This is a great concert. The only thing that I didn't like was the camera trick and visual effects. I thought it was really annoying. But the music was excellent.

The Master on DVD!

Given his background (including his incredible musicianship), Steve Vai is perhaps the best guitarist living today. This video is truly inspirational to me. It always makes me want to pick up my guitar and practice; Steve shows you that the sky is the limit when it comes to technique and pure passion for the instrument. I would recommend this DVD to ANY guitar player, whether you're an experienced, seasoned musician and need direction, or even if you're just beginning and need inspiration. Rock on Steve!

Without a doubt Steve Vai draws the audience in once again and blows their minds. I was very impressed with this Dvd and it is one of my favorite live performance DVD's that I have seen thus far.

You can not only the intense emotion on the face of Steve Vai as he plays each note, but you are along for a ride that will shock and amaze you.

I highly recommend this DVD to anyone that has a profound interest in the music of Steve Vai.

My brother turned me on to this DVD a few months ago. It is one of the best live performances I have ever seen. It's not just Steve....his entire band are world class legendary musicians. Tony, Virgil, Billy, and Dave are all fantastic. I saw Steve and the boys in St louis on 4-10-05. They all tore it up. Steve did look tired, but you would too if you played almost every night of the week during a tour.

Never in my life have I seen such an excellent mix of virtuosity and showmanship. From stage tricks to solos to costumes to lights, Steve Vai and his band (which live up to Steve's name) put on the greatest show you will ever see. Absolutely worth 5 times price.
