Looks like Vai is moving out of Encino. Some good gear and studio pics. I noticed among the amps he has a Friedman Jose and what looks to be a JCM or DSL combo:

Who isn't these days? A beautiful state that Newsom's run into the ground. And that dipshit mayor that damn near let her city burn to the ground. Those poor bastards still can't get permits to rebuild their homes! SHITHOLE state, with incompetent leaders. I hope Hilton wipes the floor with those losers.

Wouldn't be surprised if he is joining the ever growing list of rockers moving to the Nashville area.

God, please stay away. Nashville has become miserable with all of the people coming here. It’s completely ruined what once made the town special.

It must be really bad for him to move away from that paradise. I mean look at that place. I'm sure everybody has seen the Harmony Hut but I had no idea the rest of the place was that cool.

If so I'm guessing he's either going to Nashville, Texas, or Florida....
Look at some of the outboard gear on his setup....pretty sweet stuff right there!!!

It was fun in the 80's to early 90's to me. That's when you could get anywhere from anywhere in 15 minutes. Parking was free or maybe $5 anywhere. It was safe enough that my friends and I as jr high and high school kids roamed around without worry. The people were much more gracious. There was always a bunch to do and most of it was affordable even to a high school kid. Everywhere you went the restaurants and music spots had a long history that was awesome to learn about and incredible musicians were everywhere. Now it's just any other big city with condos going to the sky. Drunks roam around everywhere. Everything costs a fortune. It's dangerous. People are assholes wherever you go. All of the cool spots have been leveled to put up overpriced everything (restaurants, apartments etc.) Nothing has a history and the town is 100% run for commerce. Not to mention it's miserable to try to drive or commute to, in or around. I live 20 minutes away and only go in if I have no other choice (like my son's wedding in a few weeks). I've have not idea why anyone would want to move here anymore. Even the music scene is crap. All of the great old studios are leveled for condos. Live music is a bunch of commercial copies of one another. Lots of talent still, but everyone I know or knew who was in the music business (I was a professional recording engineer for many years) has been forced out of Nashville because they can't afford it anymore or they've given up and moved on.
I'm not sure when the turn happened. I went away for a decade or so to college. It was starting during that time but was still ok. Since Covid, though, when half of CA, NY and IL moved here, the deterioration has increased exponentially. I go years between going into Nashville proper at this point. I go around it.
