Hey Joe,
We are Total Exposure Studios and we are making a Short Film/Movie and we want to use your "Crystal Planet" CD as our SoundTrack. I do not know the procedure for this, so I thought I would ask your permission to do so.
Thanks
DJ

I am sorry guys, I have to tell you this, but I am totally pissed about the new Album! Totally!! I'd like to know how you guys think about it:
I was waiting a long time for this new Album, I was so eager to get it, that I preordered the autographed CD from satriani.com to Germany.
Well that was a big mistake as I found out now. I haven't bought a CD in years and I assure you I will never every buy one again! So what happened? Well, as a big Joe-Fan I thought ordering the CD from the website paying a lot more than in the stores I would be some kind of "1st class" customer. That means to me:
1) I get the CD BEFORE or at least at the SAME TIME it is available everywhere else. Well, I got it yesterday and that is a few days late. Well, could be worse. Maybe customs have been holding it back, but the worst thing for me is:
2) Why are the bonus tracks NOT included on the authographed, preordered CD? Why? So i have to buy ANOTHER CD to get them?? What is going on here??
I paid $14.99 PLUS shipping costs of $7.99. Thats a TOTAL OF $22.98 for this CD! Thats $13 more than everywhere else. I get it later than anybody else AND I am missing 2 tracks? I really don't believe this. Please help me out and tell me this is a joke or something.
I could get over the delay, but I really can't get over the fact that they sent me the CD WITHOUT the bonus tracks for that price. No way, sorry JOE, that is NOT ok.

I am kinda annoyed Ice 9 and Satch Boogie are on the setlist. I like them but if you search it on youtube you get like a thousand videos, but if you search Souls of Distortion, you can't find a single video live. and Joe's post on the setlist said A Train Of Angels, Ceremony, Crushing Day, Love Thing and Circles but I didn't see them on the actual setlist.
-sad, dissapointed face- I was hoping to see Souls of Distortion, A Train of Angels, Crushing Day and Ceremony.
and this tour is for the new album but you left out wind in the trees, golden room, solitude, and two sides to every story.
Does Joe really start our with Hordes of Locusts? I would guarentee he would start with either Premonition or God Is Crying. and I would switch summersong with big bad moon, summersong is the perfect end to a concert.
So does Joe sing the same as he did when big bad moon was released?
And Tracie, you can buy beanies? like Joe's? i gotta bring an extra $25 Any autographed posters? I wanna collect autographs from him. I am only at 5 right now (two CDs a poster, Live in Paris DVD and my guitar) I hope to hit 100 before I die.
So Joe plays in America, then Europe, then back to America?
Cannot wait for the Chicago concert in December.

It saddens me a little to see people complaining about not getting the bonus tracks, especially the people who got autographed copies. This is not the first time there have been extra tracks made available AFTER the initial release, Joe has done this with the last few releases. It's not the end of the world. I may be mistaken but I'm pretty sure that all of the details were made abundantly clear BEFORE any of the ordering took place? (I know that I knew.)
I've seen a lot of hardcore fans ordering multiple copies and still going to the BestBuy for another or three to get their bonus tracks. I know that we're not all made of money, but most of us can afford the measly coupla bucks to download JUST the bonus tracks, and most of us now have the ability to burn our own CD's (1 for the car, 1 for the kitchen, 1 for the bedroom, etc.) so it's not all that difficult to make your own CD copy and add the bonus tracks on at the end.
Its' just that, to me, this is an extraordinary album, and to be bickering about a few tiny marketing details detracts from just appreciating the brilliant, masterful work of art that it is.
I'll quote the great comedian Steven Wright:
"You can't have everything.... where would you put it?!"

