gud on you mr vai i know what u mean about practice,im quite demanding on myself as well . im at a stage with my playin that if i dont have my guitar with me or im not playin i have terrible withdrawl symtoms. i know this sounds crazy but i guess one needs to experience this to understand it. love ur playin hope to one day be just as proficient or even better with my own style. cheers jd......
steve vai is a badass he is one with the guitar, watch the alien love secrets DVD using both camera angles you can see his hand movements mind blowing how smooth he is
@thisischavez -- You are exactly right. Even hating him is idiotic. Watching Vai onstage, you can't tell where the instrument ends and the man begins. At any time one or the other could disappear and the music would go on. By the time one reaches this stage of mastery, playing is breathing. At that point criticism is simply ignorance of intent. Every once in awhile those who can are the targets of those who wish they could. That's life. One just moves beyond it.
@Marco81blues. You can hate him all you want, but saying he sucks is just moronic. That guy is simply one of the most talented rock guitarists that ever played the instrument.
@Marco81blues. Dude, you are obviously not a guitarist. And that's cool. We don't need to be musicians to have a valid opinion. But Steve Vai is universally recognized, outside of you of course, as being one of the most talented and respected rock guitarists in the past few decades. That's just a fact, my friend. If you don't enjoy his music, then so be it. But saying he sucks is just silly. Period.
TSS1994, I too salute Steve. I am a Hendrix man through and through BUT like Hendrix, Steve is giving the inspiration in words and music for the next generation to pick up a guitar and take on the mantle of the guitar greats to push music and guitar even further.You can only praise any musician for doing just that. These are the people that inspire budding musicians to become the next big thing in the music world. Hats off!
Steve Vai would never ever take any drugs.... I bet if U bang him in the head with a hammer, he wouldn´t even take an Aspirin ! But U cant´stop wondering what kind of music he would be doing if he was high on weed ?!? ;)
@joesatriani1200rulez your fucking stupid. if your a fan of the statch then you should know he taught steve vai for a bit and is good friends with him. why do you think he's a cunt? cause i think YOUR the one being a fucking cunt.
@TasteForDisaster lmao yeah i am and believe it or not im a fan of vai to, not a huge fan tho, i know joe taught steve but that dosent have to do with anything, i just dont like steve's attitude he's always been one of those people that says "look at me im god"
@joesatriani1200rulez not at all, well maybe, cause i'm not him. but it looks to me like it's mainly the people's fault for thinking like that. if you watched the vid of the tour of his equipment, you'd see that he's really kinda playful, and you can't really take him seriously. the fan he always uses, and all that crap. glowing guitars. he's good at his music. but he also obviously likes playing around with his image.
@joesatriani1200rulez He's hardly like that. He's a performer. I've read in interviews, that he has spent just as much time learning how to perform, as he has learning how to play guiitar, cause when he first started playing he was very shy and awkward. A lot of his success is due to his image, but what's wrong with that? He's contributed A LOT to the music community, and he is effectively a rockstar; anyone who's a rockstar can wear whatever they want.
@skwizzgar mmhmm whatever you say, oh trust me i know what im talking about after 10 years of playing experience and also in the music industry ive met many people like him, as he said, "now im the asshole" which he is
When it came to mastering the guitar, Steve was his own Tiger Mom. Great creativity requires great discipline -practice - to dig it out into the light of day.
mister Ego thinks his music is so hard...i could name about 200 other artists that Vai could not come close.If this is hard listen to some Chick Corea
@uninspiredml Chick Corea,Allan Holdsowrth,Frank Gambale,Steve Smith,Herbie Hancock,John Coltrane,Shawn Lane,Pat Metheny,Scot Henderson,Mike Stern,Dave Weckl,Virgil Donati,Derek Sherinnien,Victor Wooten,Buddy Rich,Charlie Parker,Miles Davis,Dennis Chambers,John Scofield,John Mclaughlin,AL Di meola,Paco De Lucia,Bireli Lagrene,Michael Brecker,George Benson,Stenley Clarke,Lenny White,John Patituci,George Duke and i can go on if you want.
yeah, keep going. but you said 200 artist that steve vai couldn't come close to. you should listen to his orchestral work before judging him so harshly. he knows his theory, and how to transpose properly.
