When Someone Requests a Stevie Vai Song

[@raymaiden958]

The beauty of improv is that no two renditions are the same. It's like a sunset you have to enjoy it in that moment.

What Steve Vai song is this then? Because this sounds nothing like any Steve Vai song I've heard before lol

[@OoogaBoog]

@@eddieruddock7014 of course not. You're trying to compare an improv to a radio edit. Ignorance is bliss right?

[@eddieruddock7014]

@@OoogaBoog The irony... I've never heard a radio edit of a Steve Vai song before, nor do I want to. I have his albums, a few dvds and I've seen him live about 6 times. The original commenter said that he played Steve Vai flawlessly but to me it sounds like no Steve Vai song that I've heard before so I asked the guy which song he thought it was... I wasn't hating on DOVYDAS. I like this stuff actually. I asked the guy a question... But I guess you can't even do that these days without upsetting someone. You're right about one thing though. Ignorance is bliss 👍🏻

[@hakonholm7841]

@@ThatBIGFatGuy I don't think money and value is what Andrea had in mind ehile typing this, rather that Dovy should not tie himself to a label or what have you, who will tell him exactly what to do, and who will control him, and ultimately squeeze every last penny they can out of him. Sure, there's a lot of labels and bigger companies that actually treat their artists well. However, this is usually not the case, and big labels have a tendency to limit artists crearive freedom greatly, and want them to produce hits for them. It's happened to so many acts out there, and it's quite frankly disgusting how they treat their artists as money making slaves, rather than actual people. Thankfully in 2021 it's a much more viable option to become successful as an independent artist, thanks to the potentially infinite exposure you can acheive through the internet. So uh. No need to be a sarcastic nimwit.

Could listen 2 him all night at a full Max.10 in my ears. Close my eyes and you sir are playing in a stadium and I am, 4 some reason, lucky enough 2 have my ticket & it's festival seating, (like it used 2 be back in my concert going days) I find myself right in front of the biggest speaker on stage left, turned up 2 max!
