Hey, check out the band Stu Clone and I are in if you get a chance.

On the Satch cover(Devil's slide) the other guitarist (john) and myself trade leads with me going first, and in "The Riddle of Steel" he takes the first solo(clean tone) and I take the second solo(distorted, sucks).

All the tracks are from our last show.Apologies for wrong notes and such, it is live! :D

Cube-I liked your track, what I heard of it.I don't see what the criticism could be about.

What a loss for the music world.Dimebag fucking Darrell was shot and killed.

Thebob-Joe has mentioned the "Joe Pass Chord Book" in the past.I got it, and it's good, but I like Ted Greene's "Chord Chemistry" more.

Greene actually goes into how to use chords, rather than just an encyclopedia for chords.Most chord books arent that great as stand alones.it's like trying to learn english with just a dicitonary.

In fact, the last G3 I saw him do he did the original "Power Cosmic, which is probably his most difficult piece (well, its just a bunch of arpeggios, but still)

Clarky-Yeah, he DOES play it note for note live, aside for 2-3 simple songs, like Cool # 9 and stuff like that.I would prefer he just went crazy.I saw him at a clinic about half a year ago.I could hear him doing a sound check, during which he just went off during Satch Boogie.I preferred it to the ALBUM !!

Clarky-No worries man.I know Joe has said in interviews that his accuracy has gone up dramatically in the last few years or so, and the first time I saw him was when I was like 15, so take my memories of that event with a grain of salt, hehe.

I would actually say that although Joe does most of his stuff note for note, I wish he would just rip, really just play loosely and mess with the arrangements a lot.He does that here and there, but I would love to see a whole show of "never know what is gonna happen next" type stuff.For me, having seen him like, 9 times or something, I think his setlists can be a little...I dunno, safe, for me.

But then again, I gotta realize that he is playing for a lot of people, and most of them aren't as fanatical as me.I suppose for the guy seeing Joe for the first time, note for note is gonna make that person happiest.

What can ya say?

This site rules.

Ya-Yo Gak-Yeah, I think I posted that at the petrucciforum before.

I actually have always felt that Vai's stuff in that was altered, mostly because the notes sound high, like not A=440 type high.

I also have a bootleg of him playing it on the Fire Garden tour, and he sucks at it...well, he did that night.

Had fun at the show last night.The setlist was decent.

I now know that the sound is much better at the back of the room than a few feet away from the stage.It was SO LOUD.

Highlight was the tone for the rhythm section on "Time".It sounded HUGE.

Well, I was right next to a monitor, and I forgot the ear plugs, so it was my own damn fault.

Hey Mike.You still in Japan?

I just got the rest of his albums, and the DVD.Most important guitarist of the last 10 or so years.

Regarding negativity on the JSX being loud: I don't think it was the JSX that ws so loud, it was just the venue.My buddy that I went with told me that everyone sounds loud as there cu of the shape of the room, so that was probably it.That and I was 15 feet from the stage, right in front of a bunch of monitors, and I forgot my ear plugs.

Ok, Curve is kinda lame on the new Petrucci album too.He has a really interesting tone on the album, I dunno, more mid range or something.I didn't care for "lost without you" live, but his phrasing on the album is some of his best ever.

check out Joe in a French inteview playing some acoustic.He sounds Killer!

I like when the guy asks Joe to play unlike Satriani, and Joe says "No, I can only play like what I am"

I would love to jam with Joe.
