Long day today..... had CPR/First-Aid classes for 6hrs today. Longtime since I've been in a class-room of any kind but its good stuff to know....maybe I'll help save a life some day.

Webby Jon- Thanx for the Joe Bosso/Music Radar link....love to read about the inspiration and process of our Joe's songwriting & again I'd like to say that the site is looking really great . the changes are befiitting a rockstar of Joe's caliber. :-)

Song requests...I have sooo many favorites every time some one posts their requests..... I am like ...OH THATS A GOOD ONE!!!! I'll be happy no matter what is played but just to join in the conversation I'll add a few...

~DOG WITH CROWN & EARRING~ SECRET PRAYER~ MADE OF TEARS~ WHY~ CHORDS OF LIFE~

and last but not least “Always With Me, Always With You” :-)

I didn't see a request for requests, but since everyone is throwing theirs out there, I would LOVE to hear Dog With Crown and Earring. I'd like to see Time Machine, Andalusia, Ghosts, and Super Colossal stay in the setlist for a while too. I wouldn't be upset if Luminous Flesh Giants was in there too.... I'd like to hear Joe play The Meaning of Love again too, or some of the 'forgotten' songs from SC; mainly Theme for a Strange World or Movin' On... That is a damn good album. If I had to pick just one song, it'd be Dog With Crown and Earring, though.

It will be exciting to hear the old stuff played through Joe's new rig on this tour... I assume he is sticking with the JVM 410's.

I just heard that awesome groove off that sample!!!! I want to hear more!!! I'm so excited I just might explode!! I wasn't expecting the main screen to change already. Does anybody know what song that is?

I'm still trying to find the "God Is Crying" sample on Twitter.

Awww MAN!! Chris and I just spent the past few hours building him 2 new speaker stands. We first went to Home Depot and bought all the wood, screws, paint...then went off to my dad's workshop to get to work.

My dad came and supervised and shared wisdom so we'd do it right, LOL!!

And I'm proud to say, we got em done and they look GREAT! Painting tomorrow, it got too late tonight, we both have blisters...but they are exactly right and what he wanted so he's deleriously happy, lol! Almost 30 inches high and so sturdy I think an elephant could sit on em!

I so totally rock, LMAO!! And now....off I hobble to bed...ow...ow ow.....owwwwwww.....ouch.

Joe - for setlist ideas please can you include....

Dog with Crown and Earring!! (Turbo236) I'll second that, LOVE that one a lot

An maybe you can throw in Clouds Race Across the Sky, Love Thing, Ghosts, Musterion, and Time Machine and If I Could Fly. I know we had a few of those last time out but I've missed them : )

Peace - thanks for the link and the movie heads up. See you in Jan maybe?

In fact - Cheese, Do The Stu, Blue Moon, Mahavishnu - January peoples? x2 yes? and maybe Skippy Doo

GoldenGirl2 - believe me, I know how fortunate.... I was probably just fortunate to actually make it there intact. But being there during album rehearsals, at Sammy's place, etc - mind blowing. Brings a grin the second I think about it!

JSTony - it could be October 5th already given access to a Wormhole Wizard : )

New World - welcome to Club Satchaholics (almost) anonymous. You joined at a great time

Dog with Crown and Earring

Time Machine

Love Thing

Echo

Ghosts ... again : )

Must learn some more songs because they're all EPIC, and great fun to figure out. You're the best Joe, no doubt

I know a lot of musicians who might suggest otherwise,but I find Adobe Audition to be a very good basic and easy to use Windows compatible program.

And Alan McKenna,you can stop laughing anytime you like now!!!

Phydeaux_3 - you see that other photo of joe load and then it gets quickly replaced by the flash version with the rotation/fade animation. people on non-flash enabled browsers will still get the still image (instead of nothing). we aim to please!

@Peace Lily- It's very awesome. But I just thought that it would be a very sad song. I didn't think it would have an awesome groove. But I do love how it sounds.

