Like Eddie once said " if it's already been done why bother doing it again " Nobody will ever replace EVH same goes for Joe also.
Satch is 67. He can shred better than 99.9999% of guitar players alive or dead and has forgotten more about guitar than some of the best ever knew. He will have off days but it literally doesn't matter if he forgot how to play today, he's a living legend.
Well said! 👏🙌🎸🔥
Damn right there!
Agree to all of that BUT..... He should have "and maybe did" realize that taking this "reunion/tribute" VH gig would inevitably lead to a hell storm of comparison/criticism, hate etc.... Other than the possible money to be made there are no upsides to even trying.
satch knows he has nothing to prove.... satch is a monster. he's taught vai, hammett, and alec skolnick. he filled in for keef mick went solo. satch is the real deal and he knows it and remains humble.
I'm that .111111111% of guitarists who can play everything Joe satriani ever played just like him but he wouldn't even know where to find the front door on my playing. Fuck Joe satriani and these fools talking on this set. I wish I knew Sammy Hagar so he could fire Joe satriani... I was playing Van Halen when Van Halen started playing Van Halen. I should be writing a new album for Sammy... I wish I knew Alex so I could jam with him and write some songs... I think I could get him to go buy another set of drums and record a new album with Sammy and me. There's just not a nice way to tell you guys that Joe satriani sucks at playing Van Halen
Phil is incredible and Joe helped pave the road for modern rock. Two...both... always... incredible.
If Joe had sounded exactly like EVH on Stern then people would have criticized for being a wanna be or some other insult. The internet is insulting because it gets more attention than being nice.
Joe and Steve and just such humble musicians……something the new generation will never understand. They are beyond proving anything….their longevity is testament to their fan base and the respect the music community has for them. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Satriani hadn't had enough time to perfect the intro to Mean street
A player that good, he will master it soon.
"Masters of Shred" interview Andy Wood, He slapped all the haters
on Instagram at the time for hating on Joe Satriani
Well said! 👏🎸 Yes, we would love to interview Andy, he’s another phenomenal guitarist! 🙌🎸🔥 We will look into making that interview happen 🎸🎸
The most bizarre part of all that is…what were the odds that they would ever even play “Mean Streets” anyway? I don’t see Sammy ever singing that. So if it wasn’t even in the potential setlist why go there?
It seemed like it was this innocent question from Howard (if there is such a thing) and Joe just answered honestly.
Personally I think that Howard appearance was a colossal mistake.
Of course now the tour isn’t an Eddie tribute anyway and has just turned into a Sammy tribute instead.
@@chrislestermusic Joe probably figured out the into in 81 to teach to a student, and besides when it came on the radio hadn’t listened to it till he started dong his deep dive into the tour. That song was probably on his listen to not learn list.
Thank you for sharing, Phil X is one of my favorites of this newer generation of shredders. He's very talented but yet humble.
6:04 I agree with editing but also Nuno made the point that Sammy kind of threw them (esp. Joe) under the bus. They had barely rehearsed it! Also agree that it is super-douchey to go after an icon like Joe.
Eddie himself even talked about doing covers, saying that no matter what he does, it always ends up sounding like Eddie.
There are some guys out there that really nail the Eddie vibe like Jason Deraps, but Joe brings the star power that nobody else has. And he's been with Sammy for years, so it only makes sense that they'd do a tribute to Van Halen.
AND this is the only way we can hear the Van Hagar songs live. Why not?
Phil X has got to jam with Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony on the Best of All Worlds tour!
That would be SHREPIC!! 🤯🙌🎸🔥
Seeing Phil and Sammy side by side would be like seeing Chad Smith and Will Ferrel side by side. Lol
Joe is an incredible technician and virtuoso.... HOWEVER.... every player will have a challenge from time to time playing either THEIR OWN MUSIC they worked hard to create and haven't played for a long time.... and of course there will be a challenge playing OTHER PEOPLE'S hard and challenging work.... it has NOTHING to do with how good you are.... are how good you're not.... even Joe said Steve would be able to play Power Cosmic better than what he can play it nowadays..... there are many variables as to what you will play well or not well on a given day.... people criticising other people's playing are not getting what composing and playing is all about.
