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.

Gilbert

Paul Gilbert has some fucking sick chops. Bruce Bouillet on Rhythm. They fucking rocked the house. Played RacerX, Mr. Big and Gilbert's solo stuff.

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.

Hello?

When are people going to wake the fuck up to what's going on in this country? It baffles me.

In other news. My little leaguers won their second game, unfortunately that means that they improve to 2 and 8. I really think they've turned a corner. Unfortunately, we play the number one team this weekend. So it's straight into the deep end for my guys.

I'm trying to teach Pandora to play country music, but only funny, upbeat country music, like Brad Paisley, or Jimmy Buffett (I fucking know Buffet isn't country music, call Pandora.com and tell them). It's not working out too well, and now I feel depressed.

Going to Joe Satriani and Eric Johnson at The Grove in Anaheim. Fucking A. I can't wait.
