[@fattmusiek5452]

@@VMaster1997yeah, 99% of people who have any issue with the “guitar solo’s” have no concept of how difficult pretty much anything in a Symphony X song is. The arpeggio lines and harmonies…literally…I see one guitarist.

[@LocrianDorian]

Nope, it was just an off-day, Malmsteen also plays incredibly well for how difficult his songs are and how much he moves on stage, I saw him live in London this year and he was really good. I'm not sure if you've ever played live, but it's really really difficult to be consistent. On my best days I play a Malmsteen solo, but on the worst I can fuck up even a simple lick because I just start on a bad note for any number of reasons (tiredness, lightshow, bad visibility etc) and it all goes to shit. It's important to have a backup plan in case this happens -- but there's no viable backup plan for this tapping solo. I think more people would appreciate these amazing guitarists if they ever tried playing live.

[@aymenlouhibi5775]

It happens and it doesn't mean he's out of practice. Just not at his best on that day that's all

[@Fran_Aguayo]

Ups! Michael... whats happend here?

[@Arkane1990]

His E string has got out of tune, you can notice that only when he hit it in the arpeggios it got a weird sound

I really think Micheal Romeo should get Powerball II's because the 1st generation ones are known for sounding so fat they blend in with the background of the music. They lose their power in the foreground and they are gone with rhythm. Also, Romeo completely messed up that solo. What a mess.

[@jaspergillgannon4991]

I will admit Romeo can be sloppy from time to time, but I seriously think there was something wrong with one of his strings in this performance, or it was out of tune. I've seen him nail this solo plenty of times. Petrucci is a better live player, but I think Romeo is a better composer. Personally

We can hear the garbage because it’s on a recording, but I’m sure live no one could hear he sloppy guitar playing. But also, how many of us guitarists can stand up with a shoulder strap and play as accurately or cleanly. We never stand when practicing and it makes it a different ball game.