I HAVE TO SAY.... PHIL X.... is someone I've listened to lately and have been completely impressed.... he's got it all... originality and chops, feel... it's all there.... HE'S AWESOME.....!
Exactly! I can’t play Eddie’s stuff very well at all…..but I can play Yngwie’s stuff (not quite up to warp speed but it’s going well). Strange how my mind and fingers can do one fairly easily and not the other. Like Eddie’s legato triplets to picked triplets back to legato triplets back to picked….that kicks my ass backwards! But like pedal tone string skipping a la Yngwie, no problem.
My mind just does not wrap itself around EVH’s playing style. But it takes to Yngwie’s like a duck to water.
I’m sure others have the opposite problem. And some have no problem with either. Go figure.
Joe has exactly zero to prove to anybody.
We agree! Joe is an absolute Legend but sadly with social media everyone has a voice even those who have no room to talk 🤦♂️🎸🎸
Yeah, even if he could never pay it quite right-does that mean he now sucks? LOL
There is no freaking way I would ever criticize a true legend like the Satch. If I remember correctly, Howard Stern kind of put him on the spot asking him to play the riff, he probably hadn't even practiced the riff.
I remember it the same way. It was live. Howard asked the question and Joe reluctantly played it. And they hadn’t rehearsed any music till the day of the interview.
I Love Humble Musicians when you come by them. 👍
The neon Kramer sign ,,the ultimate warrior....and Phil X ...i just subscribed
Thanks so much for subscribing! I appreciate it! 🙏🙌🎸 Can you tell I’m a huge Wrestling and 80s guitar fan? 😜🙌🎸
Satch is one of the greatest of all time!! I have his signature Ibanez 2480 and it's the best guitar I've ever played!! 😊❤
Can't be 2 cooler guitar dudes than Joe & Phil
So true! 👊😎👍🎸🎸🎸
Gotta love people sitting at home, who will always be at home playing in their bedroom, bashing a legend. Hahaha. Dopes
Thanks Phil for a great show and the good words for Satch he is a very good dude and a great player I am a new subscriber and fan and I am looking forward to seeing more from you guys thanks again stay well everyone God Bless peace
Thanks so much for the kind words and for subscribing to the channel! We greatly appreciate your support🙏🎸
Joe is such a good spirit.
Any criticism is silly.
💯👍🎸🔥
5:25 IMPORTANT POINT to make is that in an interview Satriani told you that he intentionally held himself back from playing EVH music because he didn’t want to “accidentally steal” anything. He respectfully added that working on it was a conflict in his brain as he was hearing someone else’s style and not his own. He showed nothing but respect for EVH. And these “INFLUENCERS” probably have been playing EVH for many many years and were looking for an opportunity to elevate their own egos by bashing someone who could run circles around them any day of the week! Joe was kind enough to show his progress as he was still working on EVH stuff. He could have easily gave himself more time by saying that they were saving that performance for a live show. But this humble legend has no problem showing his human side! I LOVED seeing him “work” on EVH moves and his child like smiles when he nailed an EVH riff. He was having fun like we all did the first time we played a popular song for the first time! Awesome to she that! Not cool that these “influencers” attacked him to serve their own ego!
Very well said brother! You made some great points and I appreciate you checking out our interview with Joe which definitely helps explain the situation as a whole much better 👏🎸🎸
Yeah the criticism is pathetic.
1) he hasn't even really learned the songs yet (at the time of the show being filmed).
2) Apparently, he was given no notice that he was playing and didn't rehearse.
3) If he decides to play something sounding like himself, that is fine, otherwise just get a session player to do note for note.
