Stop the Madness! You guys sound like high school chicks criticizing prom dresses. Vai is brilliant and if you are tired of his approach so be it. Satch is a wonderful player and ditto. JP is a worldbeater and Luke is a genius.

Luke was very concerned playing with the boys. The boys respect the living daylights out of Luke. It is consumate professionals showing total respect and not an ounce of pettiness.

I am good friends with many of these guys and Steve Vai uses our strings but is a very dear friend and a very kind man. He is a great father husband and friend. He is generous to a fault for those less fortunate or struggling and a model artist. He is funny articulate and forget about standing in the audience, try being next to him on stage...I have. My favorite comment after finishing playing with him and being astounded, "hey Steve!, you play from a different corner of the school yard" I was blown away.
That night it was Luke Jay Graydon Me and Rick Neilson. THey made me take my turns soloing...talk about feeling stupid!

I talked to Vai two days ago. we both have to be careful when we talk because it is going to take some time. It was over 1.5 hours. He said that Luke was the unquestionable star of that night at the houe of blues.

How bad would it be if everyone played the same? lets celebrate what a wonderful instrument the guitar is and its abaility to allow such diverse expression.

Amen brother.

I do love Luke's playing though...he plays what I hear in my head/heart but cannot technically pull-off
