@ Hybes,

if your after the MP3 of Light Years Away, then you probably already have it. If you have played the song from the satriani home page, it is saved into your temporary internet files folders. It has an obscure name, on my pc it is GKdLYrn34NFr.128[1].mp3. I just copied into my music folder and renamed it, job done !

I finally preordered the Satch CD, and I don't have a presale password in my confirmation email. For everyone else who has a password, what was the subject line of your email? How late did it come, compared to the regular order confirmation email?

TheBob - Now that more tour dates are out, have you gotten an email with your password? You were asking about that a while ago...

Hangman,

Austin, my password came in the email titled "Joe Satriani Global Store Order Receipt for Order ID #........." I pre-ordered two cd's, so I got two different passwords in the same email. If I remember correctly, it was maybe only a coupla days after buying the cd's that I got my code, even though there were no west coast tour dates up at that time. I've been sitting on them, waiting to use them :)

ONE MORE WEEK!!!!

Has anyone who preordered the CD after the first round of tickets went on sale (8/23 at 10 a.m.) received a presale code? And hybes, you said you haven't gotten your MP3...did you get a presale code?

cheese101 - Thanks... I got an email with that subject just a few seconds after placing my order, but there wasn't a presale code included. And I just now got an email saying my CD has been shipped.

Argh...

If anyone else is having the same problem as me and TheBob, I found this form:

I'm not sure if it'll do any good, but it's worth a shot.

First and foremost, thanks to Joe and his management team for coming to Portland, Oregon on the Wormhole tour. I now have my meet and greet ticket secured. I haven't been this excited for a new Satriani album in years.

I am also enjoying the podcasts and introductions to the songs. It is great to see the music being created in the studio with all the different guitars used on the songs. I think I even saw the JS model with the three single coil configuration that was played during the Hendrix Experience tour. I also see that the 24 fret JS is being used as well. I will be super excited to see them closer in person during the concert in January.

Looking forward to the CD release next week!

*Braces self for barrage of shit*

The new stuff sounds very nice, well done and all that but is there anything new there? is there anything a bit 'out there'? As someone said to me 'a yard better than the 'foot' but that don't mean much. I'll wait til I get the CD to pass final judgement but so far it hasn't got my juices flowing over new and exciting stuff.

Does anyone know if the podcasts are going to be released on itunes?

Joe, Littleworth Lane is a wonderful beginning to what I hope will be many more songs done in tribute to your lovely mother. Your explanation made me cry, and made me smile.

Austin- I'm in the same boat as Tracie; my presale codes came with my order confirmation, which came just a few seconds after I completed my order for two CD's. I also have two different codes, but only plan on using one of them for the Reno show. I'd tell you to check your spam folder for anything further, but I'm sure you've already done that. The email I have came from: do-not-reply@sonymusic.com.

If you don't have any luck with Sony before the time comes, let me know.

Tracie- I checked the Portland page today; the best I can figure is that they have sold all of the tickets allotted for the pre-sale. I went all the way through the process this morning short of entering my credit card information and checking out. These tickets are moving FAST! If you're interested, I can probably buy a ticket for you and Chris for the Reno show tomorrow morning. It would be nice to sit as a group anyway. Who else is going to that show??

gotta have Joe- When did you buy your tix for the Spokane show?? Did they go on sale yesterday? I bought mine at 2 this morning and couldn't get any closer than row E (unless I wanted to sit on the right side of the stage), even those were in row B. Are you sitting in the balcony or downstairs in the orchestra?

I don't think you can do the club Joe as an upgrade if you already have a ticket. I think those packages come with a ticket to the show. I did check on the premium package for one of the Washington shows and it was $280... Cheaper than I expected. I would do it, but I'm flying up from Boise, so I've got about $300 in travel/hotel in addition to the trip.

Second week of January is gonna be a rough on for me! Fly to Spokane on the 9th for a show that night, fly back to Boise the next day and rest up for the 8 hour drive to Reno on the 13th for the show there the next day and drive back Saturday and Sunday. Joe is really bustin' these dates out!

Waiting for an email from Sony saying BSAWW has been shipped....

ZMiller- yes i did notice on one song
