Thanks Axe (you're up early) I'll have another listen then haha.
I like this from lower down the page;

ULTIMATE GUITAR
The quality of music by the 15-time Grammy nominee is unquestionable, yet the extraordinary editing and artful stage lighting makes this Satriani “live” DVD a pleasure for the new viewer, as well as the long-time fan.
MUSIC RADAR
Filmed at the Grand Rex Theater in Paris, France on 27 May 2008, Live In Paris: I Just Wanna Rock is as stunning visually as it is musically (we’ve seen it, so we can tell you it’s got the goods!).
Performing with longtime cohorts Stu Hamm on bass, Jeff Campitelli on drums and Galen Henson on rhythm guitar, Satriani blazes through an impeccable 22-song set that mixes classics like Satch Boogie, Ice 9 and Flying In A Blue Dream along with recent hits such as Super Colossal and I Just Wanna Rock.
Interesting in the interview how Joe explains he was approached by a Director who shot and paid for it, and gets to use it once then it's Satch's. Might explain the new take on the editing.

Turbo - glad you feel the same way about the live feel. It's quite amazing really. I can't personally think of another band that has managed to capture that live feel.
I got up at 5 and listened to the rest of the CD. Truly an amazing concert Joe! Wow. There is so much energy on this cd its amazicdng. I like the new take on Super Colossal. This is a great CD top to bottom.
I am glad I listened to it first. It makes me really want to watch the DVD. I won't get a good oopportunity to watch it without the kids pestering me until Saturday morning. I will say wether the graphics are for me or they are not for me, the cd makes up for both anyway. I'm very excited to watch the DVD this weekend.
I hope everyone enjoys the cd as much as I do.
Kuddos to you Joe. It was well worth the wait.

Guitarvibes: That's only because they don't understand the transition or realisation of nirvana.
You see, the internet is one of the first things to really help people understand the universe and their place, the realisation that monks used to find in Koan and meditation.
The internet addict starts to build the same picture of their own insignificance but instead of transcending, they focus on the spam carrying erectile disfunction advertisements.
Instead they should see the ultimate truth and understand what they are. That is, both nothing.... and everything.....
and I don't even take meds....

PS. Hey, I got a really cool old tin sign with the silver surfer on it from the "time machine" shop... Forgot to mention that.

In AWM, AWY on Live In Paris I hear hints of Jeff Beck-style fragile emotional playing during the 'verses'. Góód signs of an ageing, growing guitarist!

Michelle - I know!! I was all over the city last night. It was well worth it though!!
As for listening with the Koss PortaPro's....they do sound great with the cd, however, due to the huge soundstage, you're really better with a full size over the ear headphone. I did listen to 10 tracks with my PortaPros this morning and they all sounded phenomenal. Every detail was shining through crystal clear. They just shrink that huge sound a bit, because they are more of an in your face type of sound.

Peace Lily - LOL. Thanks. There was no way I was not going to get my hands on at least the CD last night. The funny thing was I actaully was trying to time my drive to see how close I would cut it to making my daughter stand out in the cold and dark after dance class. Sigh.....I'm glad she didn't have to wait. lol. She thought I was silly though because I was like a 10 year old boy at Christmas the entire drive home. I was just happy I guess. The music wasn't a shock...it was great just as you can always count on from Joe. The sound just really caught me off guard. Capturing the live vibe like that just wasn't what I was expecting. So it was great and I smiled all the way home! =)

Good morning everyone here are my initial thoughts on the Live in Paris DVD and the hooting and hollering going on about the visuals.
Joe talked about the visual tendencies that the Europeans (I think) have towards music DVD's that being said, we all knew it was coming and the pre-ordering was done anyway. Enough of that onto my happy place.

I have the DVD playing in the living room, and I was just doing dishes in the kitchen. Funny enough, the graphics didn't bother me at all! lol!
Next DVD after this one is MJ - This Is It. Oddly enough, I'm kind of addicted to it. lol!
C'mon Al, let's dance. Mama-se, mama-sa, ma-ma-coo-sa... Don't give me no shimone either. Save that for later.

Here is a video of me warming up before a recent gig. Don't laugh too hard ;)
Oh and I almost forgot. That is our bass player, who desperately needs the 12 step program, if you know what I mean.
