I know, how stupid to pawn something like that. you wanna throw up a little? I got 500 bucks on it! I did have every intention of getting it back, but I could not come up with the cash in time! I also had no idea it was so rare. I was maybe 20 or 21 years old.. I had no idea man! I was just talking to Rich at Ibanezrules.com about it. He says they made 20, and he says he has only seen one ever go to auction. I also keep trying to get him to give me a Value on them, but he won't tell me says I'm better off not knowing!
Now I'm just an unemployed guy, trying to get some equipment back again, so I can start makeing some money doing what I love!

hey smokin i know what you mean about pawning a great axe and regreting it! when i was a teenager (long,long ago) i bought a Guild S60-D. it was a beautiful guitar and whenever i showed it to anyone who knew guitars it was always like wow can i play that. well i pawned it when i was about 20 to pay some bills and regreted it ever since. found out recently that it is a rare piece and worth big bucks now. i'll never pawn an axe again!

Smokintonye - don't feel too bad. I don't think anyone at the time bought them realising how sought after they'd be. That sure wasn't the reason I bought a Ltd, I just wanted a JS and it happened to look ultra cool
Michelle - I've stopped talking to myself now so you can ignore ignoring me : )
... and now, some Steve Vai and Orianthi. Haven't watched the whole thing yet, just thought peeps might wanna looky

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:-(
