Great Musics! Except for the fairy Steve Vai's performance. Im a fan of Vai, and i know they all have different styles, but what the hell was that? Ruined the song a bit in my opinion.
Actually he's wearing those so he doesn't damage his hearing any further; he apparently already suffers from tinitus from not protecting his ears on stage.
Some of vai's licks didn't suit the song, however, like previous comments state that he says hes not a good blues player but he uses various metal licks within a slow blues song FTL.
Satriani does some very good blues licks there i think, as a whole song there, it was fantastic!
why does anyone disagree with you u are correct my man. listen to their version of little wing and satch is the only good solo everyone else especially malmsteen just shreds sad really.
The best I would have to say blues-wise is definately johnson(surprisingly so!). Satriani wasn't too bad either but he should really stick to metal along with vai.
yeah man how hard is it to tell Vai and Petrucci apart? One has a faggy haircut and shit on his face that looks like a gotee and the other is John Petrucci... just kiddin i love Steve vai
I love and respect all of them three guys, but lets be honest, this is ridiculous! First of all - Vai and Satch's solos and gain levels are just too high, and the sissy singing style of Eric (who i believe is one of the best guitarists in the world). It just isn't it. They all are amazing, but when they stick to what they are good at. This just isn't their territory.
Hey, I thought it was good - these guys just added their style to it. What would be ridiculous would be putting Jimmy Page on stage with them, even in his prime. I love LZ, but he doesn't compare...

Hey those 3, john petruci, Tom morello, Eric Clapton, Jerry Cantrell and maybe Kirk Hamett or Daron Malakian...oh yeah and Jimmy Page...imagine all of them on stage
i have to disagree, the G3 live with Yngwie malmsteen was not good enought because Malmsteen is the next guitarist level and dont mix as good as Jhonson, but it is not been better, Petrucci is a great guitarist and the G3 with him was cool, Malmsteen is a SHOW man and sharing stage with him is not a good idea.
U can see it at the end, he almost go away without saying goodbye, I think he got enought of that =P. BTW there is no better guitarist just different.
Petrucci works with progresive rithms and the problem could be that Vai and Satriani are less agresive, It is no a "Fan" thing of who's better, DreamTheater is a very Profesional Band, but it is diferent, petrucci with blues maybe a bad combination comparing with Jhonson, but jhonson is soft enought to mix anyone, Malmsteen and petrucci are other lvl (no necesary better or worst)
It's like inviting George Bellas or Batio, simply dont mix. G3 terrible of course, but improvisations on stage r cool
Eric very good!!!

he wears them for the same reason as paul gilbert, his ears are sensitive to loud noises and they protect his ear drums from becoming munted

both satriani and vai use too much distortion for the song they are playing. that doesn't mean they played badly.

all the others try to cram as many notes together as possible while johnson plays with finesse real music is in the space between the notes

Steve Vai describes himself as a terrible blues player. He's not really that bad, but he does lack the blues virtuosity of the other two.
