Hey, has anyone had any luck getting Joe's autograph on a guitar... or is that not cool if you're just in the crowd?

opticalstudio, thanks for your mail. I've been checkin out the site and cdbaby page....it's all good, but I'll have to wait until I strike lucky with a decent connection to stream some of the sample tracks. It's annoying cause I really want to hear your stuff! have either of you guys thought of putting a few mp3's up on soundclick or something? it is free, and they're downloadable!

danny k,

I didn't realize that you we're same guy as on the Satchurated Feedback CD (which I own a copy of)...then I heard Room 13....and ahhhh that's who you are!

962,

Stevee, Randall is Steven's (Optical Studio) guitar partner. Look on his site

Suzie 2000,

You're right....I thought the name sounded familiar...I was just on their site yesterday!

What city is this Christmas shopper's rudeness occurring in? Everytown USA?

Clarky,

As I told you last night, I would be listening the all your tunes today on your IUMA site listed below.

I already knew what I'm about to say, based on listening to your track on the T2j CD, and from visiting your IUMA site many times previously....you've got it all, Chops, Taste, Tone...& composition.

If your new CD does not land you a reocrd deal with Steve Vai's Favored Nations, or some other label...I'll Machen einen Buckel Sie ein Fliegender Hund! Woof!

Anybody who's not aware of how fargin' good Clarky is, and how many endless hours, days, years ( and pints) he's spent refining his craft...ought to..in my humble opinion...gives his tunes a listen.

THIS HAS BEEN A PAID ANNOUNCEMENT! lol

Really! Can't wait to hear you new CD Shredz! Tell ya what, I'll send a free one of mine...for a free one of yours! lol

Clarky's IUMA

I'd like to think I'm not so bad either...but I'm still working at it!

Is that kind of like I poop therefore I am?

Cuthbert.

Rows and columns is the correct syntax to describe a spreadsheet.

Records and Fields is the correct syntax to describe table data or snapshot SQL return data in a relational database.

Often time’s people confuse the two and try and do their back end heavy lifting with a microshit program called excel. This is like using a move next statement in a program or a select case statement instead of a "Select Distinct" SQL statement to return a record set. Structured Query Language is the syntax of the gods when dealing with relational data.

And yes I was an executive; I specialized in one to one marketing and media independence. Sharing data across platforms with file integrity and options for output. I have been published on this topic numerous times and have received many awards for pioneering color management in the digital age of advertising. I really got sick of data basing peoples buying habits just to try to selectively market some useless (sometimes harmful) shit that someone didn't need to buy in the first place. I was hired by the advertising agency for Marlboro to help increase sales by one to one marketing people based on the choices they made cashing in their Marlboro miles. Enough was enough. Today I sell healthy food and rent clean affordable housing. I feel much better about myself and my contribution to society. I miss the technical challenges. I miss the feeling of taking a concept that no one thinks can happen and making it a reality.

Earlier in one of your posts you mentioned that you are working on a side project, care to tell me a little about it?

Namm Man

Stevee- everytown England too! lol.

Everyone's just got to get that item off the shelf before someone snaps it up, and it's compketely necessary to buy 10 loaves of bread on Christmas Eve isn't it because shops won't be open again for... 36 hours....!!! Or less!

Suzie2000,

All this time...I didn't know you were an Englander!

I have not bought a single present yet myself!
