ASiA - Heat of the Moment (live)

[flowerdrop1]

who other than Steve Howe was in the original Asia? And who's in it during this show?

[martypetrucci]

and the winner of the most wide of the mark comment thus far on youtube goes to....

JANDERSON2000!!!!!! congratulations mate you must have worked really hard to miss the mark that badly!

[janderson2000]

@martypetrucci Sorry, child, it is you who are clueless. Guthrie is not near the level of a YES musician. He'd admit that as well because he isn't clueless. 

[rexasul]

@janderson2000 You are seriously retarded.

[gitarmats]

Guthrie!! Such an amazing guy, I met him on saturday!! :D Really nice person, and his playing is so insanley good!!

[DoctorDelaware]

Steve looks like the Crypt keeper.

[agenthelios]

@DoctorDelaware Yeah no kidding....he looks like Pumpkinhead, but he still can kick some ass!

Asia is EPIC!

[P0l084]

lol GG is better in technique it's true.

But Steve howe is a legend man, he compose music who touch all people, not only a fan base of guitarist.

See how Steve play wonderfull with an acoustic, so much emotion... GG has a metal vibrato and tremolo... .... the same of all the others metal solist lol

Let GG in a group like Yes and he will sound like Dream theater...

[tastefulphrasing]

@P0l084 Dont be offended , but Guthrie is better at every aspect of the guitar than steve. EVERY aspect. This is not opinion. Just fact haha.

[Timmonsec]

@tastefulphrasing agreed... a lot of good guitar players, a lot of fantastic players, a lot of virtuosos, alot of metal heads and so on... but Guthrie Govan stands right next to Shawn Lane as THE "best" guitar player in history...

[madgoose66]

Uhhh This isn't Asia

[20fs]

tht waz a fun nite

[davydawgdawg]

GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTHHHHH!!!!

i can't believe it i had no idea he joined asia

[musicbymax]

guthrie can play anything he wants...

[jareds1007]

That's Guthrie Govan man...don't dis Govan.

[nucleardude11]

only steve can play that solo good

[bckyrdboogie]

its funny because guthrie is the only reason i came to this page.

[nucleardude11]

he sucks

[bckyrdboogie]

FACEPALM!

How could you even say that, I have never heard someone play like him.

[nucleardude11]

bullshit, steve is way better

[bckyrdboogie]

Now, hear me out.

watch?v=ilq1j_XbEHs

watch?v=2ErrWacVEks

How does that even compare to Steve Howe?

[nucleardude11]

steve is still better

[bckyrdboogie]

I've listened to Steve Howe, and he is an ok guitarist.

I know it's not all about ability, but Guthrie could work him in just about any area of guitar playing.

He may not play your style, but he owns Steve Howe on just about every level.

[nucleardude11]

i don't care how much you say guthrie is good, i like steve

[janderson2000]

Absurd. Guthrie Govan is a shredder who writes simple songs.

Steve Howe is a musical genius who composes epic masterpieces.

Guthrie is not even close to the level of Steve's brilliance as a musician.

[IverDaBest]

@janderson2000 Nope, Guthrie makes epic mesterpieces. Not opinion, just facts.

[fperdomo]

canned backing vocal tracks!!!

[skateebee]

No... they were all singing.

[luisalonsoecheverria]

Anyone!! Will they play The Heat Goes On, Here Comes The Feeling, Wildest Dreams, Voice of America, or Don't Cry? I know it's not really there songs, but it would be great if they could perform them.

[luisalonsoecheverria]

I'm going to see them live on Friday in Agoura Hills, CA. HA! I just wonder how they'll get away without having Geoff Downes. I'm not too familiar with Erik Norlander though or Jay Schellen either.

[skateebee]

It's not the same band as the original for sure. However, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised... these are talented musicians.

[foottothenuts]

this isn't exactly asia. it is asia featuring john payne. it is a band that plays mainly songs from john payne's years with asia.

[donniegarrison]

Erik Norlander!!

[theannexrocks]

Nice to see John Payne back.

[SPECTRE1961]

To do this features in a small club,,,Good vibrations!!
