I've seen them live 4 times. One of my all time favorite bands.

One more before I turn in for the night.

It's funny, I was watching my favorite musician of all time, and was assembling a montage of videos to display his skills, when I happened upon this new thread.

I first heard of Steve Vai, after taking over for Yngwie, upon his departure from Alcatrazz…..

Prior to this, he had played with Zappa, and in the years following, he played with Diamond Dave and Whitesnake, all while pursuing his solo career.....

In recent times, he had shoulder surgery, and upped his game by making one handed music.....

Crazy thing, though... He recently had to have another surgery, on his fretting hand, to correct an issue created by holding an extremely difficult chord too long...

I'm excited about this thread!

@Oaktavia started with the greatest metal band the UK has produced since Maiden, but if I’m going to start at the top I need to go there too. This tune makes my jaw drop every time:

[deanclean]

“It’s Alive” album by the Ramones recorded in London on NYE 1977. I was able to see them 8 times I think over the years but this show would have been amazing.

@neph93 Electric Wizard played at Maryland Deathfest back in 2012 I think it was. It had been their first appearance here in some time. It was in a bad part of Baltimore, outside in a parking lot under a highway. I kid you not, as soon as they started playing, it started thunderstorming and lightning. The played much of Funeralopolis. One of the most fun live shows I've been to.

This thread has been busy and I love it. Once it is later in the day and I can crank some of these tunes, I'm sure I'll be enjoying my Saturday. Thanks folks, let's keep these coming.

@Oaktavia what happened to the leftover crack you said you were gonna post? LMFAO

[neph93]

Not strictly punk, but heavily influenced by it. They are also my favourite band of the last 20 years so there’s that [emoji1]

Contains the immortal verse:

«All your favourite songs wouldn’t seem all that sad, if you weren’t so depressed.
Elliot Smith seems like a mess to me,
And you cry way too easily»

And reference Lesley Gore’s «It’s my party (and I’ll cry if I want to)» at the end.

I was actually kidding when I told you that. But I think maybe I only thought of that because you did. (Unless you where pulling my leg).

Legs, tentacles, antennas….what were we talking about again?

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Ah shit, I was thinking it was ESP or something.

I remember seeing these guys on local cable access, in the early to mid 80s…..
