Maritime-Thanks for the help. and cool MySpace page. I guess I need to start one. I have had my own website for nearly 10 years and haven't updated once...I get enough business without having to but am really ashamed that I haven't taken the time.

QUESTION FOR JOE: What size venues will you be targeting for the U.S.?...The reason I ask is that Sammy and the Wabos played ASU Convocation Center a few years back. I can start working on my buddies in Jonesboro to bring Chickenfoot to town if you think that could be a possibility.

Argh...it's impossible to catch up with things around here if you miss a few days. I guess I shouldn't get sick. ;-) I'll just jump back in.

So...CHICKENFOOT! I'm psyched about the possible club tour before the band heads to Europe. My future work schedule is kind of up in the air, though, so I hope I'm able to see a show.

The news about the setlists including songs from everyone's other bands doesn't come as a surprise to me...this band only has one album, after all.

What are everyone's setlist predictions? I figure we'll get two songs tops from each person's other band.

I bet Joe will do Satch Boogie, and if he gets a second song it'll be something like One Big Rush, Ice Nine, or Surfing With The Alien.

I think obvious Van Halen choices are from 5150...maybe Best Of Both Worlds and Why Can't This Be Love.

I only own one Red Hot Chili Peppers album so I'm not sure what we'd get from them, but I think Give It Away or their cover of Higher Ground would fit in with the Chickenfoot vibe.

Personally, I wish Chickenfoot would do at least some music their other bands don't do regularly...it'd be neat to hear a Satch song like Back To Shalla-Bal or something like Judgement Day from Van Halen. Actually, I'd almost prefer Sammy Hagar solo material instead of multiple Van Halen songs. Or do something else entirely...I'd rather hear a Led Zeppelin cover instead of Satch Boogie for the 23rd time. I know I've been fortunate enough to have seen Joe more than most people here, but I think you get my point...

Anyway, I'm writing a lot...I'll stop. ;-)

Listening to: Van Halen - For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge (current song: In 'N' Out)

maritime: LOL : just had an enormous homemade lasagna! woohooo <burp> !

Yummy.

Well it's 10.43pm Sunday here now, I guess all our American/Canadian/Mexican freinds will be in bed :0).

Just had a lovely dinner with friends since my new kitchen is finally operational.

Only 1 hr guitar practice this weekend due to all my other duties....didn't get back to Ten Words yet but lots of other stuff is sounding much better. Practiced the two octave scale and "Simple Gifts".

Dumb Question #28 - since your 2nd finger is the longest and your 4th the shortest how the heck do you play notes with those fingers in succession???? i.e. 5th string 8th fret then 10th fret do you curl your 2nd up and stretch out the 4th because you can't hold your hand in the same position......aarrgghhhhhhh

Guitarman77897:ah... come across different my bad

Cheese:Yeah well makes sense T did Jon not say he was lookin for a moderator a while ago?

GG:thx just standin up for a decent bloke even if he maybe was a bit mad

Wow maritime, that's an awesome link, thanks for that!!

So much to read there, and yet not nearly enough, can't wait for the magazine to come out. These guys all sound so super-excited to be doing this....I laughed out loud at this from Sammy:

Joe won't hang around with me on tour, I guarantee you that. I'm waaaaay too crazy for him. When I start bringing naked pigs into my hotel room, brother, he'll be long gone! (laughs)

Ummmmm...."naked" pigs?? What other kind of pigs iz dere? LOL!!!

Joe, I'm glad the name Chickenfoot has grown on you enough to accept it cuz yer right...it's what the group does together, rather than the name, that's the most important. But ya know......I just gotta say the damn name is quirky and really so original it's perfect!! All 4 of you have your own quirks and originality and you're blending those things together to make a whole 'nuther entity with a life of it's own....Chickenfoot WORKS!! :) And it's completely memorable..."The Nine" ........well, not so much, LOL!! And the logo is pure genius in it's simplicity and symbolism. It even looks like a chicken foot, lol!

Smooooooke on the Waaaatah....

1994, Italy :) How easy is it I wonder, to see a video of yourself and be instantly transported back to that very place and time, and feel what was going on then? Just wondering if things ever get blurry when a person has been so many places, and seen and done so much :)

Cheese.....yup was a while ago, lets face it we need a moderator here, pretty clear ol Lucas aint wrapped 2 tight n i doubt Jon has the time t put up with it.You pretty much know all there is t know about satch n yer always around so i figure y,d be the logical choice

Hi Joe,please where can I find your songs whitout guitar solo if is it possible.

Webmaster- is it possible to ban someone from this site? because wee all know who we would like to ban.

LUC-ASS-HOLE!!!

Maritime--What a great rundown on the goofy side of the 1960s! That 1968 part was so funny--lmao!!

I'm still in banana slug mode---catching up........7 pages behind!!
