Good Morning SATCH FANS

Time to get pumped up

Yeah I know we've all seen it before

but it always gets my adrenalin going......... :-)

Everyone has probably seen this too G3: Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and Steve Morse share their passion but I had not till today

Peace, that G3 vid reminds me of my favorite Joe scream I've seen yet! It's at 4:41. That's a SWEET JESUS!! moment if ever there was one! lol! Hadn't seen your G3 vid. Listened to Andelusia vid earlier, but didn't really get to watch it. It's one of my favorite songs.

So, the question of the day - how do you get off the Crystal Planet? Any suggestions?

Is there a rehab for that, or at least a nice handbook?

OY! Gilbert even plays with his feet! I never realized how many band influences were in that album, but now I hear it. Very cool!

Michelle- Definitely a sweet jesus moment every time I watch that one I find myself holding my breath cause I think the strings are gonna break... I should know better though

Now the Crystal Planet dilemma- Question could also be.... Do we really need to leave Crystal Planet? I like to spend as much time as possible there. It's much nicer on The Crystal Planet..gorgeous really ....one of my absolute favorite places. The way crap has been going in the real world lately I much prefer to stay there....

&

deep down if we're gonna be honest ....I think we all adore Joe... don't we? :)

Adore just doesn't quite cover it, but yes!

My favorite , and that's a tough one to pick because I love all of them on CP, has to be the oh so swanky Psycho Monkey. My favorite title on that album is A Piece of Liquid. Friggin brilliant! ZZ came up with that title when he was about five or six.

You're right Peace, who the hell would wanna get off Crystal Planet? lol! My goosebumps get goosebumps when I listen to this!

Rasp. Jam really takes you to another place....which I guess really is the Crystal Planet. LOL! From 6:28 to the end...good f'n Lord, man!

I love those guys! lol!

I miss seeing Stu, but Joe has had so many amazing bass players over the years, it's all good. I can't even pick a favorite bassist. They all brought their own style to the band, and were all perfect in what they did.

I much prefare it on this alternative planet ladies...I'm with you both!! As long as I can have my coffee ov corse....

Meanwhile, one of my favorite parts of that vid, chelle, starts at 5:20 when they are trading off riffs on each other and Joe breaks into Smoke on the Water...the crowd goes crazy, Steve shoves Joe aside, starts singing You Really Got Me and away they go again...so funny!! There is undeniable chemistry between Joe and Steve :)

Hiya Matt, things around here are about the same :) How's u?

Welcome back Cappy, always good to have a bit of "salty dog" around these parts, lol!!

You guys are giving me serious Joe-withdrawals with all these youtubes.... Might hafta be a Joe-marathon day to correct that :)

Last night I figured out how to leave Crystal Planet.....but its tricky ..

you gotta go thru the WormHole..

.timing has to be just right as its

a Black Swan event

& it requires a lot of help from

the WorMHole WIzards...

yep..... :-)

Cheese- Happy anniversary to your lovely Mom & Dad..68 years ...wow . Hope they have a great celebration

Michelle- Thanks for posting the CP goodness. All awake now& ready to face the day. (Was aided a bit by COFFEE too.)

Nice little mashup vid of Joe and Davy

:)

Not sure which is more disturbing, seeing the video or reading the words!

Great vid Skippy! Nice find! Also love that DK & DW are buds too!

Finally got a call from my son at college...at 11:45 p.m. as he was waiting for the bus to take him home from school. The fact that he called my cell, which was on vibrate on my desk, just might have prevented a heart attack up in here! lol! Nothing more traumatizing than the phone ringing in the middle of the night...unless somebody just had a baby. That's a fact, Jack.

Any of you animal lovers out there that haven't seen Lil' Bub yet? OH my God, she's the cutest lil' girl ever! Her website.

While I'm so totally off topic, I just need to say... eggs.

i love Starry Night ...its my- everything is gonna be alright song-.

When I hear it I can't help but think so. Had to play it several times here lately.

((hugs))

Michelle- I just read that This Guy holds office in your beautiful state.

I'm sorry...

