jdublu: (like the Ingenious name...) So how's life up in Perthshire? Only been there in passing myself mostly up to the far North. Actually be up there again next week probably. I like Secret Prayer a lot as well...good tune. 10 Words is a lovely song as well, you obviously have good taste :)
DoTheStu:Great pics...thanks for posting :)
js1200js1000: WOW! What a find...that guy's either great or crazy...
JSPhil: That damned British weather eh? Missed a perfect day today as we were out walking instead...typical. Yeh, Lance is like Lewis-as in I just hope he stays out of trouble....I especially hope they both stay away from Spain ;)
Just got my Steve Vai 'Original Album Classics' set of 5 (and I repeat, 5) cds...that's me sorted for the week!

scuba: Damm right they are, nice to have vinyl-alike sleeves as well I suppose. Really good value when you consider I could have bought Passion & Warfare and Alien Love Secrets for more than the 5 cost...:)

i,ve a Q...best saddles for strat is? it seems t be a fuckin mystery, hardcore Fender peeps think this convo is stupid, while others are screaming graphite covered saddles = more sustain better tone & less string breaks
*slan scratches head*

Did anyone here see Liquid Tension Experiment on tour last year? Ytsejam Records is now taking preorders for a massive box set containing two complete shows on CD and DVD, a Blu Ray version of the Downey show, a bonus CD with other stuff, a 24-page booklet, and the L3E2 When The Keyboard Breaks CD that was recently released on its own.
The cost is $130, which is pretty good considering everything you get... Check it out.
jdublu - Ah...that sounds like a cool trip. I've been to about half of those places. How much time did you spend out here? Just a week or two?
Listening to: Aerosmith - Rocks (current song: Lick And A Promise)

Happy Easter, everyone!
Marillion - Easter
I guess this is kind of an odd choice for here, but oh well. If the song bores you, jump to 2:15 for the guitar solo or 3:05 for the proggy outro. ;-)
cosmic_ape - You're really thinking of buying a Suhr? Awesome. I remember talking to you about those guitars at the Paul Gilbert gig..."They're nice, but they're expensive...but they're REALLY nice!!!"
I know I told you I have a friend who used to work there, but I'm not sure if I mentioned that I actually got to tour the shop as well. Very cool...
Guitarvibes - There's some very creative math in that ad...haha. You can buy those three pedals from Music123 for $50 less than what Vox is advertising. I guess my gripe should be with the practice of giving products such high MSRPs.
I checked out The Hideous Sun Demons...interesting stuff. The MySpace page says they're based in LA...do you know if they're still together? How often do they tour? Their blog hasn't been updated in about a year and a half...

scuba:dunno, i stayed out the debate partly because i dont know n partly because i think such conversation is a lot of old toss, however there must be some truth in it t raise hackles at Fender
cosmic ape:Yup if in doubt ask a pro.. i like these breakaway lads that used t work for Fender or Gibson, they have vision, no questioning Suhr quality, maybe 2 pretty an eyefest for my taste at times i like t batter the guitar without worrying about the finish choptastic celtic dadgad exercise for ya been recording a celtic fusion blend of orchestrated madness on & off for the last 3 years now, lookin forward t the day i can put it on the net with a vid kick back with a beer n say mission accomplished ahhhhh, talkin of which i better pull the finger out now i get some work done

Dothestu as fas as I know Hideous Sun Demons is a on and off thing (?) around drummer Ray Luzier, since I saw him on Youtube with two Japanese in a 2006 gig.... A bit more at Magana Carta Records. And more. I read on the web they played a dutch festival allready in 1996!?? The CD I bought was released in 2004. They remind me of Liquid Tension Experiment and Tony MacAlpine, whos stuff I all have. "Having toured the world as David Lee Roth’s band and appeared on his Diamond Dave CD, The Hideous Sun Demons will release their self-titled debut album of all instrumental tracks. From very structured pieces to wide open jams, The Hideous Sun Demons cover a vast array of styles.
Formed by longtime Roth drummer, Ray Luzier, the band began to take shape when Japanese guitarist, Toshi Hiketa, was brought on board. DLR bassist, James Lomenzo, became interested in the project and the three players began to write material together.
Each member has recorded extensively with household names from the world of rock ’n’ roll. In addition, they have all been involved as music instructors at prestigious music schools such as GIT, Osaka School Of Music and PIT."
I put the Vox pedals ad on T2J not for the prices, just because I liked the picture.
