Guitar Center Sessions: Joe Satriani - Q&A

[lonewolf604]

Kirk Hammock? Oh I get it, because his playing makes you sleepy :D

[evalex71]

@lonewolf604 LOL, I never quite got what the big deal with Hammett was, he always SUCKED to me

[artistwillet]

No cool lights? So the guitar is not going Vai, then? Just mess'n with you Joe... I like the JS that resembles Hendrix's Gibson Flying V... forgive me, I don't know that special models name.

[rfaraon]

"I can do this all night... and sometimes I do!"  uhauahuahuahua

[martynmcgilvray01]

this man taught kirk hammett and vai , if enybudy thinks that those 2 players are better than satriani , go to hell

[asdfcrow]

@martynmcgilvray01 satch thinks that vai is better than him

[THRASH3R666]

Such a Cool GUITAR MASTER!

[Seanbobification]

Satch is a gorilla. His arms are so hairy

[vendettav15]

for the intonation and tempo read search Pitch/Tempo Relationships - Bruce Sexauer September 2002 in google. the first result is it!

[sudhirsatriani]

joe is my god....n ll b forever

[MikeTheGuy00]

Who cares about feeling? It should be implied by their presence and passion. Nobody should need to mention 'feeling'.

Replace 'feeling' with 'passion'. Does Satriani have passion? Hell yes. You know he's dedicated. And why else does he go to all these guitar sessions? He loves what he does.

Face it; if you're on stage and you can play and make your own work, you got passion. But some people just need to express their flame and let it out some more so it's energy is shared with all around them

[dreamwever87]

Im pretty sure at 1:36 he called him Kirk hammock hahaha thats awesome

[Phishboy26]

Without Zappa none of this shit would have ever happened

[elgrande1987]

@Phishboy26 jajajaj fuck no probably with vai but joe satriani developed his own style and techniques I mean he was probably inspires but that's different then being influenced not like steve vai that his style could be tell right away that he's very influenced by zappa dont confuse things

[pesciro]

Joe is the man. Awesome, cool guy.

[enderein11]

god! hes hairy! lol

[SpiritualFraud]

Even "F"... XD

[holokhang991]

[arwah97]

[deathscythekim729]

5:04 Even "F" I know you're thinking..You can't mean "F" right?..lol But hey I don't know about the others, but I love the note "F" it's mysterious and quiet..that's why F is special..forget E's, A's, G's C's.. =)

[deathscythekim729]

You can't mean "F" right? i like the key F..it's mysterious

[steweDbass]

Man, this guy is such a great person as well as my original inspiration for picking up the guitar. Huge respect for this dude....

[proximity2006]

[proximity2006]

@LeeChavezMusic Is that all you got Bieber?

[LeeChavezMusic]

@proximity2006 Hell no cock shiner. Look man, I'm just sick and tired of people leaving comments like "hahaha, thumbs up if your the 301st viewer!" or "Justin Bieber is so gay. METAL 4 LIFE" or the most famous "28 Justin Bieber lovers hated this video". Just everyone shut the fuck up about it already. Jeeze.

[liquidbend]

If you look at joe Js the action is so low its amazing how low thw action is

[TheKirkYates]

[mandolearner]

I wonder whats more amazing? Satriani's guitar skills or his humble attitude. Look at the way he says "Those guys are scary".....Satch is amazing.

[0001onada]

does he never stop talkin'!!???

[meh54]

@0001onada True. But what he has to say is worth hearing for guitarists I think :)

[0001onada]

@meh54 true... :)

[0001onada]

@meh54 true... :)

[Songwriter4God]

I love the whammy effects...

[Nforeo1974]

Great how he responds to the 'beginner' guys who start with Vai and Petrucci. Those guys are amazing!!! I'm a big Petrucci fan....

[11slash711]

My favorite key is G

[strangerheart]

FANTASTICO! :-)

[Despond]

How can you not like Satch as a personality and player? Fantastic guy.

[TommittajaFIN]

@Despond

well it is just impossible. :D

[shot87]

Such a humble, likable guy.

[gaykiller009]

you know

[CaLKuLuZSH]

natural harmonic music theory? wtf?

[sIash90]

who's the guy who wrote the paper about intonation and tempo?

[ee68lp]

Bruce sexauer

[sIash90]

thanks!

[RediForKing]

coolest name in history!

[Inginitto]

i love you:)

but i cant count how many times he say "you know"

[powertothechord]

lol i know tons of musician that say that alot you know?

[Inginitto]

it almost seems like u feel offended?

it was nothing flaming against him.

i hear his music all day long

[Jspetree]

Vai and satch all the way!

[TheKirkYates]

Dream Theater are all really funny too

[joey55720]

the greatest guitarist in the world ,simply the best

[RedShogun13]

Lol "Kirk Hamock"

I love it.