*edit - Thanks for the hugs! :)

Peace, crazy thing is, the lazy trash that does nothing...um...do you think they even care to vote? Probably not. These well to do idiots know exactly what they're doing. It's been on their agenda along with blocking everything Obama has tried to accomplish over the past 4 years. They blatantly admit it, They are the NO Republicans and signed a pact to say NO to everything the President tried to pass. The maddening part is when they say Obama hasn't done anything...as they smugly read down the list of every gaddamn thing they successfully blocked. Their plan since day one of his presidency!! And this. And this. I've always had to show my ID before I voted, but I have a drivers license. If people can and have been using the ID that has gotten them through life all this time, WHY should they suddenly have to have something different right before a major election? Change the law AFTER the election so they have 4 years and not 6 months to get it done. My kids college ID's, and well as most college ID did not have expiration dates on them or a place for a signature. They also are well aware that the cards senior citizens and disabled people carry also don't meet their criteria. It's bullshit x 10! Voter fraud is practically non existent. The only voter fraud that's being done is by the Republican party, Ryan, and Romney! The Koch brothers are 4th & 5th on Forbes 10 wealthiest Americans list with a net of 31 BILLION dollars each. I don't begrudge anyone for having money, but i do for trying to buy this election and stack the political deck in favor of their kind.

Have you see the extended version of that video? Ooooh hell, wait till you hear it all, and I'm sure this is only a small part of the hate and ignorance he says as he sits amongst his silver spooned peers. It's his own words, and his own voice - and that don't lie folks! You want a guy in office who believes that, then you need help. Unthinkable to have 20,000 troops in Iraq (there is no draft in effect), but absolutely fabulous idea to have 20,000 young female Chinese" prisoners" make your fucking small appliances for a mere pittance, surrounded by barbed wire fences so they couldn't leave, "maybe" 10 rooms with12 girls in a room, all sharing a bathroom at the end of the hall! He thought this was just lovey as recently as 1998! What a bunch of dedicated young women they must have been! If he could only get lazy Americans to work like that, he wouldn't have to buy businesses overseas!

C'mon people!!

i am not sure what you expect republicans to do. we believe that the policies of the liberals will destroy the country eventually. so we try to stop it. just the same way the liberals would try to stop any conservative efforts. why does this bother you? i guess anyone who is well to do is an idiot. does that include rich liberals?

we don't have to show id in the people's republic of california to vote.

""Section 303(b)(2) specifies the ID requirements for voters who vote in person or by absentee ballot.

"In person" voters must show a "current and valid photo identification" or "a copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or other government document that shows the name and address of the voter."

"Absentee voters" must submit with their ballot one of the documents listed above.

The Secretary of State, in accordance with Elections Code section 14310 (e), has promulgated emergency regulations defining the documents a voter may use to prove ID to vote (see FAQ #3 --- Standards for proof of residency when proof is required by HAVA – Section 20107 of Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations). Is there any way a voter can avoid having to show ID when he or she votes?

Yes.

First, the requirement only applies to voters who have never voted in the county in a federal election. Persons who were already registered as of January 1, 2003, or who change address within the county and re-register, are not required to show ID to vote.

Second, voters who do not register to vote "by mail" are not required to show ID to vote.

Third, Section 303(b)(3) states that if the voter provides his or her driver's license number, or the last 4 digits of his or her social security number, on the form to register to vote, and the elections official can verify the number is correct, then the ID requirement does not apply.""

i think the citizens are concerned that those who get public assistance may not have a legal right to vote, but are still voting. it is very easy here in california to get a fake id, even a fake social security card. we all know which side they will vote for. i live near a sanctuary city where there are millions of illegal aliens. i have heard reports that voters in democratic districts have gone back to the polls after closing and witnessed them stuffing the ballot box. there is indeed voter fraud.

i don't know why you hate the rich so much, but hate will burn you from the inside. in this country we are all still allowed to make our own way in life. some are happy with little and others want to have more. take another look at the richest list and notice that some of them are rich liberals who give to the obama machine.

check out the links, they show how much was collected and spent by each candidate.

Is there ANYWHERE in my post where i stated I hate the rich? Anywhere??

