I shot the Video at Meinl Guitar Festival on June 27th, 2009.
Now it can be seen on the official Vai website, what an honor!

  • LOL if Paul Gilbert was there he would be singing haha

  • No. I actually really admire the way you can analyse why you like or dislike something based on theory. I was just offering a criticism that certain notes found intuitively often work better than "by the book" scales and appegios. Listen to Vai's early work, e.g. Stevie's Spanking -Zappa, not so linear passage scale based, with whammy bar lots of quarter tones etc, but to my ears, fantastic. Just a different perspective for you to ponder.

  • well, i would be really happy if i could play it after 5 minutes practicing, if you are that fucking good use the whammy bar like that...

  • because it was really that way.... they acorded to play the song whithout rehearsal and with very little anticipation

  • Only Steve Can Beat It!!\m/ :)

  • This just sounds like it's been thrown together in 5 minutes backstage. Disappointing....

  • me 2 m8...BUcket all da way

  • ...am Schlagzeug "Felix" ;)

  • BUCKKKKEEEETTTHHHHEEEEEAAAAAAD­DDDD owns every guitarist.. ever.. period.. he needs to do some shows with other guitarists.. a concert with bucket, gilbert, timmons, via, satriani and petrucci.. would be insane.. maybe too many guitars.. but fuck it haha... cant believe gilbert and bucket have never performed together considering bucket took some lessons from him

  • Love andys playing but guthrie govan smokes them both

  • Buckethead can hide them all under his KFC bucket and eats them for dinner ;)

  • The riff is not even made by Van Halen. The riff was written by Steve Lukather
