QUOTE (Eat-Sleep-andJam @ Sep 1 2007, 08:58 AM)  As good as that was Im still going to boldly say ,no one can play like Steve Vai. Thats the main reason whenever I surf youtube and see steve vai cover, I dont even bother  - John Haha, point well taken. Right after I saw that video, I went back to listen to this; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1VjwciFLAg...ted&search= He is one special guitar player. Simply amazing, the heart and soul he pouts in to it. Boris |

Boris Indeed he is I was ironically going to post a link to the same video to prove my point but I think we all get the memo, Steve Vai = Brilliant guitar player But he is not my favorite for many reasons. - John -------------------- Join Me On the Lyrics Board !

Steve Vai may be more skilled then alot of guitarists. But I just like alot of other guitarists more. - John -------------------- Join Me On the Lyrics Board !

Oh...another Steve/Satch "Copy-Paste" guy. And honestly, after listening to Vai for 3 years there is no player out there that can make me think it's Vai playing. Vai is Vai.
And to reveal you a little secret...i'm bored of music like this. Just can't stand it any more. I guess i listened to it too long. I found that these old-school bands like 2 guitars, drums and bass guitar just got boring. All stated above is my opinion. You're free to disagree with it. -------------------- "It isn't how many years you have been playing, it's how many hours." -- Prashant Aswani "PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!" -- Michael Angelo Batio Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |

iv got to say- i didnt ever try out vai untill i clicked a link ^ somewhere above and listened to tender surrender. Im amazed- that was moving.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbAi7fa2yZo...ted&search= This really amazed me too. Any of you seen it before- hes just improvising right? or is it a song? |

DeepRotts: it's a song! He performs it very often!
JOhn: metal which has rich orchestrations and arrangements, classical music and other stuff related to orchestra. It makes music much more interesting. -------------------- "It isn't how many years you have been playing, it's how many hours." -- Prashant Aswani "PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!" -- Michael Angelo Batio Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |

Now, to add something about the actual player; Cesar Huesca is someone who I have followed for quite some time. Having met him once in Mexico I must say that his way of playing most songs by ear is amazing. He hardly ever uses any tabs, and if you listen to some of his own songs, you see that he doesn't just copy Vai or <insert shredder here>. He does have the rare piece with vocals, but most are so far just instrumentals.
Anyway, all in all - he is one amazing guitarist who improvises on most covers he makes as well, but he is not just a copy cat If you want to check out more of his stuff, check: www.soundclick.com/cesarhuesca www.myspace.com/cesarhuesca Edit: Oh, and I like his cover of Bad Horsie too, got some nice improv there: http://tinyurl.com/2e4bc3 P.S I am in no way affiliated with Cesar or anything, I just consider him another great up-and-coming guitar player.
