I'm deeply saddened on the news of Jim Marshall's passing. He created the tone we all cherish in rock: Big, bold, beautiful and in your face. With every power chord, soaring melody and searing lead we will continue to salute his legacy. R.I.P. Lord of Loud, Jim Marshall.

That will indeed do the trick, M... Ginger ale ain't that popular over here though... A splash of orange does the trick
R.I.P Mr. Marshall -_-
Going to power away on the half stack tomorrow

I dont suppose anyone can enlighten me on why there are no UK G3 shows? Is it just me being stupid, or is there a specific reason? Thanks :)

Hi,
I've been a huge fan of Joe Satriani for over 20 years. Last week I went to the G3 concert at the Palais Theatre in Melbourne Australia.
I came prepared and wore ear plugs the whole time. But the sound was so loud it was too painful to stay.
I complained to the staff and they said they could not turn it down. I told them we would have to leave, as it was just too painful. They offered us seats (further from the stage) and we moved right near the back (where other people had moved to as well because of the excessively loud volume)
It's been over a week now and I can't sleep, can't work, can't concentrate because of the constant screaming in my ears of tinnitus.
I expect professionals like Joe to be considerate of the safety of his audience. The comparison that comes to my mind is that his sound engineer is like a child running around the house with a loaded gun. What ever happened to, "With great power comes great responsibility" and alike.
I don't know what I am going to do, I feel like this has destroyed my life.

I was at the Adelaide gig and i will say that Joe's set was louder than the others,a couple of times it was just a wall of noise and i couldn't work out what was being played.My ears were ringing a bit after i left but soon recovered.

Thanks to everyone who said a prayer or sent good vibes... My mom passed away shortly after midnight last night surrounded by her family. Please keep us in your prayers a little while longer.
As she was passing, a lullaby came over the hospital speaker. A fresh new baby entered the world. It made us smile.
much love
M

Breaking a string on a Floyd-rose style bridge? Guitarists know that is a problem from which the unfortunate guitarist cannot recover without a fresh axe. So Joe, what do you do? Do you have a guitar tech super-ready to hand you a knew guitar, or do you just stop and re-start? What if it comes near the end of a song? That is the one downside of using a floyd-rose guitar, huh?

JOE. I dont even know what to write... i've been waiting over six years to meet you. just to meet a musical genius in real life and thank you for your music. you are my IDOL. I bought the platinum ticket this year for adelaides show so i could meet you. But due to unexpected issues, I couldnt make it. Was gonna drive to Byron Bay to catch u at the blues festival , but found out too little too late >.< I didnt even get my first cd i bought of yours signed.... i want to get your autograph tattooed to my wrist. Is there anyway we can make this happen? ;p I dont want some copy from off the internet. If not I shall wait ever so patiently for your next arrival in AUS. Peace :))

Zinc Master- I have been wondering the same as you, and so far have found no "official" pre-orders that would offer autographs or anything special as far as that goes. I went ahead and pre-ordered mine from Amazon.com. They may very well wait until about 2 weeks out or a little less before the release date before they set up anything like that, though. I keep checking the home page every time I get on here.
Two Shay- Sorry to hear about your friend. At least it sounds as though you two ended things on positive terms, and you got to say goodbye to him. You can't ask for a whole lot more than that I suppose.
Michelle- Sorry to hear about your mother as well. I guess there isn't much anybody can do when our time comes except accept it. Sounds like she left behind a lot of people that cared deeply for her, and the grieving process has just begun.
Positive vibes and well wishes to both of you. Remember that we are always here for you guys!
Ian
