joe, i have been a hugh fan of yours for years and you have been a hugh influence of mine and Ican't thank you enough. I think the world of you and from what so many people say, you are one of the nicest people in the industry. I had the joy of meeting Greg bissonette some time ago in Memphis, Tn where i lived for years. i am Memphis musician and have friends who have met you as well in Memphis. I asked greg a question that i would give so much to ask you in person and to be able to sit with you one day.I asked him how you start in writing your material and how you put it all together. He told me drum machine parts but is there a method to your madness??

Again I love listening to your material and it inspires me so much and I would love to be able to sit with you one day. i currently live in Charleston, Sc and if you come to town i will be there.