@uninspiredml Transposing is one thing player over changes is another.And i have heard his Orchestral work plus all he released.Dude i have seen this guy noodle on 2 modes for 30 years.
@AtanasovPeter except that Vai wrote for an orchestra, not just guitar music, but for the complementary ensemble as well. That is incredibly difficult, especially getting each section to understand your musical vision in rehearsal.
@MapleLeafAce to understand your musical vision?you idiot every detail of the note can be written.and about several million people write for orchestra.Harmonicly speaking his music is primitive.
@AtanasovPeter I think you didn't grasp the context in which Vai was explaining his music. It's not that he considered his music "hard" by any standards. It was getting people to play the way he wanted it which was so difficult. You can make any simple piece of music and say it's easy but if it's your creation, and you have your own interpretation of it, trying to get others into your "zone" is one heck of a challenge. It's the same for any player, musician, artist or songwriter.
He has earned the merit of offering his opinion with a certain nature of authority. He is one of the few players from the 80's that is still around producing music. If you think he takes himself too seriously, check out his video for the Jem Distortion Pedal. His head's not so swelled that he can't poke a bit of fun at himself.
@thielem your right he's not Frank Zappa ten times better transcribed his songs which kicked off his career and your right everyone doesn't have to like him but he gives them a great reason too...I see no arrogance in his stature whatsoever. Call him off putting but false accusation only turns on the accuser.
Read comments. I am not the only person here that has noted that he comes off as arrogant.
I have not and will not deny his talent. But I dont like him much based on what I have seen of him in interviews. I listen to his music and enjoy learning Vai parts. He is an incredible talent but, as I have said, I find him off putting. I dont think he is a horrible human being or anything like that. In life you you won't like everyone..that doesnt make those people bad.
You dont agree? That is fine but Vai is NOT Frank and never will be Frank. That isnt opinion that cites the law of identity which has nothing to do with opinion.
Also, please note that I am only one of many that finds his arrogance off-putting.
@ThieleM You're fucking retarded. ANYONE who has EVER worked with vai has noted how much character he possesses not only as a person, but as a guitarist. And any arrogance he supposedly exerts is well earned and certainly well justified.
'how much character he possesses'...that doesnt mean that every one has to like that character. I find the guy off putting. He is super talented, has immense chops and is a huge influence on guitar....I would never deny that.
Does he honestly expect us to believe that he rehearsed an ensemble for 12-15 hours a day for 30 days without blowing out the instrumentalists' chops or unions freaking out?
@MultiRiffer you are very right. that is a big problem, because the most of the people (talented or not) are stupid. in music, I preffer to not see much interviews or videoclips of the songs because the purity of the sound sometime is contaminated. some really good artist are really assholes. so..
@INGRAM0009 wow o.o he showed u the finger and now u lost respect for him? what the f**** r u sayin man, he's a very nice person, u dont lose respect for someone because of something so stupid.
To people who say that he is full of himself, he is not. He is a musician that knows exactly how good he is. Too many musicians these days have this hypocritical humility and are constantly searching for compliments. I much prefer an honest arrogance though he is not arrogant. hE just knows himself.
@ampedofficial I see his arrogance, and I would be too.Steve Vai is a virtuoso.He is good enough that he doesn't have look for a band,the band looks for him. Also there is a difference between someone that plays guitar,and someone that is a guitar player.Steve Vai IS a guitar player. Hell I'd be quite content to learn half of his passion and skill!! :- )

Also there is a difference between someone that plays guitar,and someone that is a guitar player.Steve Vai IS a guitar player. Hell I'd be quite content to learn half of his passion and skill!! :- )