I think he sounded great all things considered
So many people just don’t think before they make a negative comment about Satch on Stern ….. Obviously they recently decided to do a VH Tribute Show and Joe hasn’t even started to Rehearse / Practice any VH material … and he’s busy playing his Own Music ….. I’m sure with proper rehearsals and jamming Joe and the rest of the Band will do just fine
If you want to grow, go out of your comfortzone. That’s exactly what Satch did and is doing. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and play Van Halen songs. I challenge all the other critics to do the same.
Vai for me is the g.o.a.t, we all have our own faves and tbh i don't care what anybody else's is. Nobody should care! I can't recall ever hearing a bad story about him, i'm sure there are some but to be THAT great and retain humility 👏
It's all on Sammy for putting Joe on the spot like that, Sammy basically says there's all these guys that can copy Edwards playing but you need a guy like Joe that can kill it on everything, then the have him play something he isn't that familiar with playing, so the guys Sammy just said can't cut it got offended. Joe's tone, style and musical sense is pretty different than what Ed did, his sound is very different and because Sammy can't sing those songs in the Key they're supposed to be in of course, it doesn't quite work... They should have done two Sammy songs and one Van Halen song like finish what you started that slightly different version might have been pretty cool. I feel bad for Joe...he never should have been put in that position... when the TH-cam videos pop up recorded on smartphones Joe's going to get hammered by the fans no matter what he does.... Edward was loved by fans posthumously his legacy is untouchable.....
That’s a good point, that song line up would have maybe worked a bit better especially given the key they were being performed in due to Sammy’s vocals😯👍However, I think Joe is going to wow all the naysayers on this upcoming tour😬👍🎸
I still have many artists on my “Must see Live!” Bucket list, some, sadly, are no longer a possibility. But, I have seen Joe S. Twice! Once in ‘88’ in PDX, and once in Denver at an “open air” with Dream Theater and King’s X. Nobody sounds better live, than JS!! His Tone, the Vibe, even outdoors, he is just so good, and the musicians around him so locked in, but also laidback and fun!! P.S. DT and King’s X, were Great also. We were early, and heard Dug, Ty, and Jerry’s sound check, MASSIVE! Just gotta see Phil and the Drills now!
Satch with Dream Theater and Kings X?! OMG! That’s a dream line up!🤯🙌🎸🔥 I freaking love Kings X, they are incredible musicians and tragically often overlooked! 🙌🎸🔥
Same with me. I thought I’d have plenty of time to catch Van Halen before it was too late. Well….it’s too late.
Never saw SRV.
Well, Lord willing, I’ll see YJM in Dallas in November!
That was such a bummer. For one, hearing Satch struggle is only deferential to EVH. Also, EVH is so huge that Satch probably spent some time and thought on how NOT to play too much like him and be his own artist. And third, what guitar player gets anything right every time? And also, do these fans think EVH would have enjoyed seeing them tear down another player? These are some of the same guys that try to tell Wolfgang how to honor his own father.
I hate to see Satch take an L on anything, but the “community” took a bigger L and made a mountain out of a molehill on this one.
Respect to Satch. Respect to EVH’s legacy.
He’s like a Wayne’s World guest (Phil).
People don’t seem to understand that even LEGENDS, MASTERS come across stuff that they don’t nail right away. Look at Mike Portnoy’s video where he’s trying to play a Tool song. If you asked Vai to sit in with Muddy Waters, he’d be a bit off as well. It’s not his thing. People need to lighten up
Mean Streets intro is essentially a drum beat. Guitar players know that. Drummers know that. Some guitarists are not natural drummers. Simple as that. People should be respectful of Satch vs looking to shit on a legend for kicks.
Phil is Legend
can you get George Lynch on show?? like to see him at G3 tour
We actually had George on the show a few times :) Here’s one of the Talking Shred Episodes we did with him a few years back 😬👍🎸👇
th-cam.com/video/P-_yeCQEtgg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_Q1XEhOxyzSMOlEi
Dude evh is the real deal legend also we have people like the atómic punk band or wolfie who play it properly ...you dont switch places between satch and evh...i even prefer reb beach or i remember in the 90's norum used to play evh stuff like a god
Joe was totally put on the spot during that appearance. Let's be real, it's not like Joe sits home learning others players stuff.
