    Joe Satriani

    It's true what they say about Joe, he is God on a guitar. Just got in from his New Plymouth gig and his ability is absolutely unbelieveable, and he just totally loves performing.

    Truly brilliant concert

    A god on a guitar.

    There are more than one god in that pantheon. I'm glad you enjoyed the concert - I really had wanted to be there, but it didn't pan out.

    This concert was Satriani gold. Loved every minute of it, even if it will take a couple of days for my ears to recover.
    Glen Hughes and Vernon Reid were a pretty good listen too. Chalk one up for the old guys!

    I'm insanely jealous. Good on you for going, I'd have loved to see Satriani perform. Just have to live with my G3 DVDS......

    I'm jealous too. I love Satch. Did he play Starry Night? I that song.

    If things are going badly in our circumstances, the answer to what is happening to us outwardly is more often than not found in the mirror.

    Can't say I recall that song but he pretty much covered the same selection as on the Live in San Frasncisco album. Flying In A Blue Dream was other worldly, Surfing With The Alien, Always With Me, Always With You, The Mystical Potato Head Groove Thing - all brilliant. And Satch with both hands (and his teeth on one occasion) climbing all over the guitar, grinning like a man possessed.

    Only downside was there was only 1.5hrs of Satriani. Would have happily missed out on one or two others (like the fretless guitar thingy) and had a full 3 hour dose of the Master.

    Big ups to New Plymouth Council and Venture Taranaki for the festival, even with other sponsors it must have cost them a bomb. Take note other councils.

    Did anyone go to the Friday night concert? I wanted to see Gilbey Clarke but could only manage one concert and I really wanted my 15 year old wannabee rockstar son to see Satriani - needless to say he was, shall we say, "suitably impressed" (ie. it was about 3:00am before he was wound down enough to actually go to sleep)
