I've been wanting to post all day but have been too busy....
Went to Best Buy as soon as they opened this morning and bought my second copy of BSAWW (with the bonus tracks)!
Both Heartbeats and Longing are great songs. I have listened to them about 30 times each and I think Longing is now somewhere near the top of my favorites list for this album. I think he nailed the feeling he was going for, and I agree this is some of his most expressive playing on this track.
JOE - PLEASE include Longing and Heartbeats in the concert setlist! They are too beautiful to exclude.
What is it about the bonus tracks? Just call them bonus tracks and I think that almost instantly makes them faves. Ghosts and Dog With Crown & Earring are good examples :)
Man, another great day in the world of Satchtopia.

Well I've listened to Wind in The Trees about 10 times and I still can't make myself like it. Sorry Joe, it just ain't my thing. Everything else is awesome though, to me at least.

I haven't opened my bonus CD yet, but I'm assuming that it doesn't contain a DVD with the un-affected LIP tracks that Webby Jon mentioned a couple months ago?
Hope all you Napa people have a wonderful time at the show tomorrow!! I should have driven down from Salem, but January is right around the corner I suppose. I'll look forward to pics and video from the show, and I'm super excited to hear what Joe plays! No way I'm waiting til January to see the setlist, and it sounds like it will be evolving as the tour goes on anyway.

I stayed away from here intentionally, so as not to see any comments regarding the new songs. Mission accomplished, I went out and bought the CD today having no clue what to expect.
I liked it, Wormhole and Wind are my faves on first listen, followed by Dream, Pyrric and Light. Hated Premonition on first listen. Rest of the album is OK. Let's see how this changes as I listen to it more - and louder.
Now I'm reading everything I missed, almost 1700 posts...u guys are killing me!! still 700+ posts to go. Very sad to see Portnoy leave DT, but also very excited on how this change will affect DT's sound.
Talk 2 u all later!

When I woke up this morning there was some music in my head. When i checked which one is was: Dream Song. Kinda fun that song entered my subconscious first. (It wasn't even among my favorites in the woken world :-)

I'm off to Napa! It's weird to think I'll be leaving there by about this time tomorrow...I'll only be spending about 16 hours total in the city, and half that time will be spent sleeping. ;-)
I'll be back with plenty of pictures and maybe a YouTube video or three.

Yeah, best buy in Canada seems to have the same problem. No CDs put out. The attitude when I asked about it was "don't know-don't care". So I asked for the manager, and when he came out (this 17 year old) I was told that they "mustn't have come in their shipment". Best Buy = freakin' gong show

Hi Joe.
I always feel very close to your music, I started playing guitar at age 13, and you have been my greatest influence, if not for you I would have listened to musicians like Jimi Hendrix, Robert Fripp, Steve Vai and others.
Now I want to retrieve the music, and I feel very close to your new album.
I do not enjoy the music now as much as I like, I have anhedonia.
I want to get the desire to play and study what I always wanted to study, and you are one of my engines.
Thanks for existing.
Alfredo

As I'm reading today's posts, I have God Is Crying playing in my head. I love how that song kicks ass! I think I've listened to this cd around 30 to 40x already. I play it at home, in my car, and over the weekend at work on my mp3 player. lol! I had it playing in the car last night, and my hubs asked if it was an old Joe cd or the new one. LOL! He said I've played it so much it's already familiar to him and he wasn't sure. lol!
It's Napa day! Have fun peeps and give Joe some lovin' for all of us!
Gotta go to Best Buy today and pick up the cd with bonus tracks. Last time I went to BB for a cd (Sully Erna - Avalon) on release day it was ridiculous. I searched everywhere, new releases, under E, and even under S for Sully & G for Godsmack - it was nowhere. I asked TWO different employees if someone worked in that department and could help me. They both called for "the guy". After another 10 minutes or so, I see this schlep walking towards me like he had nothing to do and nowhere to go. I was like...you gotta be effin kidding me! After looking where I already looked, and checking the computer to confirm they had it, he told me it wasn't out yet, and he'd have to go get it. He walked away in slo-mo, and eventually came back in slo-mo...with ONE cd in his hand. Don't effin strain yerself dude! By the time he came back to me, I wanted to take the cd out of his hand and frickin beat him with it. LOL! It took over a half hour to buy one cd ferchristsake! If I go there today, and Joe's cd isn't on the shelf on it's 2nd day of release, I really hope that same guy doesn't show up, cause mama ain't gonna be so nice this time.

Hi Joe!
I was reading your interview on MusicRadar and the following in your response totally resonated with me :
As for the tension thing, that goes hand-in-hand with not pressing too hard on the strings and fretboard. I had to use my head to talk my hand into letting go and allowing the music to just flow. Believe me, I had to work to stop tensing up my shoulders and my jaw. You have to keep reminding yourself to only use the muscles necessary to make the chordal playing happen naturally.
This goes TOTALLY hand-in-hand with the foundational concepts in Guitar Principles learning and practice method that I started following not long ago, when I started being honest with myself about my stagnating guitar skills. Jamie Andreas, the author of the book and related materials (and who I am currently taking lessons from) states more than once in the book - "All great players already know this...". And it's not like I don't trust her - but it's absolutely great to have such a direct and unambiguous confirmation of the fact from one of the guitar legends!
Other than that - you can look forward to more rambly posts from me ;o) Especially after the new CD arrives in the mail and I'll have to decide whether I'm keeping "Surfing with the Alien" as my ringtone (it's one of my faves and it gets people asking questions anytime my phone rings... free publicity!!!) or if I will have to switch to one of the songs from the new album...
Ok, I'll shut up for now...
Thanks again!!!
Stan
Listened to "Light years away" yesterday for the first time... WOW!

I kinda expected some blue text yesterday, since it's the release date, but I guess Joe is busy with the tour.
working on God is Crying right now, this song is tied with Pyrrhic Victoria for my fave. followed by premonition, dream song and wormhole wizards. But I still love the rest.
maybe its just because its new, but I think this is my favorite album.
Absolutely AMAZING Joe, you've outdone yourself yet again.
