I think I speak for all of us when I say:

I never thought the day would come.

Steve thanks for that little update. We've all been waiting for some info about your work.
Hang around, we're really quite nice to strangers

.
Oh, btw, Welcome!

Well, two new VIP's. :-)
Looks like it's official.

I guess I have to go dig up my copy of "Hot Child In The City". LOL

I am so happy that Steve posted here, that is so cool. To hear the news straight from him is wonderful.

Thanks, Steve, you continue to be an inspiration to me musically, from the time I picked up the guitar after hearing Passion and Warfare to 11 years later, sitting here in rabid anticipation of your next CD or DVD release.

What an honor

Welcome to the forum!

BTW- Thanks for all the news. Some of us are eagerly awaiting the next discs for the box set.

At least twice a day for about five years I've been coming here........

I can't believe this......

Welcome Steve, I knew you'd show up.

Hi Dr. Vai
Thanks for dropping by!

Cheers for the signed stuff for Jemfest UK (and Rob Balducci things), will be in touch.

Thanks for all the updates too!

Best wishes

Dr. Simon Wilkins (!)

What an honor, Mr. Vai. Little do you know that dropping in here is much like Jesus Himself "dropping in" to earth for a quick visit with His followers. If there's any one place on the net you belong, besides your own vai.com, it is HERE

This is quite a grand moment for Jemsite. Welcome indeed is in order. Steve seems busier than ever, which'll make it harder to get him to play on our next titles

but that was an awesome post that addressed a hell of a lot of confusion on the forum.

Guess we'll see what happens on vai.com next week. Wow! That post is definitely something for the front page of jemsite...

hey glen......with all due respect to VIP's, I think that if it's true, he deserves something else than VIP status.....

sniperfrommars1 · #12 11-17-2002, 02:04 PM

Yeah like maybe a 777da man logo or something. lol

Welcome Steve. I dream of meeting you one day and just hanging out like two Long Island/Berklee guys. I've felt this way since hearing you on Howard Stern 11 years ago when P&W came out - for me, your "mystical-alien" curtain/persona came down that morning. I actually lived in Carle Place for a year not long after that (I grew up in Roslyn Hts.)

If you ever need a keyboard/guitar player that's not quite as good as Mike K., you can find me here. (I already own a Jem and a UV, so I won't have to mooch any of yours)

I can't believe it took Glen so long to respond (and the cavalier "no big deal" response that followed)...you'd think he'd be more excited than any of the rest of us - Glen's probably been waiting for this moment since jemsite.com was an anonymous IP address. Let's be honest here...Glen's probably STILL doing his laundry!

I just can't help but feel a little embarrassment that 'Himself' showed up on the same day as yesterday's complaint.com thread bitching about banner ads and **** filters.

I hope to hell he didn't read it.

One more thing...I propose "MIP" status, rather than 'VIP' status. SSV is the common thread here on this forum, thus making him not a 'Very' Important person...but the "Most Important Person".

we all think steve deserves some master grand title!!

but i think its soooo cool how humble he is about it all, and registers on the forum just like everyone else...i dont think it matters to steve about his status...

cant wait for more interaction! :P