Okay everybody. I'm leaving for a week to go down the shore. I have the names of all the people who wanted to be part of the shout-outs. I will most likely not have any access to Internet for a week so don't post too many comments while I'm gone. lol Catching up is hard to do. It's like moving through a weeks worth of emotions in a couple of minutes. Ideas being thrown back and forth. Anyway, I will be recording the sunrise on the shore as I was inspired to do so by Joe. "Out Of The Sunrise" will be playing as well as another song that will not be mentioned. You'll have to wait for the video. It will be about...........ummmmmmmm...........let's say around 11 minutes OR less.

Mystical robot: even coldplay can "improvise" if I could fly...

Too soon? :)

Pip- I will be one of the January people; I'll make it to Reno at least- Unless they announce a show in Portland; then I'll have to decide whether to go to one or the other, or dip into savings a bit and get both of them. If I only get one and there is a Portland show then that's where I'll go because I really didn't care for the Silver Legacy, and Portland is a little closer for me, I believe.

I'm really keeping my fingers crossed for Dog w/ Crown and Earring. The only time I've heard it is the vid that you (Pip) posted of your performance and a very low quality version that is on youtube. I suppose one day I'll just have to shell out the money for the Japanese version of the album, but I just hate to do that for ONE track! Kind of the same situation with iTunes and Ghosts. I'm glad I have LIP to listen to it now.

It would be nice to see Joe blow the dust off some stuff that hasn't been played in a while or in some cases probably never been played live and trade it out for some of the stuff that has become kind of engraved in the set list over the years....

**EVERYONE MAKE SURE YOU UPDATE YOUR SET LIST BEFORE THE TOUR!!!!**

If 15,000 of us have Summer Song and Cool #9 on our set list, then it's a safe bet that those songs will get some pretty heavy play time..

Anyway, the first milestone is September 7th, which is the download date for the single off the album for those of us that pre-ordered the autographed copy!! And then it's off to Chickenhoe II for a few of us!! Was glad to see the traditional countdown to the album release podcasts will be happening too. An exciting few weeks lie ahead!

Man, what a great DMB show tonight! This is the best I've seen them play in the two years since Roi's death. They've changed into a different band (more of a rock band with a horn section instead of a jazz/rock band), but they're still very good.

Highlights include a killer Two Step with a drum solo that was more creative than usual and the first All Along The Watchtower DMB has played in Southern California since 2005. I love their version of that song, and it's been a LONG time since I've heard it...well worth the wait, definitely!

I also enjoyed What Would You Say tonight...Jeff (sax) and Rashawn (trumpet) really jammed it out. Boyd came in with his violin at what is usually the end of the solo section, but the other guys were still playing away so they extended everything for a few more bars. Very spontaneous and cool.

Also, it's cool to hear that you're working on their website...I think the last few versions of it have been seriously lacking, compared to some of the fan sites out there. I look forward to seeing what you do with it (And I hope you keep all of their streaming music...that's my favorite part of the site. What an easy way to make new fans!).

Back to Satch, what's the tour rehearsal schedule? Do we still have time to update our setlists here to influence Joe, or has that deadline already passed?

roo

I'm pretty sure "improvise"(Satchurized) and "plagiarize"(Coldplagiarize) have two completely different meanings!!!

G'day Joe, its Aussiergman from nowra nsw Australia, I'm sorry to hear about your mother passing away, I havent been on this site for a long time, I still listen to you sometimes..

It will be 4 years in november since my mum passed away, 3 years since I've picked up my guitar.. I feel i havent got any songs left in me, but Im concentraiting on buying a mackbook, so i can record on garage band.. I hope.. . Its been along time since I've played, I wonder if I'll remember how .. I still love listening to music , got over 12000 songs on my ipod, and I do a weekly radio show on my community fm station here at home, music will always be around i guess, but I just dont know if i can play again... my dad will be 87 this year, and im looking after him alot, almost every day at his house, doing things, soon he may have to give up his car if he doesnt pass his test, then I'll be his shofeur??(spell) I miss mum still... guess I always will

I may or may not get to see you live again Joe but you still rock mate.!!!

Chee, yer a good mama! That Chrisper's a lucky boy!

Roo, that was funny!

Did I ever mention I hate working weekends?

Happy Saturday peeps!...or Saturnight - depending on where you are...
