Skippygirl . . Still waiting for the dvd to arrive on british shores too!
The cd is available here but I think you will get the dvd before we do because when live in San Francisco was released here the cd was available before the dvd but as luck would have it my brother was touring round Oz and he saw it on video and bought it and sent it to me! (:
I never went to the San Fran gig but went to 3 gigs from Joe's Last tour so i'm dying to get my hands on the dvd!!!!
ESPECIALLY FOR GHOSTS LIVE ! ! ! !

Michelle and Austin---Interesting stuff about Bass players. I've noticed that Joe has mainly worked with Stu Hamm and Matt Bissonette. It's a surprise to see him with Dave LaRue who I think of as Steve Morse's bass player. A pleasant surprise! And what a playing style!
I'm not that familiar with Matt. I love the way Stu plays......he really brings a trio together and I enjoy his steady style.
Two other bass players of note are Billy Sheehan who I think of as Steve Vai's bass player and Mike Daane who I have heard on Andy Timmons' album Resolution.
Glitz Man--Hope your running goes well.....have fun!
Peace Lily--Thanks for sending your vid links......great memories of Joe and learning for relatively new fans like me.

dont like matt with joe at all, stu's the best fit, dve larue was awsome to see he done an awsoeme job, seen em in germany with joe on the SC tour, he even got pissed at my friend
and that over 55 thing was jus a random news fact with no thought or incentive toward anyone just passing it on since lots of oldies here.. right?

Uncle roy---Do you think you'll try for the job offer or no? I hope the pay is reasonable.
Jobs in California are few and far between, at least in my area.

I liked Dave Larue quite a bit. He seemed really engaged in the music and really played well with Jeff. It's funny, because you watch the G3 in Tokyo when Dave L was playing with John Petrucci and it looked like they had no chemistry at all. I don't know if Dave was a last minute fill in or what.

Slanshroom: Thanks Roy. Hope you get the guitar job/gig. You deserve it!
Glad to see Canada got their first gold in the Olympics (on their home soil). I'll miss it tonight due to work. I wanted to see if the Chinese pair (Shen & Zhao) will get the gold in pairs figure skating. I'm also rooting for the other Chinese pairs and the couple from Germany. Russia won it too many times; it's time for another country to win it. Best to all the athletes.

I don't agree with La Rue not having chemistry with Petrucci... It's just that JP's music has so many odd time signature changes, you have to be awake and count all the time. Besides, recreating those tunes for a trio had Dave play a lot of unison and harmonized lines with JP, that ain't no easy task, specially in a bass where the neck is so much bigger... Watch the DVD again, Dave is locking up with Portnoy so JP can shine, and he did a wonderful job at it...

Slanshroom- RE; fishing chocolate biscuits out the DVD player.... ;-) Da good ol days ..when my boy was small he would put all kind of things in the VCR ...... toast , crackers..etc. now he's almost grown up......those days do go by sooo FAST ( seems like yesterday)...............
Good Luck with yer red tape issues too.
GG2- Your welcome for the links and yes ..... a good source of learning for newbies 'cause I am one too. I can't stop watching Joe links.......so much to catch up on and so little time.... And on the age issue, I think age is just a number ...look at Joe he's more active than most teens ......... I wonder if he's still eating vegan? Seems to be working for him.....
Blue Moon - I too am curious bout the friend "pissing" Dave off........you must fill us in on the details.
Glitzman- Way to go!!!!!!!!!!

Slans,
Good luck with the geetar teaching. I wish you get the job.
If I were 30 years younger and living a happy student live, I would apply for the rookie guitar class, if you were the teacher.
