The greatest living rock guitarist.
IIRC, Petrucci recently replaced Johnson.Originally posted by: broon

Probably Via and Eric Johnson. From the G3 tour? Satch rules. The greatest living rock guitarist.
I've heard he's a swell guy. He is the reason DreamTheater and LiquidTension RULE. Well, Mike Portnoy too.Originally posted by: CorporateRecreation
I like Petrucci better personaly, and I met him and got his autograph the last time I saw him. He is such a super nice guy we had like a 5 min talk.
Hammet is a Satch student?!?!?!?! COOL!Originally posted by: thomsbrain
The extremist was one of his best.
For the record, Joe Satriani spent some time as a guitar instructor. A few of his students went pro: Steve Vai, Kirk Hammet (lead for Metallica), Doug Doppler, Larry LaLonde (Primus), and many others.
Steve Vai first got his break playing for Frank Zappa, who was a great influence on his later work... I don't know what that has to do with anything, but I thought I'd say it since I'm foaming at the mouth with degree-of-seperation musical knowledge.
If I wanted to listen to blues, then you would be correct. However, I was listening to a rock guitarist.Originally posted by: Wingznut PEZ
"Just wanna say Joe Satriani owns everyone"
Apparently you haven't heard of Mr. Stevie Ray Vaughn.
Don't get me wrong, Satriani is awesome... But he's no Stevie Ray.

Speedwise, Malmsteen would kill Satch. Stylewise, gimee Satch anyday.
I strongly disagree. I think Malmsteen is a great musician, and a great player. However, his strong point is his speed. Satch just got more style than him. Malmsteens music is based on classical themes, he aint no bad musician. Far from it.Originally posted by: thomsbrain

Amen. Malmsteen is an exellent player. But he is a horrible musician. Satch is a great player and an exellent musician.
