Hi joe, I started learning to play guitar in january this year. I have to say the you and steve vai are the biggest influencies in my music at this time, i remember hearing back to shalla bal for the first time in a sega mega cd advert.

I was just wondering if i could have your permission to make my own version of your surfing with the alien album. its my fav. i played midnight at a jam night last month, It was the first time i played in front of people!

obvioulsy i dont want to infringe any copyrights or make money or anything. But it would be cool if i could send you a finished version for you to listen to. and tell me what you think?

my email is Christopher@thorley4360.freeserve.co.uk
