Hey Joe. Good to hear from ya.
Skippy- Thanks for that vid of SLT. Best audio quality yet.
Hot weather returns to Arkansas...I got spoiled last month with temps in the 70s and 80s.

Hello all; been busy of late and just caught up on 8 pages posts. Figures I've been gone and Joe does a couple of posts.
Hey Joe! Can't wait til the end of the month when we get to go to 3 shows! Sounds like the band is still having fun which is awesome. To quote Bill & Ted, "rock on dude".
I know a lot of people here play guitar but does anyone write lyrics?

Y'all need to stop the beer talk...I had to run down to the fridge and get one, on a Tuesday night...I can see my belly grow with every sip... :)
Zenfish: Congrats on the new band, enjoy!!
Scubadaz: I wish you success on your job hunt and the upcoming interview, stay positive and good things will come.
McDave: Congrats on the big 4-0, consider yourself pinched! jaja.
Roo: Congrats on all the good stuff surrounding u now, I can't imagine going thru all those changes at the same time, just moving into a new house is a harrowing experience in and of itself!! Side note, I have a picture of me and Joe inside a Universal Citywalk store, so take Austin's advice and hang around Universal when CF plays there.
Don1963: I wrote lyrics when I was in love, 4 songs worth, all dedicated to the love of my life...13 years later she grabbed my heart and tore it apart...never wrote lyrics since, but I'm kinda getting the urge back now, so who knows...

Do The Stu if Joe would give us a chance of winning some of those stored "rare" EP's we would go completely berzerk on T2J! Total mahem! :-)

Going thru that 6 CD article on Joe, it's interesting that he jumps from Crystal Planet to Chickenfoot. Kind of reinforces what I have expressed here ocassionally about his most recent work. I am looking forward to his next solo release, see how the CF experience translates into his solo work. We'll see...
Austin: Glad that u liked it, if I had tried to sync any portion of that video I probably would've failed miserably! I can tell u that I had a huge grin and a couple of tears running down my face at around the 3 minute mark.
It took me quite a while to feel comfortable about putting personal stuff on the Tube, but it's great to be able to share these memorable experiences with friends with such ease. So I'd say go for it!
To answer your housing question, I can tell you that in Mexico the credit freeze was put in place in October of 08. We were one of the last families to move in, it took about 6 months for all credit activity to kick back on again, and for additional families to move into that residential complex. Not that it matters to me anymore, I'm back in the old house now...but I digress.

Cosmic: cool, I'll let you know if we are gonna make it, and we can catch up.
Austin: I think Joe has some, he sent me a mint shrinkwrapped one ages ago. Joe- you're sitting on a goldmine. I guess they'd lose a bit of value if you sold them all though, less rare then. I thought I read somewhere that he had 500 or something made. Do they'd still be pretty rare.
Moving up the coast (warmer and more relaxed lifestyle).
House market (and economy) actually pretty stable here. I think people fit scared and overestimated the global impact. There are strong economies around the globe that helped resist the slide. Plus our banking is heavily regulated.
Kids are 8 and 11, yes, were going to include universal.
I'll definitely have a chat if the trip works out.
Skippy: no wukkus!
Elpp: lol- definitely!

elpp - that is a lovely vid my friend, it could actually BE the vid for the song. Thanks for introducing me to a DT song I hadn't heard before too, it's really sweet.
Sounds like you've had a rough time, but I am sure you'll write more love songs again (hey as a start you could write a love song to the Gorgeous Rock Chick Guitar Shredder :>)).
roo - *SOBS LOUDLY* thanks mate (sniff!).
Do The Stu - I sent 2 but it's OK no need to respond to both. We could have adopted you, you know that don't you haha?
Oh and HAVE A GREAT TIME TONIGHT TORONTO!!!! Wave to Skippygirl!

If anyone didn't buy Guitar Player last month, you can read the Chickenfoot article here (as a PDF or Flash file or something...?):
http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/newbay/gp2_200907/#/8
michelle - It sounds like Scar Tissue is a pretty good book...I'll have to pick it up. I was hanging out with a friend of mine tonight who is a big RHCP fan...I meant to ask her about the book (I bet she has it), but I forgot. Argh...
Don1963 - Welcome back!
elpp - When did you run into Joe in Universal City? If it was on a show day it must have been a while ago...I don't think he's played there in the past decade or so. It's cool that you saw him, though...was he busy buying toys for ZZ? ;-)
And I also noticed the big jump from Crystal Planet to Chickenfoot on Joe's list. I find that interesting because, AFAIK, all of the albums between those two were made the same way (Joe did demos at home, playing everything himself, and then the band came into the studio to redo the other parts; EOC fits this too, in its own way). I wonder why Joe would go back to that process again and again when none of those albums made his short list of favorites.
Personally, I'd love to see Joe do his next solo album the way he did JS95 or CP. With the way the Chickenfoot album turned out, maybe he'll do that...I'm hopeful like you are.
roo - Yeah, I think you're right about the number of EPs...500 is the number I see reported in most places. That makes it pretty rare, but then again there always seems to be one on Ebay whenever I look (a few times a year). The sellers are usually asking for about $500...maybe that's too high, so they aren't selling?
If you do make it out to the US, you'll have to go to In-N-Out with me and cosmic_ape before the Universal City show. We can promise you a great burger, but if you want to top it with Vegemite or beetroot or other crazy Australian things you'll have to bring your own. ;-)
Skippygirl - Ah...I didn't see the other email you mentioned, but I looked back now and found it. I'll look into that one too...thanks.
And someone needs to send Joe the link to the full version of that group doing Toto's Africa, that cosmic_ape posted (I didn't forget credit this time!)... ;-)
...Austin...

Good morning / evening
Austin- THX for the GP link...didn't buy that issue.
McDave hope the b-day went well and wishing you many more.
Zen- congrats on the new group. There is no substitute for playing together. It seems to help keep the creative element going.

Hi Skippy- Rice..haven't had to irrigate since July 4...but bad news for soybeans who can't stand wet feet. Too much rain.
I would really like to go to the Tahoe gig just to be able to join some of the others. I may try to go to the Atlanta show. It's really difficult to plan that far ahead right now. And with the Texas trip earlier, I really hate to spend more $ on travel.
I hope these guys stay together long enough to do an extensive world & US tour.

Just wondering, when is your plan to come back down under? Your concert last year at the Enmore was AWESOME! The funniest part was as every one was leaving as everyone had their heads to the floor searching for your picks, and I mean EVERYONE. Anyway love your stuff man, always an inspiration every time I hear your stuff. Catchya
