Dear Joe:
I just wanted to say thanks for making good/quality lessons available at a price that can allow us to study long term!
Its nice to be able to review a lesson and have the music examples to refer to as we learn.
Its great to be able to say, hey Joe, can you play that again
... I didn't catch all that .... then we simply click replay!
AWESOME!
Hope you keep them coming!!!

Vigier Artist Lapiro de Mbanga in Prison
December 15th 2008
Cameroon artist, Lapiro de Mbanga, a Vigier artist for over 20 years, has been put in jail for political reasons by the Cameroon government.
Lapiro de Mbanga is very well know in Cameroon for his political position against injustice and has been a victim of repression on several occasions, but this time things have gone far.
After Cameroon's president, Paul Biya, modified the constitution in his favor, giving himself the right to run for as many mandates as he wants, Lapiro de Mbanga released a CD and DVD to denounce these changes in the constitution in a new song titled, "Constitution Constipée" ("Constitution Constipated ").
In February 2008, Cameroon was shacked by demonstrations and the government jumped on this opportunity to arrest artists like Lapiro and his friend, Joe la Conscience, accusing both of them of looting when in fact they were helping the population.
At the same time the government confiscated all of Lapiro's CD's and DVDs of "Constitution Constipée".
Lapiro de Mbanga has been sentenced to 3 years in jail and has been in prison since September.
His trial is scheduled at the end of December and Lapiro needs our support.
Please sign a petition at this address to help free Lapiro de Mbanga: www.vigierguitars.com/lapiro.

Happy New Year, Joe!! Great to see your message in blue here among us!!
Satchland--I am in awe of the posts on this board and and so far behind! I need roller skates to catch up. I just got back late Monday from visiting my younger sister's family and me mom in the inland valley--gateway to Yosemite National Park! My Steve and I were being Uncle and Aunt to our 5-year-old niece on Monday morning while my sister was workin' and my 16-year-old nephew was at wrestling practice. We were at me mum's place. We had a blast entertaining the niece--she's so cute (Shirley Temple hair)! She wanted to play outside and her 80+ granny isn't up to chasing her, so her Aunt and Uncle took her outside for awhile and she ran and bounced around, danced and frolicked until she was tired and wanted to go back inside to paint some pictures, have a snack and read a book with me--I Spy Christmas!
I gave my nephew 2 Satch CDs--PSATMOR and Surfin' with the Alien!! He plays drums and was blown away by Jeff Campitelli's spot on riffs. He told me he had never heard such great guitar and drum jams in his whole life and wants to become as proficient as Jeff Campitelli!!! Woooo!! Hoooo!!!
Michelle/Tracie/fatape and McKenna---You are the funniest team on this board!!! Suggesting Al write a song called "F on" in the key of F made me lmao!!!!! What a bunch of beautiful lunis!!!
Do the Stu--How can I do you and so many others justice at this point???? I am trying to catch up and have to do so by increments........
Happy New Year everyone!!

Slan the man - "Is it any wonder we don't see more blue", as Kevin Keegan would say 'I would just love it' if some blue said hey kids, get a feckin grip sometimes.
Talking about blue (not you Al!), we had a happy new year but no happy Christmas, mebbe Joe is from the MacSatriani clan.

MODES - INTERVALS - LEARNING THE NECK - Creating Modal Chord progression and CREATING GROOVES - what a revelation !
Wow, I just saw some videos on youtube about modes, there are 2 of them? (By Joe of course)
I hope to see Modes as a reoccurring theme in the online lessons!
I hope to better hear and understand the theory behind it all, but some help on the topic to get off in the right direction...
Possibly one mode a month? appied with building grooves based on the chords?
Understanding modal harmony applied would KICK!

Hey Joe,
Great to hear from you. I'll be looking forward for the "Live In Paris" DVD, as well as the Chickenfoot projects. By the way, I was the winner of that awesome Christmas ornament that you signed and drew on. It looks really cool and I love it a lot. Thank you, and I am glad to hear where the proceeds will go to. You have done so much to help others. I'd be glad to help you out with any upcoming projects or things that you are planning to work on. Thank you Joe and keep on rockin' man. I hope 2009 will be a great year for you. Take care of yourself.

JOE: Nice! Chickenfoot!!! Yea baby. Best of luck and fun with your Paris DVD. I'm healing up okay. I do need to find out from my docs if'in' there is something I can do to lose the foot problem stuff. Now that I have a video camera Steven and I are planning a vid we can post of one of our songs. Any requests? T2Jers? Maybe a brand new song just 'cause. Randell
