I love the way he plays the guitar in a way that you don't need words at all. Seeing him in London next month, yipppeeee!!!
But you do however need to pull stupid faces to accompany the guitar 
I saw Satriani at Graspop last year. Zakk Wylde was on after playing for Ozzy and just seemed crap by comparison. Infact he was just pretty crap really but I think he was wasted.

Anyone a fan and going to see him on his UK tour? I am going to the BIC.
I kinda bought the ticket on a spur as I only know a few of his tunes. Been delving deeper today and really liking soem of it - some of its very chilledo ut and soulful.
Anyone?
Might be going to the exact same show - got a txt last night saying he was going to be there. I kinda bought the ticket on a spur as I only know a few of his tunes. Been delving deeper today and really liking soem of it - some of its very chilledo ut and soulful.

FTLOG, gets very technical.
Once you get used to the patterns and take it in stages, it's not actually too bad. Does help if you've got a long reach though 
This is quite good to watch it being unravelled: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNKK5jxztHI
And this for a complete CC of Vai live: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWgbMY-s_2g
Back to the point in question - didnt like anything after Crystal Planet personally. Time Machine (the live bit) is worth getting hold of

Taken in sections at a time, FTLOG aint too bad (I've never nailed the real fast speed picking bits though). I never got to grips with the little nuances Vai gave the tune with the trem either.

lol. seriously though, the live version from the first G3 gig I think is the best live version. the astoria one gets a bit too wierd and i think his guitar slips out of tune too.
otherwise a great vid.
for subtle but brilliant trem action, whispering a prayer has to be right up there. stunning piece of music.
n e 1 else sseing satch in dublin?

Guy's,
Just a quick post to bring this back to the top.....
Went to the Birmingham Symphony Hall last night to see Satch what can I say - AWESOME!!
First time I've seen hime live, the guy is brilliant.
Bought the Live CD a few weeks ago but wasn't really prepared for the experience of actually being there!
Wasn't too sure about Paul Gilbert though - didn't think his stuff was as melodic or flowed as well as Satch's.
Chris
Makes me want to go and dig my guitar out and attempt to learn again...

Fingers crossed next weeks threatened rail strikes won't go ahead.
I usually drive to Hammersmith Appollo as there is a big NCP just round the corner.I have taken the trains, but becuase I have to get to Liverpool Street It's always a frantic rush to try and make the last train.