I said I don't begrudge anyone for having money. THAT is what I said. To BUY an election with Super Pac money is bullshit, and that is what is happening. Money talks - and if you even try to tell me it doesn't, then you know nothing about how America has been working since day one! Super Pacs should be done away with on both sides! The presidency should be won by debates and speeches, not hate filled commercials and mailings full of flat out lies and half truths by whoever has the most money to saturate the airwaves. That goes for BOTH sides!

People have been voting the same way for years. Stuffing ballot boxes is a flat out bogus lie spread by haters and fear mongers to advance their party. Blame the Mexicans! Blame that blacks! How about blaming the Ftards who are spreading racist lies to scared white folk with their fear campaigns! Was the "hearing" voter fraud BALLOT STUFFING AFTER HOURS ever documented in police records? Ever documented by a newspaper whereas names of people were stated? Ever documented in any voter registration district news? Was there EVER any absolute truth to what you HEARD. probably not because it's the hate and LIES that are being spread in the FEAR TACTICS that they are using to scare the other side!

And how dare you say everyone with a fake ID and SS# is a f'n Democrat and will vote for Obama? How dare you! WHY? Are they all black? Latino? On government assistance? Guess what? How many white UPPER class R. kids get a fake ID? NONE? How many white R. people steal SS#'s? Do you also know which side they will vote for?? If you're stealing SS# and making fake ID's, are you really going to be stupid enough to even care to vote and have your name filed with the government? THAT'S NOT HOW CRIMINALS WORK! It's a FEAR TACTIC!!

Believe it or not...and this might be a secret, but their are black and Latino republicans out there. Not all of them are low life voters who only vote for a person because of the color of his skin and the advancement of their people, as has been the rhetoric of the other party.

You can't run for a political office without money. The sad part is, the money shouldn't be used for spreading hate, fear, and blatant lies. It should be used to promote the candidate on whatever they plan on doing for our country! It should be used to promote their beliefs and ideas to make this a better world, and I mean the entire planet! You can't be the POTUS if you know squat about foreign affairs and tell other countries "Hey, you're on your own! F off! We're the big bad USA and we're the best!" Um yeah, sometimes the best at being the worst!

OK, politics, Yer in my wheelhouse now.

Damn right the Rep's are trying to block the POTUS efforts, Thank God.

That piece of garbage had two years of a Dem. House and Senate and got EVERYTHING passed that he wanted. All of his Progressive/Socialist agenda.

Wanna see Romney's tax returns? I WANT TO SEE ALL OF THE FAST AND FURIOUS DOCUMENTS that the Pretender and Thief is hiding under presidential privelege. ....tax returns, a diversion from the real criminal activity.

POTUS grew up in Indonesia, a Communist country. Mom and dad, Communists. Later grew up in Hawaii, a state that most people don't know, the natives do not like the US for taking over their island. BHO hates this country.

BHO IS A CARD CARRYING MEMBER of "the New Party", a euphemism for "Socialist". Look it up. He wants redistibution of wealth, and once said something like "Whoever decided that greed was a virtue" (paraphrase)? I want to know who decided that taking what does not belong to you is a virtue.

He has stated that the Constitution is a flawed document. Oh yeah? His first and biggest lie as POTUS was "I promise to protect and defend the Constitution of the US". He's been pissing on it ever since he got in.

He is a Communist, a criminal, a traitor, and an enemy of our nation.

If you're stealing SS# and making fake ID's, are you really going to be stupid enough to even care to vote and have your name filed with the government? THAT'S NOT HOW CRIMINALS WORK! It's a FEAR TACTIC!!

they're fake ids. they don't use a real name. and yes i think some illegal aliens do vote. there was a local congressional race a few years back, don't remember exactly when but there was a town hall type meeting and the democrat running for re-election was asking for the crowd to vote for her on tuesday. one person said she couldn't vote because she didn't have 'papers'. the candidate said 'there are ways around that'. i remember that because it was taped and i heard it played. i really think that some people will commit voter fraud because they think the ends justify the means.

i don't think it is racist to expect that people who want to come here from other countries should follow the rules. it cost a lot of taxpayer money to educate their children, treat the ill, food stamps, transportation etc. way more than most of these people can possibly earn. i certainly don't want them to vote, because of course they will vote for the guy who will keep the services coming and not lift a finger to deport them. maybe you have to live here to understand the way it is.
