Beat me to it, just saw the article from last nights show. Yes he is !!!
Dave has got to be one boring frontman these days though. Not to start a 5 page thread on DLR bashing of course..

Eddie is always the man !
 
Btw, looks like he did a white paint job on a black stealth ?
 
I find it sounds huge because of all the delay.. not really earth shattering as it is the same old whammy dives, tapping, and harmonics. Sounds good though but not any different than anything else he has played in a live solo.
 
Yeah, I've been watching all the vids :rock:

Set list looks awesome, I can't wait till they come to Cleveland on Aug 3rd
 
At this point I think VH is going to do what he is known for. His days of innovating on guitar are long gone. He still plays very well live. You can't be young and hungry forever.....

Agreed.

I'm a huge fan of EVH's playing and innovation, but I think it's a fair criticism. Especially when they go on tour and charge the kind of money they do for concerts.
 
I've definitely changed over the years... I can barely sit through 60 seconds of a guitar solo nowadays, let alone 9 mins.
 
Shit....he's not using a VH4. Tour over,thread over.

And he is still the only guy that can pull it off. :rock: :rock: :rock: He looks like he is having fun, more power to him.
 
As long as he is kickin and playing, I'll buy into it,m because he is simply the man :worship:

I think the best ever live solo in terms of keeping it interesting, not too long, and full if fireworks was Randy Rhoads. At least the one he did on the Tribute album. I think of that as the best big arena live solos ever.

Rik Emmett from Triumph did a live solo that was like 30 fucking minutes long, it was soooo overdone. Yngwie as great as he is gives you everything he has 100 times over so he even gets boring.

I imagine myself being in a normal person's shoes when the drum or bass solo starts...............time to take a piss.

Yeah too bad, his tone would be a lot better lol!
 
As a HUGE RR fan with alot of boots and all the vids from the QR days to the limited Ozzy time.. RR's solos for the most part contained the same parts. especially when he got with Ozzy, the solo remained spot on basically. His solo spor during QR was different and was very interesting because he threw in lots of phrases and riffs that would come to life on the Ozzy solo albums.

IMO, Randy Rhoads saved Ozzy's career and brought a ton to the table along with Rudy, Don, Bob, and Tommy.

Had he still been around with us now and considering he would still be in a Rock setting, which from what his Brother and Mother told me during a visit to Musonia was that he was thinking of moving towards classical or alike and was growing tired and becoming disheartened with the way things were going.. it would be interesting to see what his current solo section would contain.

Anyway, not to go off.. EVH is the fuckin man !!

I guess Ed hasn't read the 5153/VH4 Poll as of yet ? He didnt get the memo.
 
I thought his solo when I saw him in Pittsburgh a few years ago was better but I love them both. :)
