It will be interesting to see Joe survive an entire tour with Sammy and Chad!!
How did you guys get those songs on to your itunes? Do they let you save them to favorites if you have a myspace page?

Tracie- My 14 yr. old wants to see that movie,..Is it a chick flick?
A couple of months ago I wanted to see Valkyrie,..we were late and she talked me into taking her to see BRIDE WARS. I was 1 of only about 3 men in a packed house. We sat up front, and when a funny part would come up it sounded like a giggle fest. I will admit it was not a bad movie but I was a bit outnumbered.
I think Soap on a Rope is my favorite of the 2. I love the riff, especially the slide up to D with the double accent there and on the A.
The opening line to Down the Drain sounds a little like the Peppers. (Give it Away).They did a good job of blending together,..I think we have a keeper here with this Chickenfoot thing.
Skippy- I got to thinking I may have been older than 8 when I had the thing for ONJ. Then I kinda got embarrassed. I remember when Men @ Work came out,..I was in the 10th grade. (16 I think.) And now you have Keith Urban,..Not really a huge country fan but he has talent.

scuba - thanks for the info, I'll get reading as the whaleshark dive would be great. Meantime, is there anything you haven't done dude? I have you down as dive instructor, marshall, guitar teacher and truck driver. Do you get bored easy (and yes, I know marshalling isn't paid) LOL?
Roo - thanks for the mail, top man! Did you leave your shruberry with a bunch of knights?
Igneous - flat, ha ha, not round my neck of the woods it's not. Thanks for the turby info. 30 on the flat on your MTB? I know what you mean about the ads, guess they're all foreign or maybe internet virals
Golden Girl - friends keep sending me all those vids. So I throw them up there alongside my guitar vids. I figure if people don't like the guitar vids they'll find the funnies instead
Skippygirl - ha, I think I'd better let that one drop before I get into trouble. Talking of Aussy racers, do you know James Courtney? Or how about Brett Fancis or Peter Hackett?
Got a new TV this weekend and wow do the Satch DVD's play even better.... now just need a PSATMOR tour one..... : )
Nite all

Scubadaz- My Satchurator arrived yesterday,..I bought it on ebay supposed to be used only 2 hours. It looks brand new, It would not power up. I changed the battery and still no power. To turn it on all you have to do is hit the button right? DISREGARD
My bad..bad cable:)I like the versatility of the MORE button.It really does have the Joe tone...I like to turn the tone all the way and the gain @ about 11 o clock for some smooth lead then hit the MORE button...Thanks for all who talked me into it.

slans... well, I was saying that because after 4 months at M.I. it seems that I'm starting to recognize the color of each individual pitch, regardless of the instrument that is playing it...
Funny, because we do our ear training with a "movable DO" concept, which develops your relative pitch... so we are being trained to recognize intervals based on any given tonality, which is something that I'm finally starting to hear... And all of the sudden, as an added bonus, I'm starting to notice pitches in things like glasses, doorbells, car horns and such...
So I'm thinking you might not need to get in the shed and listen to the same pitch for 3 years! My guitar instructor says he doesn't have perfect pitch, yet he reads my homework and sings it before I play it, and he nails it! He sings melodies and writes them on the spot and I'm like WTF! It takes me three hours to write an eight bar solo and he does it in 5 minutes!!!
So, I don't know if you need perfect pitch to write, arrange and compose music on the spot like you said you wanted to, but if it turns out that you don't, I'll let you know... And if it turns out that I'm developing perfect pitch, I'll let you know, too... These ear training classes are a pain, but now that I can definitely see some progress, I am very excited and I'm looking forward to the next class...

burly....ooooooooooooo noooooooooooo, wouldn't call that a chick flick at ALL...it's actually quite intense, has lots of action at times...it's the end that made me cry. It's prolly a bit of a hokey ending, I guess...but it's a very good movie. It's one of my son's favorites now. I like almost all movies that Nicholas Cage has done. Without ruining it for you, there are some scenes where u just gotta grab onto SOMETHING or SOMEONE fast!!
Slan, I can always count on you, LOL....that's actually a very cool site, especially since there are 18 complete tunes up of Sammy, or Van Halen. I had them cranked and competing with Chris's video games, lol! Mmmmm, tequila in a nice margarita....mmmmmmmmmmm.....sigh....
So one more time, don't want to leave anyone out but the names were too many to write here...just wanted to say thanks again to everyone who wished me a happy birthday yesterday. Had dinner with my folks and my son, and opened a few prezzies. My parents agreed that I dint look 50, but then that's a mom and dad fer ya...eyes of love, lol!
I think the funniest moment of the night though.....we had chicken and all the trimmings for dinner, and instead of cake (cuz my tummy can't really take the sweets anymore) I had asked my mom to make her peach cobbler...sugar free....cuz I love my fruits, lol! Which she did, right after chicken, I dished up cobbler for everyone and it was happily gobbled down by all of us....my mum is a wunnerful cook :) Then I opened prezzies...and on the last thing to open, my dad leans over to my mom and whispers (loudly cuz he can't hear well himself) "Junie, where's the cake???"
We about split a gut laughing cuz he thought there was gonna be CAKE TOO, on top of cobbler. Gotta love im, LOL!!! I offered him a cookie to ease his disappointment, but he was fine :)
So now I'm thinkin, fer his 87th birthday in May, I should just make him desserts fer dinner, lol!!

