It's funny how after...what, like 17 years it still makes me sad. Makes me wonder where it is today? We just need a Time Machine, so we can go back and kick ourselves in the Ass! :) for being idiots. Oh well, life goes on. Now I just wanna get a Regular production JS, but it will be a while before I can afford one:(

Wooleyman - Check out Orianthi on Wikipedia for more info.
Lately she's been known as "Michael Jackson's would-be guitarist", but she really is so much more than that. I've known about her for a few years...I saw her open for Steve Vai twice in 2007.
She can PLAY, but her album doesn't really sound like her. It's overproduced and poppy...argh.
Here's a video of her from that 2007 tour:

Damn i failed on the I just wanna rock paris sweeptakes :(
2 questions wrong, How many times has Joe Satriani been nominated for a Grammy Award for 'Best Instrumental Performance'? The website where i looked forgot to count 1 i think :P
And this 1: The Grand Rex Theater, where this concert was recorded, is the largest single movie theater on what continent?
I entered the country instead of the continent pretty stupid because i live on that continent.
But after all its about his wonderfull music wich i can enjoy every day. And hope i can see him fast in the Netherlands because i never saw him live yet :(
Greetings from the Netherlands and hoping to hear a lot from you this year Joe!!

Good day all,
In case any of you are interested, there are still autographed copies of the DVD/CD package available if you order through here. I ordered one yesterday and called back today and the man said they still hadn't sold 200 so I ordered an extra. Always like to have one that I never have to open.... You do have to order the 'package' DVD/CD (cheaper that way anyhow), and the autograph booklet is on the CD only, but that's better than ordering through Amazon and getting nothing. And, ordering here with expedited shipping vs. Amazon with two-day shipping is only two cents difference. Probably best to call first to make sure they aren't sold out before you order, though. (1-800-294-0432)
Also, I found decent quality torrents of Chickenfoot live in Chicago and LA during the road test tour. The sound is actually quite a bit better than I anticipated when I stumbled across them.
Ian

turbo236 - Ian, thanks for the info on the CD/DVD package. That preorder price is pretty good so I went ahead and ordered from there. I didn't call about the autograph...but considering how long the preorder has been up, if they were still there when you called today it's probably safe to say they're still there now.
flupke - About the contest...it just says you need to answer the questions, it doesn't say your answers need to be right. So maybe you'll be OK. ;-) And I'm saying that because if the answers need to be in the exact format they're listed on the answer page, I don't know if anyone will win. Question one asks for a city but the answer is "city, country" and question three has a "city, country" answer for something that's larger than the city mentioned. Anyway...haha.
Onto Chickenfoot bootlegs (and back to turbo236's post, kinda)...the spring shows in MA and NY were also recorded, if you feel like searching for them. It's been a while since I've listened to them, but I remember the two you have being the best of the four, as far as sound quality is concerned.
I gave copies of those four shows to Joe at the Best Buy signing (here)...he seemed surprised that I had them all just a few days after that tour ended.
I doubt it's that simple, but wouldn't it be funny if hearing those bootlegs made him switch to Marshall? Haha...
...Austin...

Hmmm... I'm being tag teamed by M & T ........ that's a first ; D
Flattering really lol.... be worried if you joined in with the tag teaming there though Cappy!
Do The Stu - now that would be entertaining (switch to Marshall)! It would have been cool to see Orianthi on that tour
Smokintonye - I wouldn't beat yourself up too much. Are you checking the bay for 1000's/1200's? There's a vintage JS1 going in the next 14hrs that looks pretty clean

Yeah, I'm always looking, Ebay, Craigslist, local stores, I can't help myself, but honestly, right now I can't afford it. I'm in the process of trying to get a Jsx 212 combo off a local Craigslist add for 650.00. So yeah, it'll be awhile before I get my hands on a JS??? My Ibanez S470 will have to do:-(

Austin dts-..yeah Up in the Sky would be a fitting name....or Oriental Melody Machine?...he uses alot of that effect there....thanks for the relinks....there definatle was something missing from that display..lol..front and center!
So i saw the video about the cheap part being used in the Big Bad Wah and it is concerning to me as i havent purchased it yet and theres nothing i cant stand more that a squeaky wahwah. I have to take the posters word as he seems to know what hes doing. ..and to be ignored by Vox is serious and should be addressed. I consider anything with Joe's name on it to be quality and this news is disheartening and has me happy with my 535q with years of flawless use...until i hear this part has been upgraded..:)
didnt know you could lose your entry with a wrong answer....thanks god for google..lol.....it was 15 nominations..whew..i almost wrote 14
Listening to Chords of Life...wow..good times..:)...ok.Joe .you say a guitar with coin marks thats on every album...gotta be an acoustic?....

AXE I want to admit it is very very disappointing by vox products, especially after joe made several promotion humor videos on youtube in regard of vox products. If I was joe satriani? I'd check into that but for a pedal that need to be upgraded and no vox tech support? yes you are right , but I'm just kinda speechless about it

I've never tried the Big Bad Wah, but the journalist in me is wondering a few things.
The guy spends 10 minutes trashing the pedal, but he doesn't ever show his face on camera. What's he afraid of?
And what other gear is he using? Maybe there's something unique he's using that adds a lot of gain somewhere else in the chain, making a faint scratch/squeak much louder. Maybe the wiring in his house is old.
This guy is just one person who made a YouTube video. I don't expect a high-profile magazine like Guitar World to give an extremely negative review to something with Joe Satriani's name on it, but the BBW has been out long enough now to where I think if there were a widespread problem more than one person would have said something about it. (And TheHawkGuy, I'm not attacking you...if you know of other bad reviews please post them. I did a quick Google search and didn't find anything major.)
The pedal is mass produced, so it just isn't practical to have all of the best parts inside and out. Sacrifices have to be made to keep the cost down (so it sells...VOX is a business), yes, but this guy makes it sound like VOX and Satch released the pedal just to screw people over.
Anyway...
...Austin...
