Nuno - great guitarist. Don't think van halen invented two handed tapping as some folk have stated. He maybe popularised it by using it in lots of his material. Steve hackett was using finger tapping in the seventies on tunes like 'return of the giant hogweed' yet I doubt he invented it either. Other folk were probably dabbling with it years and years before him and it went unnoticed.
Great video.. thanks for posting... I think Nuno is a better singer live than Gary... must have taken nuno a while to synch the riff for He-man while singing..
I didn't feel you were insulting him at all, it would have been your opinion if you were and that would have been cool. I saw that someone may have taken it wrong, because they gave you a thumbs down on your last comment. I gave you a thumbs up to balance it out.
I'm sorry but Eddie might have invented the technique, but Nuno puts it to better use. I am a fan of both guitar players, but I think Nuno's solos are more technically sound and more difficult to do. Nuno is amazing b/c he does it all, heavy riffs, fast, slow, he does it all.
I saw Nuno with Extreme in the summer of '08. Gave a little speech about how inspirational Eddie Van Halen was to him. Someone in the crowd shouted that EVH sucks and Nuno got pissed, yelled back about how great Van Halen was.
it doesnt matter if he was influenced by evh,pretty much every guitarist in the 1980s was,vai,satch,vitto bratta pretty,reb beach and much more were influenced by him.
I don't think that's true he, on many occasions said that if it wasn't for EVH he and many other Guitarist wouldn't be here. You can be influenced without sounding anything like them. His style is very percussive which makes him different.
i wouldnt say it makes him tottaly different. i agree yes nuno is a very different player than EVH but you can hear the influence in his playing (which isint a bad thing). In my opinion i think Eddie has a very percussive style, although I think nuno took that to a different level.
@merryrox: You do realize the drummer in this video is Kevin Figuerido, who is Extreme's current drummer? He is far from crap. He's a MONSTER on drums and I think he's perfect fit for Extreme. Crap? Really? Nuno thinks the world of KFigg and would never play with someone he thought was crap.
i love it when he grabs the camera at 5:02. he's like, "this doesnt belong here." awesome video. i think people should be aloud to videotape any nuno or extreme concert
OH MY GOD! that was IN SANE!!!!!! DAMMMMMMMMM

WOW he wasn't influenced by eddie van halen at all. I can tell because he's using an old marshall and showing off his two hand tapping.
