure enough, he heard, 'One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me.'
He just knew what it was. He jumped back on his bike and rode off. Just around the bend he met an old man with a cane, hobbling along.
'Come here quick,' said the boy, 'you won't believe what I heard! Satan and the Lord are down at the cemetery dividing up the souls..'
The man said, 'Beat it kid, can't you see it's hard for me to walk.' When the boy insisted though, the man hobbled slowly to the cemetery.
Standing by the fence they heard, 'One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me.'
The old man whispered, 'Boy, you've been telling' me the truth. Let's see if we can see the Lord.'
Shaking with fear, they peered through the fence, yet were still unable to see anything. The old man and the boy gripped the wrought iron bars of the fence tighter and tighter as they tried to get a glimpse of the Lord.
At last they heard, 'One for you, one for me. That's all.. Now let's go get those nuts by the fence and we'll be done.'
They say the old man made it back to town a full 5 minutes ahead of the kid on the bike.

Hello everyone, Troll here; Aren't you all happy that Viva la Vida (the song that Coldplay wrote) won a grammy for Song of the Year!? It really is a wonderful song. It'd be sweeet if Joe would sub in on lead guitar for Viva sometime....maybe after he's done trying to sue them they could arrange a gig together. That would be a strange looking crowd though-with all the trolls, that is.

DoTheStu: You are dead right, everything in life can be related back to The Simpsons. And yes, Marine layer is a very nice song. Can't beat You Kids though...:)
El Nicko: Damn, you've got a head start on me backpacking wise. I'm still stuck in education! Go to the Rhineland in Germany, it's really nice. I can't wait to get a bit older and go somewhere like, well, New Zealand!
I can't believe, the troll's here to stay! (I'm trying not to look forward to 'his' posts, but they really are quite funny) :)
Not Listening to anything, the sound's buggered...

My weary heart tries to picture that happy day when trolls will realize that just because a band wins a Grammy Award it doesn't mean that group is any better than those who are nominated multiple times and don't win an award. The proof is in the loyalty/faithfulness of the fans AND the integrity, truth and love of the artist and how it is conveyed. Joe Satriani has shown his truth, love and integrity from the time he picked up his first guitar after he heard the news of Jimi Hendrix's death! The torch was passed and Joe took firm hold of it and learned to play by heart and focussed mind. He was sought out for guitar lessons! He didn't seek glory for himself! To know Joe through his music, other musicians who really know him and his interviews and bio---one can't help but love and respect the guy!
Michelle, Chee, Maritime, Mr. McKenna, Fatape, Cube, and so many other special T2Jers--I am slowly catching up on posts and I am trying to make sense of that senseless plane crash in Amsterdam recently. I was so sorry to hear about it and know that the pilot would have given his life to save everyone on that flight. We all need each other these days and any loss of life is so tragic.
Hope your Friday progresses well and in harmony--good music to you all!

While working at a pizza parlour I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go.
He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6.
He thought about it for some time before responding.
'Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces.'
