Hi everyone,

Peace- Thanks for all the reviews you've been posting.. I'm slowly working my way through them one by one, lol! Hope things pick up for you, I know that nerve pain is nothing pleasant. I've been dealing with a nerve entrapment since 2005 and there's no easy fix; I've been on some pretty hefty meds for a few years now and it all definitely changes your life.

Soooo--- I signed up for a twitter last night; mainly to follow Joe (because of the earlier announcement of the contests during the tour or something like that?). I've got no idea what I'm doing, but feel free to follow me @turbo236.

What happened to Do The Stu?? Haven't seen a post from him in a little while.

Still waiting on a response from the Sony store myself; one of the BSAWW autographed booklets was wrinkled up pretty badly when whoever packaged it closed the box top over it. Upper right corner got folded down on itself a couple times, kinda takes the value out of it, ya know?

Anyone else trying to get presale tickets for the Snoqualmie show?

The link was supposed to be active on Oct. 18, but it's the 21st now and there's no link posted.

Why did I bother to spend a few extra bucks for the CD package?

C'mon, Joe, I love ya, but this is ridiculous.

So I receive a reply from the Satriani store which is an automated regurgitation that my CD(s) supposedly shipped on 29 September, which I already knew. And nothing else.

*sigh* I know it hasn't entered the country because Aust Post said so, maybe it's coming by ship, will hang on till Tuesday and then ask for my money back.

I had bought 2. One for me and one for my brother for Christmas. Bugger. So disappointed.

turbo236 - I'm here...just busy with a few other things lately. Sometime this week I'll mark everything as "read" and be back here 100%. ;-)

And about reviews...has anyone found a well-written BAD review of BSAWW? I've heard a lot of good things, which of course is great, but I'm curious. I'm not used to the press being pretty universally positive.

The reason why American government sucks and is going nowhere. As long as we have people in office that refuse to come up with solutions and their only goal is to stop progress, we're all screwed! Think about that before you vote out of fear or anger.

"But the delays, the cloture votes, the unprecedented obstruction that has taken place in the Senate took its toll. Even if you eventually got something done, it would take so long and it would be so contentious, that it sent a message to the public that "Gosh, Obama said he was going to come in and change Washington, and it's exactly the same, it's more contentious than ever." Everything just seems to drag on — even what should be routine activities, like appointments, aren't happening. So it created an atmosphere in which a public that is already very skeptical of government, but was maybe feeling hopeful right after my election, felt deflated and sort of felt, "We're just seeing more of the same."

Thanks for reviving my hopes, Ranjack!

Cya at the show! (one way or the other...)

Do The Stu- I did read one bad review but it was not well written but he basically said Joe was a talented player but needed some one to write his songs for him AND as it made me angry I did not post it..... now I can't find it. For the most part every review I have come across has been positive although some speak in more glowing terms than others.

Turbo- That is a LONG time to suffer with nerve pain..... I've only been dealing with it for about a week and 1/2.... seems like forever. Chiropractor helped some.& the hydro_therapy massage bed was pretty awesome... :) Thanks for the follow back on twitter.......

Rhythmsteady- Thanx for the well wishes, one thing about being zonked on meds I have more time to stare at the computer and watch all the latest clips from the tour. I tried to do some work on the company books ...but then I decided that Quickbooks is not my friend right now ...LOL :

Scuba- Hope your week starts getting better.....

Chadley and Turbo Ian, I have 4 guitars at the moment...a JS10th Chromeboy, a JS20th model (not the 20S but the full on 20th), a JS700, and a Steve Vai Bad Horsie rock mirror finish Jem. The JS20th and Bad Horsie are new, never been played, never-left-the-music-store models :) The 700 and the 10th are used but are very minty :D All come with hard shell cases, the only one I had to buy one for was the JS700, the rest are originals and have all the case-candy.

I am considering selling all but the 700, might hold on to that for Chrispie one day...of course he'd love all these other guitars in his arsenal too...if I go before I can sell, they become his :)

None are at my house, for general security reasons and especially for Chrispie security reasons, LOL!!

I hate to part with any of them, but like I said....they aren't gettin any love sittin in their cases, so I'm giving serious thought to selling them to peeps who will love them :)

Meanwhile...Joe's in Scotland tomorrow....or now....prolly now, since there's a big time difference...

punkdude, dunno how heavy Puya is, but this vid sure carries a lot of T & A! lol! I have a compilation cd somewhere with a bunch of songs on it from different bands, and Puya is one of them. Maybe Oasis is one of their heaviest songs? lol! Listening to it now. My son is like...uh...dude? lol! But he doesn't not like it. lol! Oh wait - here we go! HA! I dig it when the camera bounces with it!

I'm sure someone asked for the UK set list... so here you go:

marktaylor - congrats on winning the aftershow for Birmingham. You're going to have quite a Joe week, and one helluva Saturday as if I recall you have Club Joe, then the show, and now see Joe after as well.

Few posts to catch up on, but I thought I'd share the link to some pics that I FINALLY got around to uploading.

Chickenfoot Tahoe 11 Sept 2010.
-And
Aaron Hagar and The Wabos Tahoe 11 Sept 2010.

Unfortunately, some of the pics turned out blurry and/or dark, but I couldn't bring myself to delete any more of them than I already did. Time to get a new camera!

Also, I decided to try photobucket this time rather than simply uploading them to my facebook page, so we'll see how that works.

Goodnight!

Cheese: How much would you want for the guitars?
