Joe Satriani's Guitar Tips

Frequently Asked Questions...

Why is Chickenfoot not really looked at?

I mean really, look at this line-up.

Sammy Hagar (vocals- Van Halen, and others)
Michael Anthony (bass- Van Halen)
Joe Satriani (guitar - Joe Satriani)
Chad Smith (Drums- Red Hot Chili Peppers)

Not to mention they really do make a great team, I mean just listen to this:

Whats up with this?
This is, of course, my opinion.
Of course, I suppose you could say Joe "lowered" himself, but think of it this way, this is kind of like a KISS experiment. A bunch of guys just having fun.
But like I said, this is my opinion, and I enjoy reading everyone else's.
D-Man- Ha, what are you gonna do, ya know? I wonder what would of happened if they let Mike Portnoy work with them instead of A7X.
KP- Ah, TCV are decent at best, and I like David Grohl and John Paul Jones.
KP- Hey now, my definiton of "decent at best" means good. Haha, no offence man. I just hold Satch at such a high pedestal I'm completley bias lol.


Best Answer...

Answer:

i think the stupid name has a lot to do with it.
Plus, in my experience, most "Supergroups" are nowhere near as innovative and great as the various groups they are assembled from.

Plus, the only member of the group i am real impressed by is Satch. Chad is good, but hardly the first drummer to jump to mind when I think of great drummers. I loathe Sammy, and as a bass player, have to say Micheal Anthony is very average at best.

The track you posted is good, but it doesn't grab me. But I also freely admit to my bias just making me very ambivalent about even listening.

About the only supergroup I can think of i really enjoy is Them Crooked Vultures.

(partly cuz I love John Paul Jones, and Dave Grohl is one of the best rock drummer out there.)

***Puh-lease..TCV has 10x the groove and listenability of that retread AOR band of misfits you are trying to pimp........ =P

**Guru.......... Lol.. no problem, I love some Satch too, jus tthat liek the other dude said, it feels like he has to play down to the level of the others, so to me it is like Satch like ( also never really cared for G3 tbh.... gimme Satch... well, playing Satch!)
