Hello and welcome to the latest SATRIANI.COM newsletter!

In this issue:

* MESSAGE FROM JOE (PLUS NEW PICTURES FROM THE STUDIO)
* TOUR UPDATE AND NEW CLUB JOE PACKAGES

I am happy to announce we are on schedule for a new CD release date of April 1st, '08, and the Joe Satriani 2008 European Tour! Follow this link http://www.satriani.com/road/ for details on tickets and Premium Packages. I have yet to decide on a four, or, five piece band... that should keep me busy for the next few months...

While I'm at it I should come up with an album title too! At the moment, John Cuniberti and I are busy mixing the new tracks at The Plant in Sausalito, and they sound amazing! Right across the hall Journey has been recording a new record as well, so, it's been a cool environment to work in; lots of creativity in the air... And, hearing Neal Schon's guitar work drifting through the door and down the hallway has been very inspiring!

Check out the photo section below for some pics of the sessions...

Hello and welcome to the first SATRIANI.COM newsletter of 2007!

Here's what you can see in this issue:

* MESSAGE FROM JOE
* G3 2007 TOUR - "CLUB JOE" & PREMIUM TICKET PACKAGES
* SATRIANI TICKET PRE-SALE INFO REMINDER
* "ONE ROBOT'S DREAM" FAN VIDEO CONTEST WINNERS

It's February, and this an email up date from yours truly Joe Satriani... Let me tell you first, that Steve Vai and I had a fine and good time playing "Super Colossal" for the Grammy Pre-Tel audience at the Grammys this past weekend. Here's a mini photo as proof:

http://www.satriani.com/gallery/0_Special_Photos/2007-grammys-IMG_1159.jpg

The Pre-Tel is where four thousand or so members gather to celebrate and give out awards for 97 of the 108 Grammy categories. These are not televised, mostly because it would make show about 7 hours long! It's low key, but, taken quite seriously, by some.

Although a good time was had by all, I did in fact not win a Grammy. Yes, for the fourteenth time! But, many fine people did, which is good.

While sitting through the three hour Grammy show I got a chance to chat with Jack White and the Raconteurs, Susan Tedeschi, Nelly and other notables. Some say they caught a glimpse of me on TV wearing my black hat. There's a funny story about that, but I'll get to that some other time...

The news on the G3 tour is that we will offer "CLUB JOE," a new meet and greet experience. "CLUB JOE" guests will receive a 60 minute Q&A and autograph session with me, a personal photograph, a guided tour of my on-stage "Guitar World' and an autographed copy of my new double DVD "Satriani Live". Plus, two lucky guests will be brought back onstage to watch the show's encore from the side of the stage!

John Petrucci, Paul Gilbert and I are really looking forward to going head to head, toe to toe and string to string all across the USA and Canada. Come on out and help us write a new chapter in G3 history!

Joe Satriani

The final remaining shows are now confirmed and we do not expect more dates to be added. That said, we are proud to announce a variety of premium ticket packages and the launch of the all-new "CLUB JOE" experience.

As reminder, we often provide links to exclusive online ticket presales for Joe's shows. This last tour we've been working very closely with the fine folks at Entourage Talent who book Joe's tours and are making great progress in bringing all of these presales to you on a regular basis. It can be a very complicated process to work with different local promoters for each show, but we've been updating SATRIANI.COM with updated information on a daily basis, so we hope regular visitors have been appreciating these efforts.

So, keep this in mind for the future and check the site regularly if you are interested in picking up advance tickets for future shows. Since the leadtime is often not enough time to send out email blasts, checking the web site is the best way to be sure you catch them.

We also have plans to do more targeted emails to members who are signed up to this newsletter so that instead of filling up everyone's email all around the world with details on a single city's presale information, we only let you know based on the city/state/zip information in your profile. If you'd like to get immediate notice of Internet pre-sales direct to your email, please take a moment to update your member profile with accurate information. We're hoping to start this for the next major tour, so do it now! :}

Here's what you can see in this issue:

* MESSAGE FROM JOE
* VIDEO CONTEST FINAL VOTING
* G3 2007 TOUR (SATCH, PETRUCCI, GILBERT)
* NEW JSX MINI-COLOSSAL GUITAR AMP (+ CONTEST)

After two amazing G3's in Mexico, South America and Australia, Christmas in Singapore, and New Years in SF, what better way to kick off 2007 than to announce our G3 Spring Tour with John Petrucci and Paul Gilbert!

But first, a word about NAMM; I had a great time at the Peavey booth inviting the guys from OCC to debut their Peavey Chopper with Hartley Peavey himself, followed by the debut of the new JSX Mini Colossal Amp.

The amp is really a little monster. With 5 watts of pure class A sound, a Power Sponge(master volume), fx loop, tremolo, a direct out, and a killer 8" speaker, it's the perfect little recording amp, practice amp, and all around fun amp. Check it out...

http://www.satriani.com/gear/

The next evening I helped Steve Vai celebrate his 20th anniversary with Ibanez Guitars with an all star jam at Hollywood's Key Club on Sunset. At the end of the night Steve and his band were joined by Paul Gilbert, Andy Timmons, Herman Li(Dragonforce), Matt Roberts(3 Doors Down) and yours truly for a great and thunderous jam.

And, yes, Paul Gilbert is joining us for his first full G3 tour! Paul has been a frequent guest of our shows over the years and I'm happy to announce he'll be bringing his amazing guitar work on tour with us this year. His new solo CD "Get Out of My Yard is awesome... Go get it!

http://www.paulgilbert.com/

I'm currently working on new art work for my Planet Waves strap and pick line, a new JS guitar with Ibanez for next year, and new effects pedal line with Vox...oh, yes and practicing for G3 of course!

Joe

Change of Venue for Adelaide fans

The venue for the G3 concert in Adelaide Entertainment has been changed to the Thebarton Theatre on the same date, Wednesday December 6.
