hey hey just got tge g3 cd.was wondering wot the deal was wid getting to see footage on da net with it?

Too many posts, so little time..................

Austin I know what you mean about the 1:1 copied CD thing but apply the 'pyramid' mentality to that and you *could* still end up with the same effect, it just isn't so readily apparent. You know one person copies for friend, friend copies for 2 others. I don't and haven't done downloads and very rarely copy CDs for other people. One of the situations where I do copy is if I know that people wouldn't be buying it anyway. I also see that as probably accounting for a lot of filesharing downloads as well. People will download something if it is free that they wouldn't actually pay for. Overall I'm against it, it has its uses but I think it is abused more and it is theft, plain and simple. Responsible users can rest easy with their own actions but actually putting something on line to be shared in the majority of cases is inexcuseable.

Clarky Hey man, I've got finesse.............. sometimes I'll wrap a towel around the pick axe handle, just to show my compassionate side...... lol ;-)

Yoda rofl @ the 0.007 comment..... :-)

Artanis I lol Ben. I loved the Blood Hound Gangs first album................. and then I'd my little cooky dance sick shit and funny with it ;-)

Kirsch LTE2 is a cracking album, but Tony Levin could have been higher in the mix on some tracks.

Okay guys, another week gone.......... I'll be checking back in on Tuesday........... have a good weekend......... and for those that are interested I pick my bike up on Monday - Hell Yeah !!!!!

Hey there, Been registered a few days but this is my first post, so I hope everyone is doing well and nice to talk to you. Oh yeah, the username doesn't reflect any ego or anything, for 'big' read 'fat'!

There was actually a point to posting this though...

A query, really. For those of you who can play 'Midnight' (Surfing With The Alien album), do any of you have the same problems with background noise on the opening section from pull-off noises? I read on a tab that trying muting helps, but how do you go about muting when you're doing that kind of tapping lick? If Joe is here, maybe the man himself could give me some advice?

To anyone who can answer that, many thanks in advance, as it would be a great help!

Also if Joe is reading, thanks for 'Tears In The Rain' (long time ago I know) as it is the only really gentle song that I like where I can still play it reasonably well on my cumbersome big bad acoustic with an action high enough for people to climb through it! Electric is good, but going acoustic always makes you feel better for it afterwards, like you've made more of an effort! Anyone else feel that way?

Looking forward to catching the G3 tour in Newcastle in June, should be great! Does anyone know if there are any plans for a solo tour as well with the new album coming out, maybe one that could involve Europe as well? Or is that just pushing it to hope Joe will do a G3, go back the States, tour there and then come all the way back again just a few months later? Would be understandable as it might not be very practical, but looking forward to June anyway!

Hey, Hey

Does anyone have a js model?????? arent they amazingly light!!!! it amazes me. they are such good instruments and they are a lot diffrent from any other ibanez ive ever played.

Hi at all ! i'm a new member so i'm gonna to present myself : i live in France (so i don't speak perfectly english ^^), i'm 16 years old, i play guitar (it's maybe the reason i like the music of Joe Satriani ^^) hmmm... what still ?? I think that you can see the rest in my profil :-). cu

Good afternoon friends!!!!!!

I`ve been sick, i guess that i did eat something bungled, sometimes happened :-(. I`m much better today :-) !!!

How are you great friends? I hope very well !!!!!!!!

Ok - this is my first post on this board...

alexandrecaetano: Glad to hear your all better bro!!.... Hope your Dad is also doing fine, and have a great weekend!! :-)

....Round 2 was great, and it is getting tougher....

It is sad that alot of great songs have to be eliminated, and this is an example.... Love Thing vs. Until We Say Goodbye.... Damn!!.... AWMAWY got another easy round, and I find myself picking the classics now over some of the newer stuff.... Only cause it deserves it!! ;-).... I hate to say it now, but I think AWMAWY will win it all.... Unless CRATS does exactly just that!! ;-)

I've just broken the E string!!! Man, that is my first broken string in short period of playing.
