Yo, Joe! Just saw you up in Konocti! Awesome, Joe. You were so incredibly on it. Incredibly hot show, bro.
Hey, I'm a new member. I heard you mention this site during your show, so I joined. I have a favor to ask. A small favor. Very small. About the size of one of your picks. lol
During your show, I saw you toss a pick into the audience that no one saw. I was in the balcony, stage right, front row. Awesome seats. You were like in my LIVING ROOM, man! LOL Anyway, when my buddy and I stood up to go, I pointed down on the floor and told him you threw a pick there that no one picked up yet, and that I wanted to go down and get it. So we go downstairs when it's over, and my friend pushes right in front of me and grabs the pick! I couldn't believe it. He pocketed it. He didn't even know it was THERE until I TOLD him! Anyway, I just wanted to ask if you could send me one of your picks. Man, I wanted it bad. You're my favorite guitarist, hands down, bar none, and I hope to play like you one day. Any chance you could drop a pick in the mail to me? It would mean a lot.
I've got a site with some of my music on it: http://www.tetelesti.com. I've sung and played bass my whole life, but started playing lead about a year ago. I'm listening to your stuff every day. I LOVE your melodies, man. One of a kind. Original as hell.
Anyway, my address is:
Don Cobb
5929 Montecito Blvd.
Santa Rosa, CA 95409
If you find a minute to drop me a pick in the mail, I'll owe you one, Joe. ;^) Thanks. And thanks for all the awesome music you've produced too. I was SOOO disappointed I couldn't buy your new CD up and Konocti. I couldn't believe it wasn't for sale! Oh well. I'll go pick it up at the Wherehouse, I suppose.
TIA, Joe, for the pick and for any Joe Satriani logo stuff you can force yourself to send me. ;^)
Your greatest fan (no, really),
Don Cobb
