The publisher added 50,000 copies to the original run of 270,000 after the suit was filed " The network had argued the subtitle to Franken's book "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them" could trick some consumers into believing the book is associated with Fox The book went on sale nationally Thursday, moved up from its September rollout date because of publicity from the lawsuit Judge Rejects Fox Request on Franken Book Aug 22, 3:58 PM EST A federal judge on Friday denied Fox News Channel's request for an injunction to block humorist Al Franken's new book, whose title mocks the Fox slogan "fair and balanced The book's subtitle is "A fair and balanced look at the Right The cover features Franken standing in front of a television monitor with screens of President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, conservative pundit Ann Coulter and Fox host Bill O'Reilly S District Judge Denny Chin said Fox's claim was "wholly without merit, both factually and legally The word "Lies," in the title, appears in large print over the four screens " U The Fox lawsuit described Franken as a "C-level political commentator" who is "increasingly unfunny" and suggested he was "intoxicated or deranged" when he confronted a table of Fox personalities at a correspondents' dinner in April " Fox trademarked "fair and balanced" in 1998 Two years later, "Not of This Earth" won critical praise and an immediate fan following About five or six years into it, somebody brought up Susan Lucci and it sort of stuck," Satriani said in a phone interview Do you find it odd that you've taught some of the biggest names in the industry and they've become more of a household name than Joe Satriani? Satriani: I don't find it odd at all Where do you get the comfort to try new things? Satriani: It's probably just in my nature to be that way That would always be great Guitar Virtuoso Satriani Knows Grammys Feb 26, 2:37 PM EST Guitar virtuoso Joe Satriani knows a thing or two about Grammy nominations, but he knows nothing about winning one of the music industry's highest honors After 12 nominations and no award, he wasn't expecting to break his losing streak with this year's nomination for best rock instrumental performance for "Starry Night So I'm off on this journey to do it as many different ways as I can think of It's been with me for a long time and some very cool records have come out of that little book " 1 '" He's still winless 1987's "Surfing With the Alien" is one of the few all-instrumental albums to reach the Top 40 "Now every time Grammy time comes around, my friends start saying, `It's Susan Lucci time I just really like focusing on that He released his first all-instrumental EP, the self-titled "Joe Satriani," in 1984 So the next record may be a stronger, harder, more gritty kind of thing from the guitar part of it I want to maintain a rock 'n' roll vibe," said Satriani, when asked about his next CD After the success of Santana's Grammy-winning "Supernatural," would you consider pairing with vocalists? Satriani: I'm not quite sure it would be as artistically satisfying because I really do concentrate on development of melody and harmony 3 If the greatest achievements stopped with the teacher, we'd be in deep trouble 4 satriani It looked fun, I loved it, and I keep doing it Satriani, who was born in New York in 1956, first established himself on the San Francisco music scene during the early 1980s as a guitar instructor Record sales generally purchase you this huge artistic license to do whatever you like for the next couple of records He quickly became one of the most recognized teachers in the area, attracting students such as Metallica's Kirk Hammett, Larry LaLonde of Primus and acclaimed guitarist Steve Vai It's like me asking, `Do you know who Bill Gates' professor was?' Civilization moves forward because the students leapfrog the teacher It's in a little tattered book that seems to follow me around the world Once the elders passed away, we'd be finished So I need a lot of time and control to work on the compositions on the records The same thing happened with the guitar We can't help but notice what our next-door neighbor is doing, and you make a judgment on it What approach do you take with your students? Satriani: When you're a teacher and you see a 16-year-old Kirk Hammett sitting across from you and he wants to know what key is this in and how can I make a really cool song, you really have to surrender everything you know â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: Joe Satriani Web site: http://www 5 You hope someday they pass it on to the younger generation You think, `Would I do that? Is that fun?' Maybe it's like how I got attracted to snow-boarding Halfway through a tour promoting one record, I start to think about what I'm going to do next and I pull out the book, add to it and then review the crazy schemes I've come up with Part of me can't help but notice that some of my contemporaries, not just guitar players, have a hard time doing the same thing over five years let alone 20 years 2 Besides the Grammy-nominated "Starry Night," songs on "Strange Beautiful Music," Satriani's 11th album, include "Chords of Life" and "Seven String " "The last record had me exploring an organic rock and roll band sound with sort of hyper-melodic songs com "A lot of the songs I'm writing now are heavy in the rhythm guitar department That way things move forward and we can hope there will be a new Jimi Hendrix every generation " "Since 1988, I've gotten nominations for every record The Flaming Lips won this year for "Approaching Pavonis Mons by Balloon (Utopia Planitia)," extending Satriani's losing streak to 13 How do you choose your next project? Satriani: There are so many projects that I have written down in this book I carry around with me Even his friends have poked fun at his Grammy-less streak, comparing him to soap opera star Susan Lucci, who finally won a best-actress Daytime Emmy after losing for 18 years straight But having said that, it's difficult to shake a stick at selling 15 million records and the artistic freedom that follows that |
