@@roba1899 I remember when G3 launched in about 1993(?) thinking, "If I ever get the chance I've got to see these guys." I think it was Satch, Vai and EJ. FF to 2017 I buy my son and I tickets to see G3 at Northfield Park Cleveland. We were so pumped. Waited a few months and realized just a few weeks before going that my son couldn't go because he was only 20. It wasn't Vai and EJ though, it was Phil Collen and John Petrucci. Anyway, this video blew me away. You know he was just sitting there with that song in his head and thought, "You know what? I'm just going to bang this out and post it." No talk. No preamble. Just Vai having fun. What a treat

For me, the best part of him playing is watching him play. I've been watching him since I was 5 years old(turned 35 today), and it never gets old seeing the joy on his face every time he picks a guitar up.

Unpopular opinion but I love it when the bass guitar switches riffs during the solo. I just love those groovy bends and slides. Adds so much soul to the solo.

I play Bass and rarely i will hear a guitarist that that will play and i will pick parts of the riff that move you ... then musically move in and around with the guitar almost like your minds are joined. Almost like a trance state. Hear the percussive attack of his pick on the strings? I would love to ride Bass for Vai...

steve k. I’m not too sure if you’ve listened to too much more of VAIs work, theres technical work like Freak Show Excess, Bop etc, there’s soulful emotional work you bring up as with a Brandos Costumes, Lotus Feet, Tender Surrender, Creamsicle Sunset. Listen to the whole Alive in an Ultra World album there’s everything on there. Just to get you started. His personality is awesome too. But the artists you named are on too bro 🤘🏽

He's basically busting this out live when 90% of the guitar players recording albums would need dozens of takes to get it this clean. Assuming that they could even touch it to begin with. Dude is a monster. I'm still offended that he let Ralph Macchio win in that Crossroads duel.

Legend. I was lucky enough and old enough to see Steve with DLR in the late 80’s I happened to get on the elevator with him. He was so humble and appreciative of fans. He gave me 5 guitar picks that I still have to this day. One a different note, in middle school we would skip school and drop acid and listen to the entire passion and warfare album. Blue powder has always been my favorite track on the album

But then... instead of just leaving you decide to find my commment and spend time telling me how shit the video was ? Lmao 😂 What a loser. What normal people do?
