Two things that really stand out in my mind from 1978. I met the most perfect girl then and I think I heard Joe play in Clearwater, Florida. I listened to some fantastic music and was introduced to the guitar player, Joe. I couldn't pronounce his last name at the time, so I just smiled and said "Joe". Was Joe in Clearwater back in 1978?

I've always wondered why venues or artists don't take advantage of the situation and sell earplugs at their events for like $1/pair or even more. They would make a killing!
I'm sure if you look somewhere in the fine print or in the corner of a desk somewhere at each venue, there is probably a warning that each person should take appropriate measures to avoid hearing loss. That probably covers their butt in case someone were to try and sue them or the artist for hearing damage after the concert.
Then again, people have sued over hot coffee before- and won!
I wouldn't give up on going to see Joe, funkwood; I'd just make sure you arrange with the venue to have seats near the back or at least somewhere away from the PA, and keep the plugs in! He's too good to miss... and maybe throw in a Chickenfoot show this summer for good measure! Guaranteed good time right there.

Just thinking about the issue of loudness at Joe concerts, last time I saw Joe it didn't strike me as being excessively loud and I wasn't using ear plugs. The Who though, back in the early seventies they were fecking loud!

Scubadaz- I'm jealous! Looks sharp, HNGD!! HNG Month is probably more fitting, as I figure you'll be enjoying the newness of that for quite some time.
Pip- I'd never heard cat and cookie used together like that, so I wasn't sure what your aim was... I just clicked on the only Youtube vid with that title!
On a different subject- does anyone remember what Stu played during his bass solo in Reno '08??? Was it Going to California? All I remember is how beautiful his solo was, and I have the same exact feeling listening to him play GTC off his new record. Surely someone here remembers.... Cough-Austin-Cough.. Lol.

I am obviously new here and to this whole posting anything. I Just watched the cat cookie video, that is not right on so many different levels, funny as hell, but not right. I have been reading these post for some time now and I am surprised at the randomness here. I am pleased with the amount of intellegence and I gues that is why I did finally decide to post. The name is Dave. I got into Joe about 2 years ago. I heard of him long before that but did not understand the beauty of his music until then. Anyway, I am glad to be here.
Dave

Scube - loving your enthusiasm for the new amp. The night-before tweets were like a kid on Christmas Eve. Enjoy buddy.
Pip - no kitties in cookies please. Do you remember my entry for the JS guitar design contest by chance? Spooky similarities to your new baby huh?
My bro and sister in law played a gig last night in the city so Mr Skip and I went, with Joey2. They play Brazilian songs and flamenco. They are so good, I could listen to them for hours. Quite a few Spanish and Brazilian people in the crowd, some of whom formed a little moshpit right in front, in the first group of tables, and would get up and dance on the spot at random. Lovely night.
Joe - hope you are surviving the recording session with Sammy and gang. I look forward to the output.

Turbo - you were at Reno in 08!? Erm, given the gathering of satchlings how did our paths not cross? Austin has to be your man for the Stu related info from that night. I was in jet lag non jet lag sleep awake hell so its a bit of a blur.
DABrowning - hi. Yes, it can be a bit random, my recent posts probably contributing to that.... but that is the point of this area : )
"This section is sort of a free-for-all stream of consciousness"
As many of the regulars have already noted, fun, ups/downs, just a big ole little family really. Dive on in
Cheese - can you clarify quantity of hair ball delite (lmao) cookies, cat to cookie content, and breed of kitteh in each cookie. There needs to be some pedigree involved, given the pedigree of the guitar
Skip - are you admitting to copying someone elses (Ibanez) idea here? Shall we just change your nick to ColdSkippyPlay? ha ha
Sounds like a fun time. I guess you had to skip the tennis ;-b
Michelle - lmao but at the same time... woah. What happened to that kitteh?
Scuba - cool, cheers. Was it a good day?
GG2 - sorry to hear that
Time to (Pedal) Dance
P.S Hello 4am
