JOE,

Hi Joe just wanted to share a fun family moment with ya:

Basspedals - my kids are hooked too! Wormhole Wizards seems to be their favorite.

Heads-UP Europe! - RUSH are coming!!! Easily THE best show I saw this year, they blew me completely away. They could teach a lot of the whippersnappers a thing or two! They play something like 28 songs and the accompanying video (giant flatscreen!) is amazingly awesome! DO NOT MISS THIS SHOW! I spent $100 on merch alone! The tour program is excellent as well, be sure to buy one. Alex's amps are quite simply a masterpiece. Neil's kit is beyond gorgeous. Geddy is, well, Geddy! You'll regret it if you miss this one. Their 2 new songs (Caravan & BU2B ) are soooooo good! I can just about head-bang to BU2B, I LOVE that tune!

Hello Joe!

I'll start off by saying that I'm a huge fan, that I have been for quite some time now. You blow my mind away every time I hear your songs and I dare say that "Is there love in space?" saved me from a hard time in my life.

I've been playing guitar, trying to learn some of your songs, for five years now. What can I say? My fingers hurt, I barely hit the right notes and I lack the speed you have. But nevertheless - I love playing guitar and I feel like a hero myself when I get it right.

Your newest album brought great happiness to me, and I immediately fell in love with "Wind in the trees". The sound is flawless, raw, relaxing and... not of this planet. So my question leads down to this;

What gear should I have to somewhat replicate this wonderful sound? I ordered your "Vox Big Bad Wah" and "Vox Ice 9 Overdrive". But is there anything else that I'm missing out on? Any effects?

You inspired me to keep on fighting. You, Satch, gave me the courage to express myself in a new way, with an instrument. With music. Looking forward to see you live again. Best of wishes and keep on rocking!

WELCOME HOME JOE!!!

Im so happy to say I started school yesterday.. Im SOOO thankful and blessed to be able to get this second chance!

Sorry Donkey, not happening. Much as I would love to it's just not in the budget right now, hell my Joe ticket was a stretch. I'll count myself lucky if I can afford a shirt or two at the show. REALLY starting to look forward to it now, got my fingers crossed for the upgrade win! Will you be at the Montreal Satch show? If so we'll have to hook up for a beer or something.

smooches,

Yo Joe, this is my first time posting to reach out to you. My oldest son Andrew turned me onto your music and I have been hooked ever since and have been to many shows with my son's in Tampa Bay. The reason I am posting I am posting is my son Andrew is in the US Army stationed in Calif. in a remote base Camp Roberts, recently you jammed in the state and Andrews wife Shannon saved up the dough to treat Andrew for a anniversary gift. Shannon jumped thru hoops to get front row seats knowing you are Andrew's favorite musician and paid a huge premium to get them. Needless to say it's not like they rolling in cash as Shannon is also going to college, they had to travel about 4 hours to get to the venue, they were so pumped. Now Joe when they wet to enter into the venue, Shannon was turned away because she was not 21, she is 20 ~ they were crushed, angry and so upset after all the planning, the travel time just to be turned away. What a bummer to spend all the hard earned money for the show, gas to get there and back and never here a string stretch. It would seem to me the ticker sellers need to make this known to the buyers. I felt so disappointed for Shannon as she did so much to surprise Andrew with this gift and for their anniversary ~ they just wanted to see your show. I would be very cool if some how you could find 2.3 minutes of your day to reach out a to the Andrew with a call, text or email. As a really good dude who serves us all, paid very little my most standards in comparision to the private sector, he and Shannon deserve the respect considering the dough wasted and the heart break of this young couple, hell man they just wanted to rock like crazy. :)

I will be at your show at Ruth Eckerd Hall on 12-4-2010 with my other son Christian ( I call Binkers) to celebrate his 17th birthday (his is 12-8) and for sure he is so excited, seems like most the time I walk by his room I hear your music. This will be very special for him as he plays also and admires your skills to no end. We will be in row "T" seats 52 & 53 if you feel like throwing out a birthday kudos, a pick or just a boo ya.

Anyway we are all admirers and I / we understand the gig in Calif. is something you have no control over so no bad vibes are sent your way, I just wanted to throw it out to you.
