30 seconds in, and I'm in awe. Vai = PWNAGE.
Ya know what I love best about Vai? His ear for making strange melodies.

yeah, that and how when he plays he gets that "whoa crap" look on his face when he does something awesome, along with the myriad of other facial expressions he makes when he plays.

Yep, that's stage presence; something many a would-be shredder severely lacks.

imo, vai, gilbert, and buckethead have the most stage presence. then again it's not hard for buckethead, since he...well, you know...he wears a bucket on his head
(it should be noted that the 80's aren't being regarded in this discussion...everybody had stage presence back then)

I didin't care for it. Random show off sweepage and going all the way up and down the neck on two strings to look cool. But then again he's still really good.

actually vai is one of the few guitarists who doesn't do that stuff just to show off...he intends to do it.

and rusty cooley. if you don't know what i'm talking about, watch his videos and take notice of the blank stare with the occassional cocky glance at the camera.
i do like outworld, however. it's a lot different when it's a whole band full of showoffs, because then technically nobody is showing off because they're all playing at the same level.

vai fan here too, yeah I'm always checking out the stuff on youtube. did you see lucien nocelli's new video for caffeine blast though? On youtube some guitar nut was replying to a vai video about nocelli, I thought it was spam and when I checked it out was blown away. I wish there was more from him out right now but I think there's more coming from what I googled
