Joe Satriani One more request? I see blu-ray format is out ? Why not to see all of your dvds shows format into blu-ray format as well..

How do we view G3, is it Joe plus 2, or Joe and Vai plus 1?

I vote for Joe Bonamassa too..........my #2 favorite Joe........

Peas Lily, then you never wanna go on this ride at Epcot. My uncle, who is also afraid of heights, challenged me and said that he went on it. What I found out later from my aunt is that he closed his eyes most of the time. lol! Lets just say...I thought I was gonna die!! lol! I think I said the word shit about 100x. lol! You swoop over mountains, rivers, oceans, you name it. If you love that sort of thing, it's amazing. If you don't, it's hilariously terrifying. Let me just add that it swoops you around so that you think yer feet are going to hit bottom. It's like a bad trip man! lol!

oxley11: There were a TON of amps on stage at the EH show I saw, and most of them were miked up and turned on the whole time, so it was hard to tell who was using what, but I read in an interview with Joe that he is using an old Marshall 6100 Half Stack and his new blue JS2400 triple single coil prototype.
Sounded excellent!!

Baby Huey has uploaded the rest of his vids of Joe on 107.7 The Bone

here

From there you can see all the rest :)

Michelle- that ride sounds and looks cool ....I have a strong physical reaction to heights......I have tried to overcome it 'cause you miss out on some cool stuff.....but to no avail . I can handle it on a vid on the computer though . :)

Hope everyone is doing well.

What a day/night: I get called in to work a few hours, chatted on here, updated more friends on Facebook, ran 14 miles for the running group, did laundry, listened to all of The Electric Joe Satriani: An Anthology, and wished my parents a Happy Anniversary.

Tracie, have fun in Reno seeing Joe again.

Austin, hope all is well for you on your vacation.

Skippygirl: Hope you're doing well.

McDave: The temperatures are getting warmer, but it will decline a little throughout this week.

Another day of work tomorrow; time for bed now. TtYL Peeps!

Hiya Glitzy - I'm fab thanks. Lots on as always and very little time for guitar at the moment unfortunately due to some work deadlines keeping me up past midnight this week, thank heavens for the ipod.

Joey 1 is doing a triathlon on Sunday - about 3500 kids do it each year and will be a fun day. Looking forward to the Easter break.

Hope all the good peeps who go the EH at the Warfield post a gig report please!

Joe - probably a hometown crowd with lots of friends and family so have a great time.

Learnt a little factoid just now:

Guitarist Joe Satriani's 2002 album and music publishing company are both named "Strange Beautiful Music" which is a lyric from Third Stone From The Sun.

Yes, Joe has been publishing under SBM for a long time...since the very beginning, or maybe shortly after. If you look through Joe's old posts from around the time the SBM album came out you'll see mention of the Third Stone From The Sun connection, too.

Any reviews from last night's gig? I heard from MegaBoyd that Sammy Hagar guested on Foxey Lady.

Well, that's all from me for now...back to playing in the snow for one more full day. Skiing sure is one big rush... ;-)

3rd Stone From the Sun VEGAS

Hello Joe and God Bless You.

I just tweeted something clearly evident: 2006-2010: Joe Satriani - five albums, EVH - ZERO! I think you keep me happier than any other artist at this time in my life - 100 percent happier!

I have been a disco fan in the 70s, rock (KISS in the 70s, VH & YOU - 80s +), pop, metal, country fan (nothing after about 1990 though and certainly nothing today)... As a kid I was laughed at one day when we did oral presentations of our hobbies. I said I collected Elton John & Billy Joel albums. It wasn't too traumatic! lol But I put emphasis on artists who are still around, doing pretty well.... I loved and love KISS and Van Halen; again, still around, doing pretty well.... Boston....Journey; still doing it today. The point is, those who I've picked (as opposed to say Poison, Cinderella, the Outlaws, Coverdale/Page) to follow closest are still relevant. My ex-brother-in-law introduced me to you when Surfing With The Alien was new. I was floored. Ed floored me. Eric Johnson floored me.

You continue to floor me all the time and really have a greater drive than a lot of those who I mentioned are "still around" and I suppose there are a variety of reasons, including the state of the industry, financially, today... Point being, you are RELEVANT. You stay RELEVANT and CURRENT.

My son and I have seen you in Cleveland with the Foot and in Akron in '06. I have to say, you blew me away on stage, more than anyone else ever has. Ed has let me down with his inconsistency and the declining quality of product he puts forth...ON STAGE. He's always going to do great stuff, but he's not into the groove he was in the 80s, like you were then and like you remain, and like you have become MORE SO YOURSELF. I think it's great to become older. Becoming more active with age is a blessing.

You're blessed. You live the life we all aspire to, those who play strings.... Keep it up. Never change. Don't change. Keep doing what you do. I understand why people won't put money into productions that will be downloaded for free.... I get it. Still, there's a 3D approach to movie making, so there's got to be something the music can do or create or accompany that can't be downloaded.

With your mind, I challenge you to be the one to come up with "it". Why do I just know you will!?!?!?!?

Keep putting out your spirit.

Oh, and the next Chickenfoot record I think should be called "Spotaneous Organimation" because

1. The awe inspiring story and chilling feeling I get when you consider "Down The Drain" in your membrane. I think that is well defined as "spontaneous organization" because that is what it is! 2. I think something animated should show up out of the ether when the music plays. 'Good idea for a video. I think a new "player" and a new format in addition to (instead of) CDs could create the visual. Nobody will be able to download that! 3. It's a cool name. 4. That's what my idea of "visual without TV" going along with music, is; spontaneous organi-MAtion.

Let me know what you think!
