Climber - Here you go Click Here For My Site.
Michelle - I have to say that whenever you post, even when it is to someone else, I always read it as your sense of humour is killer!!! I mean who could think of the phrase "Forum Hagg"????!!!! There is only probably 2 others here who just get me with their humour and that is Clarky and Delfino.

Anybody know who EMF are/were? I got a phone call today about an audition for an "edgy pop group in the same style of vein as East 17, EMF, etc." I may as well do the audition, even though it's most definitely not my preferred style, but I need to know who EMF are so I can figure what kind of thing to play at the audition...
Any ideas?

bahduh, I have a daughter, who will be 16 in exactly one month (as she informed me this morning), and a son who recently turned 13. I must call my friend today and check on her. Hopefully she is rested and doing well.
Austin, they were probably in the ER till the wee hours of the morning, so I still don't know if anything was broke yet.
Aarren, thanks for the kind words! Yes, as the forum hagg, I'm sure people picture me as being in my late hundreds and bent over like a giant jumbo shrimp (damn I wish I could remember the comedian I got that from). I'm listening to your cut of CP again. It's drowning out all the political crap on t.v. quite nicely. I think I'll play it again...and again...and again. lol!
Yoda, I just put EMF in the search at www.cduniverse.com. One of the songs are "Right here, right now". Check it out.

Thanks everybody; I've come to the conclusion that EMF are/were dreadful. Nevermind - I'll still do the audition for the experience. They'll probably see me with my long(ish) hair, goatee, tattoos, and pointy Ibanez and decide that I'm not right for the part anyway. Maybe I should buy a Strat... lol

you know, I was thinking about opening a site...sorta like mp3.com only with members from the t2j community. maybe try to arrange a charting system...download counts, bio pages the whole nine yards. do you think we have enough artists on here to create our own little music community? it's all non-profit, just a way for you guys to get your names out there and what not...just a thought.

Pretty Funny
It was Saturday night and the preacher still hadn't been able to think of a sermon for the next morning. About 9:00 p.m. he finally said to his wife, "Dear, I think I've come up with the perfect sermon! I'm going to give a sermon about horseback riding!"
She said, "Don't be silly! You can't give a sermon about horseback riding!"
He replied, "Well, it's going to have to do because I've preached on just about every other subject I can think of."
The next morning as they were driving to church, she said, " can't believe that you're insisting on doing this! You know, if you're going to give that silly sermon on horseback riding, I'm just going to stay in the car during the service."
He said, "OK, then, suit yourself!", so, she stayed in the car.
Entering! church before the service, the preacher had a sudden inspiration and gave a hell-fire and brimstone sermon on SEX that just had the congregation in awe.
As the congregation filed out of the church, some of the members saw his wife sitting in the car and approached her window.
One of them said, "Wow! You just missed the best sermon your husband has ever given!"
She said, "Yeah, right! What does he know about it! He talks big but he's only tried it twice in his life! "Once before we were married and once after, and he fell off both times!

steveeet...i'm from nj myself and used to play out around here quite regularly. after the new CD is done, i will most likely be playing out quite a bit. i have 1 of 12 tracks done so far...first track took about 2 days worth of work to get in presentable quality. i'm 99% sure i will be performing @ next year's jemfest as well as i usually get the call back year to year. i should have *my* band together...last year i had throw a group of people together in less than 3 weeks to peform with me. was so incredibly hectic...
anyhow, enough with that tangent! where is your CD going to be released...independatly? i tend to find that to be the best way to do it unless you get picked up by a major label, but even then ya get screwed in the long run if you don't become a huge success...

All of you out there in the USA
I voted already today.
You need to get out there and VOTE for the candidates of your choice.
In some parts of the country, vote early and often, and make sure your dead relatives vote as well (Chicago area only).
RECAP
Vote

Matt,
Jemfest....hmmmm?
When it comes around let me know...maybe we can hookup, and do some damage? I'm using an Ibanez JS series through a JCM 800 Lead series & a JCM 1960A Marshall cab.
I'll be releasing my new CD independently...for absolute control of material & production....my website is almost up and running www.stevetrott.com, and I intend on selling my music through Taxi.com for movie soundtracks & commercials.
My musician friends tell me some of the tracks sound too Satch, and that I shouldn't use them...which to me is the greatest compliment they could give me...I really need to focus on my own Guitar voice...I'll use my Les Paul Custom more on my second release which will help to get away from Joe's great sound...
Let's keep in touch!
Stevee T.

Yeah... I like it Matt, great idea! A forum just T2J's would be great and a place to share info... sounds like something cool!
I would like to help too! I've got an idea for us to put together a show. I posed this idea to Joe but maybe we could plan a contest our selves?
Here's the idea; A "look a like contest" for those Joe clones out there that would like to win a chance to perform with him? Kind of a once in a life time chance for those to audition with Joe and the band. You must also know how to play at least 10 of Joe's songs from beginning to end, look as close as possible just like him, etc.. Kind of like a "American idol" but "Joe idol". Then you, Joe and the band choose the top 4 finalist, who would come on stage one at a time during either your opening or second half of the show, playing a little solo lead-in to you coming out and jamming with all 4 people. It would be GREAT!!! It would be kind of a G5 Joe Clone extravaganza!!! What do ya think? It's sure a dream of mine...Yeah!!! Spiz :)

stevee_t...i hear ya on that sounding like joe thing...i've been told many time to shed the influence, and i try to to some extent. the important thing though is that you stay true to yourself. i honestly write what comes naturally to me, i don't fuss about who/what i sound like...a good song is a good song no matter how you slice it...to me, if people take more than one listen to a song i've written, it's an accomplishment in it'self.
as far as my recording haha i used my guitar into my marshall mg15dfx little practice amp (yea! even the amp distortion) miced with a shure sm57...can't get ANY easier than that :)
i used to mess with a shit load of gear, but it just got to be such a pain in the ass to carry it everywhere. i had a marshall 6100 30th anniversary model that i sold off just cause i had no use for it anymore...tone was monsterous on it with my jp ds-1...but the little 15watt marshall mimicks is so nicely, it's almost impossible to tell the difference. in fact, i believe the 15watt amp is the best recording tone i have ever gotten over the years...who'd of thought?!
