Hi Mr.Joe, I'm new to your site though I've been a BIG fan ever since you fueled my pation to smash though my first sand dunes in my first car... those were my first days of pushing the boundries. Anyway, I have somthing serious to tell you. Martin Lindhe, he has mastered that which you are missing in your "Engins of Creation". I dream fancifully of you two getting together. He has mastered the synth's "Technology Romance", and you have the "Grounding Heart" needed to complete it, subsiquently creating god-like music... ...beyond legendary. (Clasical-Tech or Neo- Clasical) Yanni wouldn't be able to touch it unless he copyed or joined you guys (I doubt it, he seems to be a loner when it comes to synths.), it would be interesting to see him add his flair for the dramatic.

Before you decide I'm crazy, check mp3.com's (use search-E.I.- one of my favorite songs) Hi-Fi plays of his album "Bassicaly", listen to the first five songs... if you're not convinced... I'll take my mind elswere...

Keep kicking ass and I'll still purchase your awesome creations... reguardless. :)

JOE SAVE JOE

(to whom it may concern, please let this post flow)

Imagen Joe as he was, long hair, care free, uncontained..

Now look at him today.

Joe what happened? Your friends run you over, bad management, loose a loved one? Your music is hurting, your loosing face, the passion that pushed the boundries is now pushing tedious social states. Your getting stuck with cheezy clubs and usless social clicks when you should be centerstage at a 500k seat, packed, concert with a mesmerizing two hour solo that could change the world.

Is this the end of your power?

... I've never been more sad. Bald, sunglasses, and tight leather? They don't mix man. It appears you've sacrificed too much for cool..or were forced to develope chicken feet and loose the light. I.E. you look like someone's man toy.

Please, I beg you, no more.

I will buy a thousand of your chicken feet records if you dump the look. (I'll probably burn them for you.)

Whatever you do, please, don't give up on your practice.

Sean B.
