Satriani, Vai, and Eric Johnson are 3 of the BEST guitarists ever.

i haven't listened to their stuff in awhile, i should break out the cs tomorrow. I;d have to say Satriani is my favorite of those 3.

I got to see him and Dream Theater in concert about 2 years ago. was my 1st concert ever and was freaking awesome. well worth the hassle me and my friend went through to go see it.

i even won aftershow passes to meet Joe but due to error on my part i missed meeting Joe. I got to meet the guys from DT instead though so it wasn't a total waste. Got my Images & Words CD booklet signed.

Johnson is great not only because he has technical skill, but because he has established his own recognizable sound. That is truly an accomplishment in the world of music, to sound like yourself and no one else. I've never really loved Johnson's music, but I will give him credit for that. But when he sings...UGH! *shudder*
