Conch - Not a stupid Q, it's one I get asked a lot. The answer is no. Prolly just as well because if my ship was being attacked I would surely shoot back at the MOFO's. I would equally surely then feel bad if I hit anyone because there is way too much killing going on in this fucked up world we are not doing a very good job of looking after.
Thanx for raising a BEER in my direction, for those about to drink beer I salute you.
Chadders - If you work in the oil industry you know very well that VLCC is an acronym for Fucking Big Oil Tanker. Oops I mean Very Large Crude Carrier.

hey everyone,
in Australia were having a 'Triple J hottest 100 of 2008' countdown and it would be awesome if Joe made it!
Seeing as his last album was released in 2008 we can vote for those tracks.
So if you would like to help enlighten the Australian public with Satch's music, please vote!
http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/hottest100/vote.htm
I hope its okay me posting this link, Im new at this sort of thing.
Thanks!

Chadders - It's not something you just get into if you're chasing the better paid jobs. Fraid you need to take lower pay and work yourself up. Oh yeah, study, work, sea time, get your licence, work, sea time, study, get the next licence, work, sea time, study, get the next licence, do without beer, do without sex (unless you're a hershey highwayman), miss the family, work, sea time, study, get the next licence, con peeps into thinking you actually know what you're doing.
FFS I sometimes WTF am I doing!?

Guitarman77897 - wow that's impressive playing! I am still trying to get Kumbaya.
Glitzy - I love your bright and happy posts - which must be admired with the weather you have. How the hell do you live and function in that? I am loving summer here ATM, all bare legs and cold chardonnay and swimming, plus a bitof guitar practice each day.
JSPhil - nice to hear from you, yes the fingers are coming good, and I think I have D now by reversing the 1st and 2nd fingers. Next to nail are C and F and chord switching speed.
AZ1987 - great idea!!!!! Perhaps all the Aussie fans should agree on a song to vote for so we maximise our votes? What do you recommend?
Do The Stu - you've been away I think - hope you had/ve a great holiday.

Hi Skippygirl,
You get to vote on 10 tracks so I pretty much voted for all the tracks on the album. Thats a good idea to choose one to focus our votes.. which track would you think?
None of the tracks are listed (pathetic isnt it?) but you can click on 'Add your own' and just type it in.
It would be sooo good if even one of them made the top 100!
Its amazing how many people listen to this countdown here so it would be great to hear.

WOW....I saw the winner of "the Joe Satriani look alike contest" today on my way to work. He had Joe's exact hairstyle (if you can call it that) and Joe's shades;-P He was driving a 1967 or 68 Ford Mustang--bright red with hood pins and great-looking alloy wheels! I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming!!
It's confirmed---I start taking guitar lessons from Ry Kihn (Joe's guitar student from about 15 years ago), next week!!! Amazing!! The ripple in the pool gets bigger and the circles continue out into the galaxy!! Wey hey!!!
It is official--2009 is the international year of astronomy. It's posted at the library where I work!!
Now to pray about the shooting death of a young man at a BART station on New Years Day! (He was shot in the back as he lay face down on the pavement.) The Bart police officer resigned today AND THE STREETS OF OAKLAND ARE TENSE TONIGHT. The young man's funeral was today and afterwards tempers flared because the issues surrounding this case have not gone forward with the district attorney!! We need the wheels of justice to move much more quickly with this. The attorney general of the state of California is urging the district attorney to get the shooter a court date right away. I hope to God this case moves forward, because I don't want a repeat of the rioting that happened in the 1960s (Watts riots) and 1992 (after the Rodney King beating).
Love and Peace.

Maritime:now THAT is chilly! although not as bad as Canada gets it...-40 plus oooph so happy t live in Barca sometimes
Cube:Hmmm makes it harder t play imo in the sense if y screw up a note its smack in yer face under a microscope which i like, makes you a better player.Defo more audible t hear the notes individual with no Dist but thats common sense, then again low output pickups with tons of Dist/Ov do that 2. Yngwie HS3,s for eg, they are so clean y could pick a string n listen t last weeks dead skin rattle along its length no matter how much dirt y throw at em & they work fab for recording no 60 cycle hum probs!...but.... for clean passages, ie that out of phase neck & middle "quack" tone using zero dist/Ov texas special single coils imo are by far superior, SRV, Knoflers choice for those that dont know, i,m having my Strat fitted with em soon, the tone is goin t be sublime
Glitz Man:all good here dude thx, festive gone like a flash in the pan, had a fab time back home with family & friends, the last time we were all together was 20 years ago so it was kinda special.Havin my son back in Scotland was the ice on the cake.Heartbreakin leaving for Spain again but there y go, cant have it all good all the time.Back t work, speakin of which i better pull the finger out
AlexandreCaetano:Alls well here bro, sorry t hear about the mut, tis hard t let go mans best friend

Hello from Norway. I bought a Ibanez js20s reasently. I havent tryed it, but a guitar build with the name Satriani on it, i was confident that it was good quality.... This mod. costs nearly 14000 kroner her in my country. And my oh my, Made in Indonesia really take its place her! It seams to by a cheap 50 dollar guitar!! I am so dissapointed, it dont have Joes mic. and the one it has feeds like crazy!! A lot of hum and noise!! Where is the true pas wolum??? It comes often out of tune, even the guitar case i have to work with just to close it? There was no signature strap and pics, even the add says that it is delivered with the guitar? There was a cable so thin that it is useless. Joe Satriani has been my icon since i sav him on stage in Rckefeller in Oslo 20 years ago, so this guitar build in Indonesia should not come with his name on it!! This is an surfer that can not surf, it is not joe satriani standard, at all. Just a disapointment.. (sorry for my poor englesias)

Glitz Man: Its going really good thanks! What about you?
I am playing alot of guitar. I got a JS1200 now. Its really cool. But now i mostly make my own songs. I have made a song out of a backingtrack i found. Its called "16 Years". The reason for the name is that i made it on my 16 year birthday :P
Satch songs i can play:
Always with me, always with you
Super Colossal
Crowd Chant
Cryin
Ten Words
Surfing with the alien
-----------------------
Joe Satrini:
The mistakes proves that Satch is non-human xD
When Satch plays wrong, then its not by mistake. He is just hiding that hes an alien. Just so we dont get the thought that hes an alien :P
-----------------------
To all at T2J: Have a great day and enjoy your music and your life. Cya!!

Ok,
I said I'd get there and I've done it. Please drop all your Joe Sketches in at The Satch Doodle Gallery
Once you register on the site, you should have rights to create and edit your own sketches, please try it out and let me know if there are any issues.
Thanks for your patience. Now I have to get back to entering more of the mountain of backlog. Gees, the things we do for you Joe! :)

az1987- thanks for that! I added 10 as well, but I substituted If I Could Fly for I Just Wanna Rock.
So all Aussie T2J'ers jump online and list all the PSATMOR songs of Joes at Triple J. Post back here if you do.
