GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ Oh Day Of Holy Days!

Posted by: Avenite Jul 13 2007, 01:19 AM

I bought Steve Vai's new CD (sound Theories Volumes 1 & 2) on his website, even though I had to pay $7.95 shipping (!) but it turned out to be worth it because I am one of the lucky one-in-four (2,500 in 10,000) who got a satin pass to get into the Steve Vai meet-and-greet and all sorts of other goodies I suspect!

I am so excited and its totally worth going to a concert on a school night to MEET STEVE VAI! I havn't even listened to the album yet (I most definitely will soon) but it would probably still be worth it without the CD.

no joke, that would be great idea..a GMC Lesson by Steve Vai... ohmy.gif

Posted by: Avenite Jul 13 2007, 06:04 AM

I don't know how he would react to that heh... and I think I would be a little embarrassed to ask that biggrin.gif

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Jul 13 2007, 10:22 AM

Congratulations! biggrin.gif

Of course you have to tell him about gmc - he will then remember you as the guy who informed about gmc a whole year earlier than his manager!! wink.gif biggrin.gif

Posted by: Rvddps Jul 13 2007, 10:25 AM

Ahh dont be. More than likely. You will talk about guitar. Then just say something like this "Yeah, i take lessons from this site called Guitarmasterclass.net. Its an amazing site, and ive learned tons from. We have tons of amazing instructors. You should check it out sometime. And maybeeeeee (with a lil grin, or how my g/f calls it. A cocky smile biggrin.gif) you could do a lesson of your own. Its great stuff"

true, im sure that if its about guitar he will definately check it out if he has time, plus you have to tell him more stuff about GMC, like how we all get along here and help others and have a good time: a great comunity were we learn!

Hey man, that's so cool. I also got one of the satin passes from the special edition of his new CD. I'm excited out of my mind that I'll be able to meet "his royal vai-ness" biggrin.gif
And as you said, it's worth the high price of S&H if you get a pass. It's sure to be a great time.
I'll try and get some pics and if I do, I'll definitely post them on GMC. And of course, if I even get a chance to talk to him, I'll try to mention GMC. Ahhh, September 23rd seems so far away...

P.S. Which show are you going to Avenite?

Of course, Paul Gilbert would be pretty cool too tongue.gif

Hey, ya never know. GMC survived the great guitar lesson massacre of 2007. Stranger things have happened.

Posted by: Avenite Jul 14 2007, 01:32 AM

I'm going to the Sept. 12 show in S.F.

I finished the first disc of Sound Theories (Disc one is Vai songs, new and old, with the orchestra and Disc 2 is songs he wrote FOR the orchestra and he does not play along, but I believe there is another electric guitarist) and it was Great!

Agreed, it's an awesome album!
And just think, if 2 different people tell Steve about GMC at separate shows, he might say: "Hey, maybe this website is worth checking out" cool.gif
And before you know it, he'll be one of GMC's instructors...At least that's the plan tongue.gif
