One of the Best Guitarists in the World: Steve Vai Concert Review
- Date of Concert: November 13, 2022
- Location of Concert: Old Forester's Paristown Hall in Louisville, KY
- Opener: Larry Mitchell
I finally saw Steve Vai in concert.In Louisville, Kentucky.He and his band sounded phenomenal, playing about 2 hours and 20 minutes.For those that don’t know, Steve Vai is a very successful guitarist, having played with Frank Zappa, Alcatrazz, David Lee Roth, Whitesnake, many guest appearances with different artists, and of course, a solo artist.Guitarist/Producer Larry Mitchell opened the show and later jammed with Vai near the end.Vai had a few good stories to tell, but still let the music go most of the talking.Near the end, he even went into the crowd and strapped his guitar onto a fan and played the guitar while she held it. Pretty cool.It was another great concert.Steve Vai and his band are incredible.A good end to a crap week.I’ve had a lot of them lately.I expect this week to be no different.Two more concerts to see this month and then that May be the last ones I see until March.We’ll see.Steve Vai Band Members:

- Jeremy Colson (Drums)