Hey Joe, greetings from Holland once again. Been following you as always and found out some interesting things. First of all: the new record of course, duhhh! haha Got it for my birthday, as well as a ticket to the Tilburg show, november 1st, ah yeah! I also saw on youtube that you went for a stroll through Tilburg on the Satchafunkilus tour, you really should do that again this tour! I will be strolling too and looking for you, I AM NOT KIDDING :-)
Also added myself to the attend show list. I didn't upload a set list of favorites, because i honestly like (and own! haha) every song you ever made :-)
Anyway, I hope i can meet you for a quick autograph/photo soon then. Sure hope you read this!!! It would mean a lot to me, seeing that I would frame the picture and hang it in my room, RESPECT haha
All the best kicking off the tour, I will be waving in front row my friend!
Rock on,
D777

Hmmm, maybe its just me, but the setlist is kinda disappointing. 10 of the songs appeared on the Live in Paris DVD and apart from the new album, I've seen Joe play the others live over the years.
I was hoping he would pull some that haven't been played before. I realise there are people that haven't seen Joe live before and want to hear this stuff, but for me, I'd rather sit at home and watch the regular songs on DVD, better view and better sound. Not so keen now on travelling up to London and all the hassle of getting there, just for half the new album and the regular songs
Oh well....rant over !

How come the NYC venue is listed as "Nokia Theater" - but the tickets I just bought for Dec. 14th show state it's going to be the "Best Buy theater"?...

I can't follow, why it saddens you. Are you a sony employee ? :-)
See, I already paid the price for more than 2 CDs... So I really do not want to buy another one. And even if I would, tell me where? There is no BestBuy over here (I hate discounters anyway, but thats an other story). So buy online? Don't tell me napster, thats US only afaik.
Don't get me wrong: I love the new album, I think its friggin awesome! But I also really like the bonus tracks, at least what I could hear from the podcast. I haven't even had the possibility to hear them in full length ... That's what saddens me.

Hangman, just stay home.
Got God Is Crying on volume 50!!!! up in here! WOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Just shakin' the dust out people, settle down! :-)
urbzz, sucks, don't it. Most of us bought the pre=ordered cd, only to find out later that aaaanother cd was being released with 2 bonus tracks. That's just bad bullshit on the record companies part to me. We all paid extra.

I could be wrong, but some songs are more challenging to play live than others. It may be an issue of what people want to hear (and like you, I've seen many of the set list stuff on DVD and would like to hear some of the more obscure stuff), but some songs really are studio works.

I miss 'Wind in the Trees' in the setlist
I hope it's included in the eurogigs
But I like 'Revelation' and 'Andalusia' stay from the PSATMOR tour
I guess the perfect setlist would mean a > 24h show. Poor Joe !!!

Fido 2.4 - Well said.
After the last two albums I decided to wait until I heard the whole of BSAWW before buying. I fully intend buying it now, I reckon it's Joes best work for some time, possibly his best period. I'm now looking into the possibility of one of my Americam friends getting the 'Best Buy' version for me and shipping it to me. I'm sure I can find a way of reimbursing them be it Paypal or some other way.

Oh! I'll play! First Joe show:
July 16/1990 - Ottawa Congress Centre
The "Dreaming In A Blue World" tour.
Simply amazing. Stu was killing. All around excellent show.
Also, about the current set, I'm with the "more BSAWW" crowd, but holy canoley! That set plays out at just under 2 hours, and Joe covers a LOT of ground.. my perfect setlist is 30 songs, and although I can dream about it, it isn't very darned likely to happen. I chopped mine into 2 sets (with a "break" for Joe), the second being almost all of BSAWW in it's entirety, but that makes (at least for me) a gigantic first set of fast & brutal tunes. *droool*
Expecting Joe to be able to put on the Superman outfit every night might be asking just a little bit too much, maybe a 1-off show to shoot a DVD or something, an "evening with Joe" big event, THAT would be something!
p.s. Wolfy.. careful riding with your hammer in your hand there buddy!
smooches,

When I heard "Black Swans..." the first time... I thought... well, it's good, but not great. But after more listening, I must say... it's awesome!!!!!!!
The BEST Satriani album since "Crystal Planet" I love the keyboard textures.... great bass playing and the wonderful guitar playing by Satch. Oh well... Jeff... where are the fills? Your drumming was better on other recordings.
Anyway... I can't stop listen to "Black Swans..." a great album!

He might not thank me for this but here goes:
Mike SB (often called Scooby Doo by me) has recently lost his father after a rather tough time of it. I reckon that any prayers and/or good vibes in the general direction of the Blackburn family can only be of help. A good fellow is Mike, I feel for you pal.
PS Mike is currently posting under a different soubriquet.
