Little Santilli: no need for bold caps dude, we can read mixed case normal font quite well thanks. Just in case you weren't already aware, typing in all caps is the Internet equivalent of shouting.

Matt Martinez: we kinda discovered that bold thing accidentally ... have you ever seen those posts with big long bold sections? That's what happens when you don't close it properly!

Austin: "That way, you want forget stuff" I picked up on a grammatical error by you. Do I get to have your gold star now?

Could everyone shut up about this new album? Blah blah blah new album. Either that or send me one. Preferably the Japanese version with the BONUS TRACK.

At the moment, I'm 309 posts behind...

Austin, getting gold stars from the webmaster. Suck up!! lol!

Mick, No oktoberinfestin' ? Then I guess we be haffin' ta fest the other 11 months of the year. Dem leather britches are overrated anyways ;) Achtulebah! (how the hell do you spell that one? and what does it really mean?) lmao!

Tomjr, did you pay $100 for that!! I saw that on the website and thought is was so bogus to have to pay for what we should get for free. Good seats, and possibly aftershow signatures and a handshake should be part of the deal when you buy a ticket to a show. I can buy my own t-shirt if I want one. The laminant is cool, but not worth all that. $200.00 plus TM costs for 2 tix is WAY to much for me to pay unless there are multiple bands. Multiple many multiple! lol! The bullshit of all that is that I was online at 10 a.m. and all the bastards had to offer me was 31st row!! That's total bullshit and has burned my ass for any future DT shows. We had a good time, but would have enjoyed it MUCH better closer to the stage. Good thing they had screens so we could see in the back. The show was great, but I doubt I'll play that game again. Didn't even buy a t-shirt I was so disgusted. I'm sure your experience was 100x better than mine.

Bil, why start small with twins? Go for a 6-pack! lmao! As for the 15th, all it is to us is my little Scooter Pie's first birthday. Stewart will be a year old tomorrow. BYOB. lol! Tax stuff is always done before the 15th. Didn't get much of nuthin' back, but it's done. lol! If we had to write a check, we'd be doing it tomorrow too. Just for shits & giggles, on the memo line of your check write "werd to ya mutha", Then send it with a smile :)

slan, throwing spaghetti? hmmm, tell me more. This old dog could use some new tricks. lol!

little bird, tell us a bit about yourself. How old are you? Any children? What do you do for a living? I've been a Satch fan for about 9 years. I have 2 children - a girl 15 and a boy 12. I work in retail. Been married for 16 years. Satriani is my favorite musician. I've been a member of this site since maybe 1997 or '98? How's life in Russia?

Bil, panic attack in the MRI - you'll do anything for attention these daze, eh? lol! Those machines suck. I've had cat scans, but never an MRI. Breathe. Hold your breath. Breathe. I enjoyed having my head strapped to the table. That way I could look around without the paranoia of accidently moving my head. Hey, that's kinda sick, isn't it... Geez, all you're missing these days is a mamagram and you'll be good to go. LOL!!

Joeman, I got my dancing slippers on! (hey, it's after midnight!) lol!

Oh hell, I finally reached the last post! yippee!

Hey Joe,

962- Steve stevens rules, russ gave you some cool info there

jazzy boy, the fans at the promo loved hearing the classic tunes austin mentioned, they have not seen joe at all or in a long time, this was a treat for them & the new stuff was a treat for me..............

btw guys I saw joe AGAIN tonight, lol in sacramento, it was awesome

Jazzy boy don't broadly diss all republicans, alright? there are morons on both sides of the fence. don't be such a holier than thou. personally, I can't stand those pandering liberals that always say what you want to hear. thats not a knock on you, just stop believing all the hype and think for yourself. Btw: bush is my commander in chief and he's a wank. and kerry is also a freaking loser. so we lose both ways. at least bush will defend this country even if hollywood says: " it's not cool "

JS JS greetings fellow conservative voice.

I would love to see ITLIS on sony sacd

steve stevens flamenco a go go is also on dvd audio and sounds ruthless in 5.1 surround.

Hola desgraaciadamente no hablo muy bien ingles, por eso escribo en Castellano, simplemente para decir que hace mucho que no puedo ver en directo a Joe en Espaņa, pero ante la llegada del tour de g3 a Madrid estoy como loco esperando el momento, larga vida a Joe Satriani. tocala otra vez joe!!!!!!!

Hi Joe. Is an interview possible?

I run a website dedicated to free guitar lessons. One by one I am trying to do interviews with my favorite players. The theme of the interview would be philosophies regarding practice, learning, recording and songwriting. The interview would certainly be seen by thousands of aspiring players, as the site popularity is ever increasing. Please let me know if you are interested and what your terms are.

Incidentally I am working on my own cd. I am currently living in Munich and return to the states in September. I am hoping to put together a band in the Boston area, with the ultimate goal being to submit a top notch demo to Favored Nations. One step at a time, right?

Rock on,

I think the tunes I like on the new album are more than worth the price of the CD.I really, really love the title track.Its up there with Joe's finest, for me.Its just beautiful.The outro solo is perfect.

Im really anxious to hear the bonus tracks, hopefully they are more the esoteric type songs that Joe does that I love so much, as opposed to the "rocking out and having a good time" songs, which just aren't me.Weird how that works.

Ethn the title track does rule man! I can't stop listening to it. The album as a whole is ok, but that song is just rediculously cool. so is Gnaaah, even if the solo sounds like a bit of a borg sex ripoff.

I'm having a hard time with this album for some reason. it almost feels like an EP or something, instead of a full-blown record. And yeah, he does the atmospheric stuff pretty great. I could do with an album full of turkeymen and racing clouds,lol.

ocps - ha.. no worries.. C11?? C9?? who cares.. that's just adding up.. the main thing though is understanding

1 - how to spell the chord and name it

2 - what key is is derived from

because each of the three chords I listed are derived from a different key.... which is important not only for solo's etc.. but also for working out the 11th and 13th should you need them..

being in labour fukn sux and I been rippin' my fukn hair out... lmao...

So after 15 rounds it could have gone either way but in the end sheer size and weight prevailed... Clarky beats the AW16 by a knockout.. and then another knockout.. and then kicked it around the floor some.. and woke it up.. and knocked it out again....

The Raft mix number 15 is GGGOOOOOOODDDD !!!!

woooohooo.... [marching band playing.... fireworks... crowds cheering... ticker tape falling from the tops of buildings...]....
