JS Fanatic, my husband has a Honda Ace (although I love Harleys!). I doubt I could talk him into Satching it up. lol! Ahh well, I have a Satch plate on my car, so I'm good to go :) I'd love to see pictures of it when you have it done.

Mike, cool man! See you in July!! lmao!! I'll send you directions. Maybe you better start driving now. lol!

Man, they got a new dog next door. That poor girl barks from the time they leave in the morning, till they come home around 4:00. She's 6 yrs. old and they have her crated (recommended by the Humane Society where she was bought last week). This is the 4th day in a row she's barking constantly. I feel bad for the poor thing. She doesn't like being alone, so they even put the tv on for her - but she still barks. She must be exausted by 4:00. I think I'll put on my DT dvd and try to change my thoughts to ~~~ the 5 more friggin' inches of snow we're getting tonight. LOL! Happy thoughts...happy thoughts....where are my happy thoughts..... lol!

On a very sad note - Goodbye Mr Rogers. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor.......

Darren, hope your feeling better soon :)

Lyz, I'm an average 5'4" and I have a hard time at concerts seeing over those 6 footers. I'm not paying $75 bucks to look at some dudes sweaty shoulder blades. lol! Good luck with your school recital. Midnight is a very cool song :)

Do The Stu, that's pretty funny. Now we'll have ppl. saying Dude, the Stew, or Dew the Stew (a lil' Mt Dew in your cooking pot - eck!). Ya gotta do the Stu when the band gets that groove going. It's like a Stu outbreak infiltrating the crowd at a show. That little bounce thing just happens - and it cannot be stopped! lol! So being 6'3, your equivalent to a wall to us vertically challenged people. lol!

Lyz, I'm feeling taller already! LOL!!

Trutina, Satchurated is a great name, or Satch Fest - ha! whatever you name it, it should have something like Volume 1 behind it, or Roman numerals like Zeppelin used. I have the feeling there will be more than one of these puppies :)

Trutina, yeah, I like Version 1.0 better :)

My 2 cents on the cover choice -#2 WITH THE PC SCREEN IN THE BACKGROUND. I also like #4, but #2 is very fitting to the concept of this cd. Great ideas.

Jelly Man, I rule!! lmao!! I was born on the 15th :)

JS Fanatic, my husband recommends the site www.CrazyHorsePainting.com. Check it out!

Darren, mine is Aug. 15th, and don't just give subtle hints, hang pics on the fridge, use them for your desktop on your pc, go nuts! - If your going to give hints, GIVE HINTS!! lol!

Dave, nice work on the site so far. Is there any way you can set up a voting thang on the site for the titles & covers where everybody could vote ONCE (just to make it fair). Then when the time comes, you'll already have a running tab of what everyone likes. That way you won't have to scan T2J so much for little blurbs of what everyone is diggin'. Just trying to make it easier for you guys :) If my idea sucks... nevermind. LOL!!

Who took the picture of Little Richard??

McDave, I'm with ya bro! A good friend of mine went on a cruise a few weeks ago. She sent me a beautiful picture of her and her friend holding up their drinks, with the clear blue water behind them. Ahhhh man, it was beautiful....although I think my bottom lip did quiver. It was below 30 here :( LOL!! I don't like the cold, but I really don't like when it's hot-hot. At least I can breathe when it's freezing outside. lol!! Spring is comin' mon :) Hope your dad is doing well. Keep us posted.

Clarky, lol! Dude, I'm LUCKY to be tall enough to see shoulder blades! Some girls aren't so lucky...some guys are. LOL!! So now your prostituting your shoulders, huh? lmao!! Can we at least put on the G3 vid? It'll remind me of the 2nd G3 show I seen...or didn't see. LOL!

Trutina, it's always Happy Hour somewhere :) Let's be flexable! lol!

Clarky, "I am therefore a cheap ho... you name the vid... I'll provide the blockage... lol" ~ that sounds so wrong. lmao!!!

JS Clone1, You shouldn't refer to yourself as a skinhead, unless, in fact, you are a skinhead. In the US, a skinhead is a bottomfeeding hate breeder who is full of ignorance and bigotry. Are you a crome dome (shaved head), or a skinhead? BIG difference my friend. I have no tolerence for skinheads or any other kind of hate groups (does that make me a player hater? in a hate group of my own?)

Benny, as for Eminem, i think he's funny. He's making a big bank selling anger. It's obviously a big market or he wouldn't be where he is today. He's the same as, say, Matallica. They sing about what pisses them off, but their music appeals to me. They play music that expresses what you could be feeling at one time or another in your life. Eminem does the same, but he sells himself to MTV where the youngin's can get a taste of it, so they buy it, and then their parents go ballistic because of the "bad" lyrics/image (insert Marilyn Manson here). This causes a whole riff in the industry because of the "bad boy" image, and the shit sells like hotcakes. I don't hate his music, but I don't buy it either. I do think he has guts to be a white guy in a predominantly black industry. He gets props for that...yo.

Return the Emotion ~ that's a cool title. I think the emotion Joe puts into his music outranks many by miles. This cd, being a tribute to Joe, well ~ your giving back the emotion he gave to you ~ Return the Emotion.

Great job on the website DaveDom, Bill & Chris ~ and whoever else I left out.

Charma - beautiful words!

Clarky, lol! ;-)

Clarky, my deepest apologies. I know now that your attemps to help me with my blockage issues are sincere. You are a man of honor and dignity. We shall find a way, together, to work on this dilemma life has dealt me. To block, or not to block...that is the question!

McDave, glad to hear your dad is hanging tough. My mom has a bad ticker. She had a heart attack a few years ago, maybe 9 yrs., and they cleared the blockage with angioplasty (the catheter through the groin). Then she had another M.I. within 2 yrs, and they inserted a stint (sp?). Two months later she had her third M.I., and they finally did bypass surgery. It's an ugly procedure, but she's been o.k. ever since. I hope your dad does fantastic with the stints. It works miracles for some people and they never have to have a bypass . I hope your dad is one of the lucky ones. Also, now he's aware of the problem, so he'll be quicker to pay attention to any warning signs.

Ovation, " To be a "true" music lover you must love all music (except country, lol" ~~ LMAO!! I think you forgot opera. That, and country are my two least favorite kinds of music. lol! Congrats on your new guitar. You bought it from the best :) RH is a sweetheart. Of course, that would sound silly if you said it. lol!

"A lot of the songs I'm writing now are heavy in the rhythm guitar department. So the next record may be a stronger, harder, more gritty kind of thing from the guitar part of it."

Music to my ears :)

lol!

RDG, I totally agree with your take on EJ. The man can play like nobody's bidness, but on stage, he does look uncomfortable. I seen him play with G3, and he was amazing!

JBLAZE - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUUUUU!!!

Trutina, tell your dad that women think bald heads are sexy. LOL! Best wishes for a speedy recovery :)

Austin, don't forget about all the members who only signed up for a shot at backstage passes. I've never seen a post from some of those names.

Hey B, it's your boys birthday. Help him blow out the candles tomorrow...

"Cluck Baah Moo Version 1.0"

I'm gonna shimmy, shimmy, shimmy till the break of dawn YEAH!

Ha! How bout a switch up of that ol' Beastie Boy's title and make it JOE'S BOUTIQUE :) not!!

Clarky, I was just on IUMA listening to your music again. OMG dude, your version of Cryin' is incredible! I think all your songs are totally kick ass, but Cryin' has always been one of my favorite "rip your heart out" songs. Listening to Have a Cigar now. Dude...YOU ROCK!

Happy birthday crispin!!
