NEWS: Satch/Coldplay comparison video yanked
The video comparison of Coldplay’s ‘Viva La Vida’ and Joe Satriani’s ‘If I Could Fly’ has been yanked off YouTube at the request of Coldplay’s record label, who obviously wish to downplay the similarities ahead of the plagiarism case heading to court.
Maybe Coldplay will get lucky and Satch’s legal team will forget to play the two songs to the jury.

FEATURED REVIEW
MY ARTICLES ON GIBSON.COM
I write for Gibson.com, Australian Guitar, Australian Musician, Mixdown Magazine (including my instructional column, 'Unleash Your Inner Rock God,' which has been running since 2007), guitarworld.com, Tone Deaf, Beat and The Brag. I started I Heart Guitar in 2008. I've been playing guitar since I was 8 years old, and I've been writing for magazines since I was 18 (I'm 33 now). I've also worked as a guitar teacher (up to 50 students a week) and a setup tech. I live in Melbourne, Australia. You can check out my guitar playing at Reverbnation or on YouTube.

Can you believe that one?!!!
Keep checking for it. A few folks may be uploading it again. The blogosphere and web culture don’t dig that stuff. This is the kind of stuff that serious online Satch fans won’t let slide.
Here’s a fresh one. Works right now– knock on wood.

oh noes! a satriani fan stampede! all 6 of them!
6 more than Coldplay has.
I don’t think i even really hear of coldplay before all of this. That kind of elevator music is a bit too slow are boring for my taste.
GO SATCH!!!
