Why

OMG. O ... M ... G. Why do things like this only happen when I'm not living in the US? Satch, Michael Anthony, Sammy Hagar and some guy from th Chilli Peppers are going on tour to support their album.

On Tour


OMG, how the hell did I not know about this?

Fruity

I've been playing around with some digital music tools, mostly a software sequencer called, of all things, Fruity Loops. I'm totally hooked. This sounds pretty crappy because all I did was plop down the camcorder with my amp on one side and the computer with horrible sounding little game speakers on the other. I'm on the lookout for a used mixer so that I can balance everything out and feed it straight into the camera. I'm also waiting for a 5m optical interconnect so that I can feed the computer into the stereo for those times when it needs to be, shall we say, a bit louder? :)

Hey Joe!

Boy, oh boy, was it loud. We skipped Pertrucci, well, we watched on the monitors and listened through the doors while we drank beer and ate nachos in the lobby. Satriani was, of course, incredible. He played Shalla-Bal, Potato Head, Crowd Chant, Always, Blue Dream, Cool #9, Ice 9, Satch Boogie, etc. Lots of stuff from Surfing With The Alien. Then they all played together. Foxy Lady and Purple Haze, Going Down and Some Rolling Stones Tune. The whole thing was almost 4 hours. Pretty cool.

Satch!

Mrs. STFU&GBTW and I are going to see G3 tonight at The Grove in Anaheim. Satriani, Petrucci and Gilbert. I could give a rat's ass about Petrucci, but Joe is wicked awesome live and I'm excited to see Paul Gilbert. I got 4th row seats and The Grove is sma ... errr ... intimate so maybe I'll pop a pic up here from the show.

Satch

Saw Satriani and Eric Johnson last night at The Grove in Anaheim. Wow. EJ played for about an hour, and then Satch played for over two and a half hours. It was, in a word, awesome.
