Hello ppl of T2J and JOE,..........I received an email portrait "Happy Holidays" greeting from Steve Vai. He is sitting on a royal red chair with his EVO at his side. He thanks all us fans for our support in 2009 and wishes us all a Happy New Year. My favorite quote on that page, "Music is Everything."
JOE--When I think of you as a special fan of Steve's and Steve likewise yours, it makes me smile. I hope thinking about this helps you smile, too.
Hope everyone who celebrates Christmas and/or the multitude of holidays (so many this time of year) feels the joy of sharing good times (including music) with loved ones.
Love, peace, happy times and lots of beautiful music!

I HAVE to go to El Paso to finish up my Christmas shopping. Wait times at the border crossing are 3+ hours. Not happenin'
Smart move Austin, those tix will become very valuable as the venue sells out.
I'm skipping that one, while I liked the song being played on the teaser video, I recall hearing Bridge Across Forever and giving up halfway thru it, so I'm not really a fan of them. I'd rather keep some money in the bank in case DT decides to do a special show to compensate their lack of touring in 2010. (Or in case Petrucci tours behind his next solo album)

Thanks Peace Lily for the link to the interview. Just wish they would announce they have accepted invitations to Australia :0).
Wonder who exactly has to invite them?? Anybody know, so that I can bang on some doors here?
Saw my brother yesterday and he gave me his Line 6 Spider III amp thingy - it's so cool!!!! Hilarious that I still can't play more than an open chord but I was able to plug in and play around with the effects and it's fantastic!! So much better for Smoke On The Water haha!
Can anyone give me some tips on what I can do with it?? I downloaded the user manual but it assumes a level of prior knowledge ("add dirt to the Crunch") so I have no idea....

OOOOhhhhhh Skippy, yer about to learn a whole new language, LOL!!! Fat, dirty, grinding, gritty, luminous, shimmering.....talk to a guitar player and yer eyes will glaze over :)))) Especially one that's a "gear-head" like my son...or Joe :) Have fun with yer new "toy" !!
Just hit a Sam Goody's "going out of business" sale....ended up with 6 "Live in concert" dvds: Nickelback, Joe Bonamassa, Creed, Lacuna Coil, Nightwish and.....ish....Avril. Deys all be fer Chrisper...had to put several back cuz it was too $$$$, but there were several more tempting ones....EC's Crossroads 2007, YJM, Eric Johnson in Anaheim, Bon Jovi, and John Mayer. Looked for the UFO vid with Vinnie Moore playing, Dream Theater Score, and any Jeff Beck but they dint have those. All in all a very successful adventure :) At least Chrispie thinks so! I'd be richer if I'da stayed home in bed!!

burly - Yes, Joe is playing at all of the Experience Hendrix gigs in the spring. The EH website isn't as clear as it has been in the past about just who will be at what show, but Joe specifically said so in an interview that was posted here a few weeks back.
elpp - I actually haven't heard much Transatlantic, but I'm excited about the idea of going to a concert blind (or deaf, I guess).
I think there's a song or two on Mike Portnoy's latest instructional DVD...that's all I've heard from the band. I do like Neal Morse / Spock's Beard, though, so I am very excited for the show. I hope it works out.
cheese101 - Great job with the music DVDs...!
I have the Lacuna Coil and Eric Johnson DVDs you mentioned...good choices there. And you need to get Dream Theater's Score because, well, I was there! :-)
I don't think Chris knows much Cheap Trick, but I bet they're a band he would appreciate. Their Live At Budokan CD/DVD box set is quite nice.
...Austin...

hello and goodbye to all....
This is the last day i can get on the internet before the holiday...
Can you imagine how many pages to catch up on after two weeks!!!!!
Anyway
Just wanted to give you all a big HUG and a kiss and say...
Have a Happy Holiday...whatever you are doing...
but if you are at a sad place at the moment then know that there are those who are thinking of you and wishing they could make things better...
that would be me for a start...
but I am sure there are many more.
Take care in the snow everyone....
Hugs Satriella xx
