ha haaaaa great vid: Joe as the jetsetting monk from hell

and I got movie tickets for This is it

Skippygirl - It really was my pleasure. I would have tried to get ANY T2J'er back there, but especially one that had traveled so far! As soon as I heard roo's cool accent I pointed at him and asked "roo?!" and he just smiled, lol. Priceless! :-)

Whenever I'm lucky enough to chat with Joe I'm always sure to thank him for T2J as a place for Satchaholics to chat about all things Joe (& other stuff). I also thanked Jon Luini again.

I actually asked Joe about the CF-logo'd robe and he said that someone from Best Buy (I believe) had them made and gave them out to the band & crew. Nobody knew what to do with them or where/when to wear them because nobody wants to fill up their luggage with such a cumbersome item just to wear in their hotel rooms so they just sort of travel with the stage gear. Joe wore one a few nights earlier for the encore to crack everyone up and decided to do so again for Berkeley. We joked about how it all goes back to the recording at Lucas' "Skwalker Ranch" with the Alec Guiness Jedi look.

Ah man, the robe would have been perfect for the vid axeshredder posted from the end of the Atl. Cty. show(now in joe's favorites) wherein we hear some SUNN *))) type sounds.

Al surfer: guess you're a "63" also! gotta tell ya, me and the mrs think that was an awesome thing getting Roo to meet Joe. not too many people that would do that. i'm over the top as far as passion for Chickenfoot. the cd is still spinning in my vehicle non-stop. in the house we break it up with the live Chickenfoot recordings in Boston and NYC. in between those we watch the DVD's we made of all 5 shows we went to at least twice a week! it's like a ritual now on Saturday nights. watch the DVD's drinking tequila and when the discs are done the fun keeps goin lol.

thanks everyone for the posts...

Randell- thanks man... more stuff has come up though... just doesnt end for me... its crazy. My car broke down. Then just yesterday, we find out my mother in law has some kind of kidney disease and is going to die. She doesnt have much time i guess....

It just doesnt end...

but like you said... I need to keep counting my blessings.

Aaand I'm off to pick up roo and cosmic_ape for an afternoon of Amoeba, the Rock Walk in front of Guitar Center, and (of course) In-N-Out. Oh yeah, and I think some band called Chickenfoot is in town.

If anyone reading this wants to meet up with us at the venue, drop me an email...I'll check it from my phone before the show starts.

Jon, you must be right about wolf2. Lol!

Skippygirl, that's taken about 3 rows in front of me. Austin was further back on the right. Yes, I promise to say hi from you tonight skippy.

Al, Since everyone is in the mood I'll also thank you again for mentioning me to joe, I'm glad I had patience to keep hangin in there and the security was happy to let me wait.

Just sitting in the hotel waiting for Austin to pick me up. Lookin forward to in-n-out, but in the rush to pack my pants I forgot to bring some beetroot.

Hey peeps - help me out here...

I just got a text from Tracie. Her dad is in the ER for the 2nd time in 12 hours, and he's in severe pain. Would you all join me and send good vibes/prayers to Mr Selby? It would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

roo, Do The Stu, cosmic_ape - HAVE A GREAT TIME, its 3:15pm there already how about some tweets and posts and pics to tell us what you've bought and seen?

And tweets/posts from the line and venue in a few horus would be awesome. It's only 8:15 am here so I got ALL day haha. Will be thinking of you rockin out, and I guess since it's the last show it will be a biggie so PLS provide updates!

Cheesey - all my positive vibes to your Dad, lotsa love from Australia is headed his way.

Cheese- Sending prayers your dads way. Hope he is better very soon.

Gotta Have Joe- Hang in there. My dad had kidney failure but he did dialysis to clean his blood. After about 5 years he received a transplant . Can your mother-in-law not do dialysis? Hope something can be done to help her...

Tracie says THANK YOU, and please keep the prayers & good vibes coming for the next few days if you would. Her dad needs some very serious surgery, but they have to wait for some swelling to subside first. It might happen tomorrow? No one knows yet. Poor dude. Her parents are the sweetest lil' things.

Thanks peeps!

Queensshit just finishing, front and center ( in Joe terms ), look for the in-n-out hat !!

LOL!!!!

Hi everybody,

My first solo album, DIRTY JEANS, heavyblues instrumental, will be soon available onto Jamendo.

Waiting, you'll find here 3 pilot songs, Pulsions, The Riff & The Sweat, & the tribute to SRV called Riviera from Hell.

If some interested.

And I'm back at home...

The Chickenfoot show was very solid, a great end for the tour, although I think Berkeley was a tad better. The set was the same that we know and love, the energy level was high, and Sammy's voice still sounded great.

They brought Davy Knowles out to jam during Bad Motor Scooter, and he held his own with Joe better than most other guest guitarists I've seen at Satch shows...until Joe started playing with his teeth, that is. ;-)

It was great hanging out with roo and cosmic_ape...the three of us got a nice photo with Joe that I'm sure will be posted once roo is back home. There's a photo of us chowing down on In-N-Out that's just waiting to be shared, as well.

I also talked to Chad briefly...I asked him to recommend a Glenn Hughes album that he worked on, so I could hear some of his playing there. He suggested Soul Mover. I also told him I was excited about the Meatbats but hadn't bought the CD yet...and little did I know, I was actually standing in front of all of them. So I got their autographs too...woohoo!

The Meatbats are playing at a club in LA tomorrow, but so is Davy Knowles...I haven't decided yet which (if either) I'll go to. Argh...tough choices! ;-)

Skippygirl, you've got a direct message from me on Twitter. You'll have something from me that roo will get to you once he's back in Australia.

EDIT - There are two Ns in Glenn Hughes.
