One thing is for sure...Steve Vai totally owns Steve Vai music. Man can that guy play. Awesome performance he nailed it! I saw this tour in New Hampshire.
First time I bought this album in 1996 and this song is my fav, all the details and sound is always on my mind for years. And I finally see live version, and it so crazy amazing
qué interpretación más espectacular, totalmente conectado con el momento y con una expresividad y entrega emocional únicas... fíjense cómo termina el tema, después de esa pifia, sonríe con una humildad en actitud de por favor perdónenme, luego lo aplauden (porque cómo no, menudo monstruo que es), y ahí de nuevo vuelve a agradecer con una sonrisa de gratitud aún más grande, y ahí se inclina y se entrega a la gente. Grande Vai, siempre mi maestro desde que comencé en la guitarra!!!!
That's amazing....So difficult to play even for Steve Vai who compose in 1985...So that's rare moment in the Passion and Warfare Anniversary Tour you can watch this.
Yeah, The Riddle is an extremly difficult song to play - even Steve Vai himself was only about 85% accurate playing it here. But I'm actually surprised he could even play it live to 85% accuracy - there's so many overdubs and reversed guitar parts in it, that trying to fit one melody part into them live is very hard to do without sounding out of place. He did well.
When a bloke suggests to me, through the medium of music at least, that we should make love - I usually make my excuses and leave. Yet there are exceptions to every rule , and this is a text book example of one such divergence. So, to underline the point, I might just make myself comfortable and see what else the night has in store for me. But in truth, I'm off shopping for sauerkraut and the devil's haemorrhoids. Vernacular for brussel sprouts. Where would Christmas dinner be without the latter? Thanx uploader, that made my day!
I wonder how he makes the low bass notes with a 6 strings for the licks at 1:35, 1:43, I would say he uses a whammy down but he doesnt seems to use a pedal at that moment.
A message from the young Vai to the present Vai : what happened with our 7 strings guitar man you wtf you do it ! Is only joke guys don’t takes personal but at the set time is strange , Vai have tons of 7 strings guitar and last year Tony Macalpine some stupid guys stolen his Ibanez rg 7 strings guitar and he have to ask a guitar is not fair!
