Randell, we have a nice recording setup in the basement. They were recording that session, but my son had the sample rate (whatever that is) off, and the computer shut down and lost it all. I think they're going to practice again this weekend, so my hubs will set it up to make sure they get something this time :-)

Hi Guys! I'm new around here so I'm not sure if this question has already been asked.. Are there any plans of releasing a DVD of the latest G3 tour? the one with Paul GIlbert and John Petrucci?

Joe - Your JS24 looks and sounds beautiful...I love that shade of blue! Of all of your "normal" guitars, this one is by far my favorite.
Everyone else (and Joe, too)...
Excellent show! This gig was at the same venue where Chickenfoot ended their last year. The show wasn't sold out, but there was a good turnout and the crowd was energetic.
The lineup was similar to the show I saw in 2008, and a lot of the same songs were played by the same people. I'd say most of the duplicate performances were better then than now, but this show was still solid.
I know Joe had top billing on the tour promo stuff, but I wasn't actually expecting him to get the last slot during the show...that was a pleasant surprise.
I had my eye on the sound guy's setlist, but another "fan" beat me to it. He was a real jerk and wouldn't let me take a picture of it even though I asked nicely. I was able to get a setlist from the lighting guy instead, so it's all OK...but that fan is still a jerk.
The setlist:

Joe played Third Stone From The Sun before Foxey Lady and they didn't do the last encore, but the rest of the setlist is correct. It'll change a bit as the tour goes on, though, as the lineup differs slightly from show to show (Robert Randolph and Susan Tedeschi are joining the tour later).
More in my next post...

There were some minor technical (sound) issues throughout the gig, but they weren't too distracting. I'm just picky.
Eric Johnson was great, but his sound bugged me at times. He switches between different amps when he plays live (he's picky with tone), and his main lead tone wasn't miked (or maybe mixed) well...it sounded piercing and thin instead of warm and fat. His vocals were good, though, and the crowd loved him.
I love watching Jonny Lang and Brad Whitford play together. Of all the different guitarists I saw tonight, these two were the most "G3-like" with the way they traded solos and switched between playing rhythm and lead.
Kenny Wayne Shepherd really got the crowd going, as anyone who has seen him before will understand (not to say they weren't into the show before he went on). His guitar cut out briefly at least three times during his set, but I think he was to blame (it looked like he came unplugged from his pedalboard). His amp mike cut out completely during one of his last solos, but that was probably a problem at the booth.
Satch was awesome (big surprise there, haha). Third Stone From The Sun was by far the night's most "out there" song, but it was cool. Joe sat down at his pedalboard to mess with his delays and other effects, just like he did during Searching on the ITLIS? tour. As a quick aside, I now have a pretty good idea of what Woodstock Jam would sound like live. :-)
Foxey Lady was my least favorite of Joe's songs, probably because it sounded too similar to what I heard on the G3 2007 tour.
All Along The Watchtower sounded perfect...I just don't get how Joe can make it look so effortless. If I had to pick one Satch highlight, it'd be the main solo here.
Red House was a real treat. On a personal note, it's really cool that within six months I've seen Joe jam with half of Van Halen and one of Aerosmith's guitarists. Those were my top two bands for a while when I was younger, before I ever knew who Satch was, so it's cool that things have come "full circle" in a sense.
Most people here probably associate Red House with the first G3 album, but Aerosmith have been playing it live ever since the 1970s so Brad Whitford isn't a stranger to the song by any means. He took the first solos, and he can REALLY play...I think he'll surprise a lot of T2Jers on this tour.
I need to get some sleep, so I'll stop here for now. I'll fill in more details tomorrow, though.
...Austin...

Awww webby Jon, we'd do both shows if we could, but they play the same night, dangit! Guess we'll take live Joe over screen Joe any day though and will just hafta wait for the dvd to release :) But it's great for those who can't make the EH show! Thanks for the heads up and special dealio!
Austin, sounds fantastic, and based on reading Joe's blog, he's totally loving this. But we prolly all kinda figgered he would, lol!! And a new color JS2400?? Sweet!! I was expecting to see the white, but that blue should be interesting. I'm betting it's the same color as what Joe gave Jimmy Fallon a coupla weeks ago. Other than Joe,we haven't seen any of the players live so this show is going to be a real highlight for us :) Enjoy Aspen....Aspen?? woo woo! lol! Oh, and ps, you might be proud of me that my musical tastes are continuing to expand, checking out Paramour and Muse and Linkin Park....I know, takes me long enough, but whenever I venture "out" I have to give credit to Chris for pushing me, and then I think of you and your diverse musical tastes and collection :)
Guitarvibes, thanks for the blog addy, it'll be fun to stay updated with Joe on his journey.

I have been trying to locate a physical mailing address to send a letter to Mr. Satriani for almost a year. Does anyone know what that may be or where I might find this information? I have a looong story to tell as well as unused(burnt!) tickets to send (as proof!) to my rock gahd regarding my dream of seeing him in person in Phoenix a couple years ago. Unusual and simply f*d up circumstances occurred on that f*n dust bowl day. Thank "ya's" for the assistance, fer sure!