[cowedbywisdom]

Satriani seems so humble. I wonder what the deal was this him suing gay ass coldplay? It seems like he would be above something like that.

[jackfenderrox]

If someone stole my riff id be pissed. Can let people step on you.

[pawanmhrjn]

satriani is the greatest among greatest

[xxxSoCalGuitar]

go to hell

[PaStaDawg789]

Satriani = god

[squirttilithurts]

Satch and Petrucci are my favorites :)

[TheNosnawS]

[deathscythekim729]

@squirttilithurts same here bro..I couldnt agree more

[pagehetfieldhammett]

i posted it and i was like what if i just heard it lol

[pagehetfieldhammett]

he said kirk hammick..did anyone else hear that?

[angedechue90]

Cool i can do it all night too Joe !!

[googleimages01]

wat year is this

[alleyesonme61686]

wow i like the way he talks. very informed and well spoken.

[lepimpazo]

thats pure envy... satriani rocks and he is not gay

[Gitaristsatch]

You're saying he play's with lack of emotion?? What kind of guitarist are you? You can't even play this stuff so how do you know he isn't playing with emotion?

[multiinstrumental]

i dont know if you've heard it but you might like starry night. theres not much in the way of effects and theres a great melody.

hope you enjoy it and hope it changes your opinion a little

[TheKirkYates]

bad music genre?

[moneyquickeasy]

Yes, that's what I said.

[santia1811]

how do you know, did you kissed him and everything went wrong or what

[multiinstrumental]

whether he is or isn't, does that ultimately matter?

[santia1811]

are you gay?

[multiinstrumental]

look at my profile photo and realise how much of a twat you are santia1811

have a good one

[santia1811]

dude they are horrible.......get a better one

[multiinstrumental]

dude are you just enjoying starting arguements or are you just generally a rent boy?

[santia1811]

what.... speak in spanish dude

[NotForsaken85]

ummmm fail..

[Darkvinx88]

your gay

[santia1811]

your father is gay and you fuck with him... let me tell you, that you are the result of my shit

[santia1811]

i agree with you

[liquidbend]

Joe Satrani Is the guitar king for me anyways.......He is a true talent that has so much feeling as a guitar player that its sick. What I like about Joe is he isnt a overblown ego maniac like alot of these guitar players that are anywhere near His ability. I play The JS 1000 and its an amazing instrument......makes me play so much better its not even funny.

[JesseGuitar07]

cool guitar.

[justforcomments456]

i hate you too

[mesarectifier1]

whats really bothering you is your dad's dick up your ass. Stop getting raped and get a life because you will never come close to being as good as Joe Satriani you faggot

[santia1811]

I dont even want to play as fast as joe satriani, I want to play with feeling. Fucking redneck

[mesarectifier1]

Who the fuck ever said about playing fast you stupid asshole? Joe does all of the above: Plays fast and plays with feeling. Obviously you havent heard many of his songs that have plenty of feeling and took him years to write. Stop talking shit you goddamn prick

[diazcamille]

dude ur the redneck, joe satriani is known as the 5 greatest guitarist who ever lived cause he has more feeling than any other guitarist u will ever hear now get outta here now

[diazcamille]

lol wow how immature. and for every1 reading this, b/c hes so mad at me for liking satch, he has started spammin on all of my videos. please, grow up and get a life and yes, i know everyone these days are impressed by fast playing only, but the reason satch is so freakin good is because he combines fast playing and shred style with the blues and makin his guitar just cry and just seeth with emotion. grow up man lol.

[sk8fakie]

Just to settle this hopefully check this song by Joe Satriani: Always With Me, Always With You . That song has a lot of feeling; well most of his songs have feeling. He doesn't play fast all the time. If you don't think that song has feeling then you must not have any feeling.

[HenneB]

haha you are funny!

[TheKirkYates]

who IS your favorite guitar player?

[HuberttXXX17]

definitely Michael Romeo

[wesclev83]

john 5 for sure

[MajorImpact]

You don't want to play as fast as Satriani? Was there ever any chance you could in the first place? No.

You say you want to play with feeling, and yet you haven't uploaded any videos of you playing the guitar at all. Loser.

[m0j0101]

lol, i want to meat him, i met gilbert at guitar camp in connecticut

[jonvistal]

ohhh... what you wanna do if you MEAT him? grill? heheheh.... just joking around bro.

[m0j0101]

whoops, typo

[scotpet11]

probably the only guitar player with a sense of humor.....

"I can do this all night long" HAHA

[GilmourNBucketH]

u should see his podcasts. he is such a strange and awsome character

[VanHalenRulze]

Satch is the best

[AndySan]

When it comes to mainstream guitar playing, I definitely agree. When it comes to the shred guitar scene, he's one of the most well-known. Either way, Satch is an amazing guitarist!

[MetalicBluz]

thank u for this great video!

[elecguitar]

satch!! one of the greatest EVER!!
