Steve Stevens... one of the most underrated guitarists and musicians today. From flamenco to rock, great player.

I'm always looking for this comment! Very true!!

[@backslash68]

Steve Stevens is not only a shredder, but he also has a signature sound i.e. you can hear a few notes and you'd recognize it's him playing

He's aged very well. His skin looks great, he sounds good too. Such a unique individual with such memorable songs. I'm glad he's still around!

Great memories of Billy Idol from the 70's & 80's especially the Rebel Yell era, finally got to see Billy and his amazing band performing for the 1st time last week in Cardiff and was blown away, he's still got that voice and stage presence every bit. Really enjoyed his newer material too, good to see that he's able to bring that alongside all the classics, if you get a chance to see him and the band, don't miss it. 👍

[@samjackson2868]

You make me wish I got tickets now, was a huge fan starting in his Gen X days but loved him more for his solo days, saw him at his only U.K. gig back in 1990 which will always be imprinted on my mind never to be forgotten. He literally was my main Idol. Wasn’t sure if going into see him presently would shatter all the ingrained awesomeness of that 90’s gig

[@desleykakoulidisgallaway3382]

We were never afraid of Billy, we loved him😍 he was awesome and had some brilliant ballads as well as the rock… timeless

Saw him in Frankfurt a few weeks ago with my girlfriend and her 8 year old daughter. She was rocking out from the first song on, that’s a sign of a great artist in my opinion. There were quite a few kids in the audience too! Billy’s a legend in my book!

I have absolutely ADORED you, Billy, from the very first time I ever saw and heard you back in the '70's/ '80's when I was young and in my teens/twenties! You and your music spoke to me and deeply touched my heart and soul. It's very hard to pick a favorite but I think, for me, it's Eyes Without a Face. I've listened to that song thousands of times. That song has such incredible, emotional depth and longing. I can really relate to the lyrics! I LOVE to analyze every word and all the notes of music and how they fit together! I'm such a huge fan. Your fans ADORE and worship you worldwide and that will live on until the day we die and beyond. Please let me know how I can join the community. Thanks so much, Sincerely, Kimberly.....

I live in the United States, only 32 years old, and I love Billy Idol's music. My aunt (r.i.p.) and mom played his music, along with other bands and solo singers from the 80's, when I was a kid. To be honest, I've always thought he was very good looking, I think he is still good looking for his age, and I truly mean that. I wish I would have known he was touring this year (2024), because I would have tried to get tickets for myself, my mom, and my 62 year old best friend if she wanted to go. (front row seats, to be exact). I hope he tours in the United States, again, within the next year so I can get tickets.

My daughter is 17 and Billy is her favorite musician. She asked for an electric guitar so she could learn to play his songs. We now have her signed up for guitar lessons and her first song she asked her guitar teacher to teach her is white wedding. She’s never showed interest in anything her entire life until now. Billy is definitely a cross generational artist. A true living legend. If he ever plays in Minneapolis we will definitely go see him. He’s still putting out great music!