More tequila AND chickies at the CF shows??? So much for the short lines to the bathroom celebration we just had a while back. lol!
jblaze, Florida it is then. Glad you got a friend to watch out for yer stuff. Yer having a wild time with those dreams and wimmins. Cool about the lady in the bar. Isn't it amazing how certain people show up just at the right moments in life sometimes. There's gotta be more to it than just coincidence.
Movies - we watched Bolt last night. Rhino the hamster is funny as hell. Watched Role Models the other night. Stupid funny, especially when they dress up as Kiss. lol!
And now, for my parting thought...
I don't like Mondays, I don't like Mondays, I don't like, I don't like, I don't like Mondays...

I don't like Mondays either and it would seem that I don't particularly like Chickenfoot - well, not what I've heard so far anyway. Not really my cup of tea. I probably would have liked it more 20 years ago but now I'm an old fart it doesn't really float my boat. Just like the way I now prefer Earl Grey to regular bricky tea. :o)
Of course, I'll still buy the CD; it is just possible that I'll feel very differently about the two released CF tracks once I've heard them through a decent system and at a volume level that befits the style of music!. It's 3:00am now so I'll have to wait another 6 or 7 hours before I can give them a proper blast. I really hope I like them more on a second listening...

I spent the day working at home today preparing for a presentation,
I was listening to an endless loop of 2 songs....
Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain, Soap, Drain,... etc
I think you get the idea.
I'm not obsessed though, I stopped at lunch to watch Whoopie Goldbergs show for a few minutes too!
:)
Sounds awesome guys, cannot wait to buy the album... and hanging out for the france DVD to...

So I leave on my AZ/NM trip early Tuesday...does anyone have any suggestions on what music I should listen to on the way? What's good music for driving in the desert? Suggest away!
Among Joe's stuff, I think Crystal Planet will fit the best...I'll probably bring a few other albums as well, though. Maybe even Super Colossal. ;-)
scubadaz - I can use my computer for personal things within reason, but personal bookmarks are out of the question because occasionally other people will use my computer. Usually I can get lucky though and find a direct link to T2J in the recent web history. ;-) So it works.
Thanks for mentioning that Ian Gillan interview, but I (obviously) missed it. Do you know if they archive things on that site? I'd like to hear it if I can...
sisq67 - I agree...Down The Drain has a great hook. The song doesn't do too much for me, but I think it'll be fun live and it's such a great hook that I think it'll make a good single.
cheese101 - "do u think there'll be many more chickies at the CF shows than Joe has had solo??"
I expect the majority of the fans at Chickenfoot gigs to be Sammy Hagar fans, which means, yes, there will be a lot of women there... He's more popular than Satch and his fanbase is just as die-hard (if not more so), so it'll be interesting to see what the crowd dynamic is like.
Blue_Moon - There are only two kinds of grand slams...the home run in baseball and the breakfast from Denny's. ;-)
Listening to: Van Halen - Light Up The Sky
...Austin...

scubadaz: Wow, must be useful having Oulton so close, I did a drive experience there for my b'day last year. Only 3 laps in a Clio, but fun as hell. Must have been nice being a marshal (when it wasn't raining...)
Hamilton for champ again this year. Just thought I'd make my support clear now :)
JSPhil: On the MTB? Nah...that would be good going. It's another little life goal ticked off that. Next up, breeze past someone on a carbon racing machine on a steep hill, (him preferably puffing, me straight face...to collapse further on :)
DoTheStu: The Eagles and Hotel California, every time I listen to that I imagine desert (not dessert as I nearly typed...). Also, I imagine the new U2 album would fit well, 'No Line on the Horizon' seems quite fitting.
Listening to: Banana Mango II by Joe

Do The Stu - how about America - "Horse With No Name"? :0))
Or The Eagles - Take It Easy :0) OK just joshin'...........
Actually if I drive down to my sister's (about 1 hr) I usually put on SWTA at full volume followed by Live in Tokyo but I know you have much wider musical interests.
For an oddball - my daughter just got the Twilight soundtrack and it's actually pretty good (starts with Muse).
My other favourite for driving is the Almost Famous soundtrack, I know I'm a dag............mind you, you could always make up a playlist like Drivin' At Night, The Traveller etc...........
edit...Iggy we were on the same page LOL..........

Skippygirl: The joys of early morning (or in your case, evening) posting eh? I hadn't thought of 'A horse with no name'...I can imagine it now, rolling sand, a cool breeze...none of which I have experienced for many many months. :)

Skippy 'Horse with no name' was the first that came to my mind. It's one of my favorite songs.
Since we're on the singer songwriter vibe I say: Country Roads by John Denver, Small Wonders by Dog's Eye View, Keep Your Distance by Buddy & Julie Miller, Ballad Of Billy Jo McKay by Shawn Mullins, Little Blind Fish by CPR.
Some guitars for on the road: Cold Shot by Stevie Ray Vaughn, Champion by Tony MacAlpine, Land Of The Midnight Sun by Al Di Meola, Morse Code by the Travis Larson Band, Good To Go by Steve Morse Band, The Final Frontier by Frank Gambale. If you're in a hurry: Race With Devil On Spanish Highway by Al Di Meola.
