Life without the music of Joe Satriani would be a mistake - a humble opinion...although it's a very real opinion to me as your music has been as much of a force in my life as many of the most profound experiences that I have ever lived through. Sometimes it was your music that kept me going...

My question is, as I'm in the process of writing a book (several honestly) I'm wanting to include various things that I have come across that have inspired me greatly and perhaps changed my life for the better. I have been playing your music (attempting too lol) since the late 80's when I first picked up the guitar and consider you and Hendrix my most important musical influences. I am requesting your permission to note several of your songs at various times throughout my book (to allow my readers to know exactly what songs of yours I was listening to at what points in my life). What is your perferred method of obtaining permission to be allowed such an opportunity to benefit both myself as well as my (hopefully) future audience?
