Joe, any change still for a gig added for us Scandinavian fans on your European tour list? We are kind of left out of the European tour. Nearest gigs for us are an expensive trip away in central Europe and UK.

Austin - Yeah, I know the European tour is pretty much set in stone, but one can always hope eh? :-)

But hey, I can wait. I waited about 12 years to see Joe live for the first time on the EOC tour in Pori Jazz Festival in Oulu Finland. I can wait a little more to see him the second time. Hard it is though! :-)

I noticed that the full stream of Mind Storm is already there on the server, but there's just no link to it yet. What's taking so long webmaster? :-P

I second vegabond's suggestion!!

Ibztone - Joe's mainly using the Dunlop CryBaby CB-535Q. I'm not sure about the Clyde Wah though.

Listening to the broadcast now as well and I'm speechless!!! This album is absolutely amazing and I love every single note on it!! Strange Beautiful Music indeed! The name describes it perfectly!

Hey guys and gals, any of you own a JS-100? I just bought one from eBay and it should arrive any day now. Can't wait!!!! :-D

Thanks for the info and opinions Satch72 and Cyberjoe!

Satch72 - very nice JS-guitars website you have there! If you need pics of JS-90HAM let me know. I just recently grabbed some from eBay when one guy was selling one of them. Too bad I didn't have the money to buy it. It's pretty rare axe and a damn cool looking I must say. :-)

Cyberjoe - I've also thought about changing Dimarzio FRED and Paf Pro pickups on it, but first I need to hear how those Axis pickups sound. I didn't know though that you can change the Edge bridge on it. Got to think about changing that one too, but what about Lo-Pro Edge? Would it fit also? And what exactly is the difference between the Edge and Lo-Pro Edge bridges? I read that the Lo-Pro is a little less stif than the Edge, but is there any other differences than that?

Hi everybody, unfortunately Joe's not the only one who's guitar has been stolen lately. Well kind of anyway, because I got cheated after winning an eBay auction and I'd like to warn you all about a person who uses a name "lynn einziger" (name was Luke Fletcher in emails) in eBay. His location according to the auction page is "SW Missouri" and Country/Region is "United States Kansas City".

Some of you may remember me when I talked about getting a JS-100 earlier in the summer. Well I won a JS-100 auction put up by this guy on eBay and payed him 400+ $US the 1st of July and I still haven't seen the guitar. I have sent him emails but haven't got any response (it was a Hotmail address).

However, the weird thing is, that this guy does not seem to be a cheater at all. He's got only positive feedback on his feedback profile page as a seller and a buyer. On the page there's also a link to one item (old Commodore Pet computer), which an other person has bought from him and there are pics of that item where can be seen the same background as in the pics of the JS-100 (I saved all the pics of the guitar on my HDD). So at least the guy seems to actually have the items he's selling and has taken pics of them personally. Also the guy who had bought the computer from him also had given him a positive feedback, so he seems to have gotten the item he bought. I guess this guy all of a sudden started cheating? Well I don't know, but I haven't gotten my guitar. :-(

Austin - he's got 7 feedbacks, all positive. 4 of them as a buyer and 3 as a seller. Last of them is dated August 5th 2002, which was from the guy who bought the Commodore PET computer I mentioned in my last post.

Everything indeed indicated that he would be an honest guy. The auction page was well done too with many pics of the guitar included. And the way he wrote the emails he sent me after the auction had ended also gave me the impression that he would be honest. He even sent me an email after I had payed the guitar and asked if I'd like to get an insurance for it in case it gets lost in the mail. The insurance was only less than 6 bucks, so if he was a cheater that wouldn't add much to his "swag".

This doesn't make much sense to me, but it's still been exactly 2 months and 20 days since I sent him the money via Paypal and I have not received the guitar and haven't got any response to my emails, so to me he's a cheater, unless he would response to my emails and he would give me a believable explanation and deliver the guitar to me. But I'm not very hopeful anymore after this long time. I might still try to contact other people who have bought items from him but I don't think if it will help me.

Austin - I bought the guitar from the US and it was supposed to be shipped by Air Parcel Post. I know it's a slow shipping method, but 3 months is too still too much. I bought 3 other items from the US just before the guitar and they shipped in 2-3 weeks. Those were a big letters though and this is a guitar, but still I can't accept 3 months shipping time. And I can't also accept that he'd be ignoring my emails. I have sent him now 3 emails and specifically asked him to contact me.

Treme, I have never seen a good complite tab for Why, but check out this place: http://www.bravissimo.hpg.ig.com.br/tablaturas/joesatriani.htm

That'll at least get you started. :-)

I missed the chat too. Bugger. :-(

Anybody know if my question about the Sleep Walk was answered? :-)

Hey Austin, any chance you could email me the transcript as well? Thanks. :-)
