I had the pleasure of shooting two dates of this tour and I enjoyed every second of it.

I figured instead of making two threads for each date I would just make 2 separate posts in one thread with 8 of my favorites.

Check out the rest of both dates here:

OH, MAN! I ENVY YOU SOOOO MUCH!

Steve Vai was my favorite guitarist during many years, when I used to play...he's just nuts, and makes the funniest guitar-faces! :) He's awesome, and so are your pictures!!

Perfect work! I would definately not mind to see more of these!

yep, I've seen all the parodies...John Petrucci, Yngwie, Vai...they're hilarious! I'm still a fan and the people who made the videos are probably fans too. hahah. :lol:

I could sooo buy some of those images to print them and hang them on the wall! I don't know if I'd rather be there to take pictures or to see/listen to the show!!

Great pics. I really dig 14 and the timing on 4 is pure Steve Vai.

The "Smoke on the Water" bit was genius.
