Steve I have been a fan since i was well...since your flexible days...glad you are still doing whatyou do and glad you are in a great place i life...Fire it up!
Do you want to see something new? So, if you wish check out my videos and see a new style of instrumental rock: "Psychedelic instrumental rock" (just qualia). Nothing so special like Steve, but different. I hope you like.
he didn't write anything for halo 2 excpet the guitar part (i think). the rest is done by martin o'donnell, michael salvatori, and then bands like braking benjamin, hoobastank, and incubus, but mostly incubus.
I don't generally like Ibanez acoustics, but the AES20E is absolutely lovely! I was in a music store one time, and the owner said "here...try this" and handed it to me. After playing it for a lil' bit, he asked "so....whaddya' think??" I replied "I...think you're a bastard, for putting this guitar in my hands, because now I wanna' buy it!" ;-)
It amazes me how diverse and complex Mr. Vai is. I've spent the better part of a decade trying to duplicate his "style", while it sounds similar, I come nowhere near the technical ability of this genius, or as several others have referred to him as "guitar god". He is without a doubt, today's Mozart, Chopin, Beethoven, etc... a true master and in my humble opinion, the king of strings. Rock on Mr. Vai, the audience is indeed listening ;~)
Brilliant! Amazing and fun. This reminds me of old Steve Morse and the Dixie Dregs stuff. ala Leprechaun Promenade. I Love it! I've also been a big fan of Ann Marie Calhoun. She plays a beautiful as she looks. You're da man Steve!
This shows he isn't locked into a style - this DVD has strange noises (some too weird for me), bulgarian wedding music, rock/blues, greek - I think it's cool that he experiments.
Unless you push the boundaries you get bored; and old...
I would say the sound is fantastic; we can't mix up Steve Vai's playing and signature with someone else pl. I thought about butterflies, and something especially "light" while I listened to this composition. I like very much, it's formidably interesting as a music achievement!!
Ya know I have always had this fantasy of aliens coming down and that they started a war of music and we had to get one guitarist to play incomprehensible music and that it was me. Of course, if it were real, my vote would go to Steve, haha :)
i wonder why steve vai loves the occult even use occult symbolism lately ...2 opposite pyramids an the eye on the right....offcourse star of david and an eye inside.....why vai?? does demons help u in music?:D)
Electric violins always sound so awful. Just mic up real violins, please
