I could not believe the parking situation. We drove for 45 mins looking, looking. But when we got inside (miss the first song) we were transported to another place,another time. The Satchman and BAND were clear loud and crisp. I could not believe "Andlusa", what an amazing solo. What a GREAT show. "Keep Rocking" Joe. Peace

Well I must say i was quite pleased I made the journey from Syracuse University to my first Satch experience. I saw Vai last year and enjoyed it, but Joe really brings the Energy and the Noise. Unfortunately he didn't play the Potato Head Jam (my favorite) but the John Petrucci suprise was amazing, i was wondering why the guitar tech brought out a Mesa Boogie before the encore.... Anyways I guess ill have to see him again to catch the Potatohead, although i must say i thoroughly enjoyed Revelation.

My wife and I did the meet and greet with Joe and we are so glad we did. He's such a great guy! He answered everyones questions for almost an hour! It was a thrill to talk with him and take a picture with him. I've seen Joe about 6 times and each one has been great, this one being no different. I was in the fourth row, so I had a great view. Can't wait to see him again. Thanks so much Joe........You rock!!

What a great show, i was half in the bag, but here are my highlights......being in the FIRST ROW, on Joe's side of the stage...........plenty of good pics and video.......TIME MACHINE, never expected that one!! Jeff was hittin em hard on the intro..........Stu's bass solo was incredible, I was in awe of his playing.......and Joe of course never upsets, he never missed a note nor a step. John Petrucci made his way out from Kings Park!!!!!!! wooooo...............and performed the G3 tradition Goin' Down w/ Joe and Leslie. I've never seen Joe play another guitar besides an Ibanez, he played Leslie's PRS for goin' down and leslie grabbed another. AMAZING SHOW, Perfect playing. Got a pick from Leslie's bassist, wacky hair(cut it dude), and Jeff's Stick!!!!!!! Then I drank until 7 am but that's another story all together..........................

I've seen Joe quite q few times and every time, he delivers a great show. It's great to see Stu playing with Jeff, Galen, & Joe again, mainly because I can always count on a Stu bass solo that will leave me in awe of his musical talents. Zep's "Goin' to Cali" was a BIG surprise and it was beautifully executed!!! Rock on Stu!! Hearing the classic Gems is always a treat; "Satch Boogie", "Blue Dream","Surfin", etc. To me, A super HUGE surprise is hearing "Time Machine"!!! I thought I'd never hear that LIVE but that song, even hearing it the 1st time yrs ago, really takes to the stage really good. Awesome groove, soaring melodies, dynamics brought way down,..etc,..perfect for the stage. Kudos on that choice! Also the song that sent goose-bumps everywhere was the new tune "Revelation". What a great combo of melody and chords...perfect. I have got to hear the recored vrsn of "Ghost". It sounded very erie & spooky, just in time for Halloween. Low spots:.."One Big Rush". Ok tune. Off of the "Blue Dream" cd, I think "Potato-Head Groove Thing" would have been a better choice plus be a crowd pleaser as well. Also, I got kind of used to hearing this awesome, beautiful improve at the end of "Always w/Me,..", but this time. It was nicely done, but not as magical. It would be cool to see Joe's back-drop video show develop as the tour or tours go on. some songs really take on a new life of imagery when occompanied by some visual idea. Overall, Joe was on fire. For example, when he hit the stage, he didn't let up for 5 songs!! He was determined to shred everyone there!!! I lost my breath after the 1st 6 tunes!!!...in a very good way..

Joe and the gang were AWESOME last night. Joe was incredibly gracious (as he usually is) at the Meet and Greet. Mountain sounded pretty good, but the bassist swinging his ponytail like a helicopter, started to get old.. Great Satch show with all the greats... Ice 9, Satch Boogie, Surfin, Super Collosal, Always with Me, Always with You, Cool #9, Summer Song, Crowd Chant, plus a few from the new album... sat in the 2nd row and they were LOUD, but I just had to take my ear plugs out to hear every note... simply the best... great jam at the end with leslie west.... especially when the surprise guest, John Petrucci came out to jam with Joe and Leslie...