Just Sayin
I remember when phil x destroyed a perfectly good guitar by torching it and ripping out the pick ups....
They hadn't even had one rehearsal, Satch will nail it, night after night, and the tour will be the closest thing to Van Halen you will ever see again!
Phil knows what's up...I'll just leave it at that!
Joe tanked it on purpose out of RESPECT for Eddie...true humility.
Love Satch
a vast majority of guitar players dont play solos the same every time or is the case with old blues players who wouldnt even play songs that were featured in their wheelhouse the same you have players who include certain elements of the og solo in there but alter it like SRV in pride and joy theres elements on the recorded version that he would play but he didnt play the same solo
Joe's ego won't let him play VH. He has to put his touch on it which totally changes it. Phil on the other hand doesn't let the ego get in the way and totally nails EVH.
Joe is awesome, period. Bottom line is he wasn't prepared enough for that Stern thing. None of them were. Sammy jumped the gun going on there. But oh well, is what it is.
Anyone who bashes a Living LEGEND like Joe Satriani is outta their Mind 🤯 Ego Check Needed.
Eddie is incredibly beloved, and deservedly so. It's a fools errand to even try to 'fill his shoes' but if you are gonna attempt it I would suggest that you need to be a lot more prepared and rehearsed than Joe was. I think the reaction was as extreme as it was because the attempt seemed slapdash and consequently some felt it was maybe a little disrespectful.
If you want to hear the song like the recording, go listen to the recording. If you can't appreciate improvisation, get back on the porch. BECAUSE,...The BIG DOGS are RUNNIN".
Satch going out and playing a legends music ESPECIALLY one who's passing in still fresh in their fan's minds is asking for trouble/stress/criticism/comparisons etc. But....
A VH tribute tour with Satchel "Russ"Michael Starr "Ralph" M Anthony and a bad ass drummer... They could and have pulled it off.
Just insane for someone to knock Joe.
The only person that carries any weight that shit on this performance was Nuno. I don't necessarily agree, but I'm not really in a position to argue with Nuno.
Internet: The only place where you can pretend you can play better than Satriani! lol
I think Sammy should have picked someone that was maybe already known to do Van Halen already, instead of having to work it up. Paul Gilbert, Phil X, Deraps, Dweezil Zappa, Marty 5150, etc, etc. Wolfgang is the obvious choice except that he wants no part of any of this. Some of these guys LIVE to play Van Halen stuff.
Joe is a great guitarist but he isn’t known for playing any Van Halen stuff. I’m sure he’ll work it up just fine. He’s a pro. But there was an easier path down this road. Hell, Phil X could have sang the DLR songs that Sammy is loath to sing.
That is why I only play my own music and noodle
I didn't see the video, or the comments concerning, Joe.. but together you do come across as somewhat patronizing, here - like no one else has an opinion... and while Phil extols the virtues of his wife's, fish pie - Mr Shred takes the opportunity to promote his merch.. yeah sure why not - the icing on the cake. hahaha..
A fine line, boys - who was it who used to say, 'keep it real..'
I’m sorry you feel that way. I in no way was trying to patronize Joe nor do I think I have :) I loved Joes performance with Sammy, I just wanted to address the unneeded negativity that followed his performance and put a positive spin on the situation. Joes a monster player and absolute LEGEND. Case closed 😎👍🎸🔥
He obviously didn’t rehearse or practice the songs he tried to show. The whole thing is a bit silly. Joe is 20x the player EVH was so I’m not in the least worried whether he can pull off the songs.
PEOPLE!! Don't be an asshole! It's pretty simple.
💯 👏🙌🎸🔥
hello :)
Anyone talking smack about Joe’s talent is tripping ballz. These guitar “influencers” need to stop shilling gear and go outside and play for people.
lol@ "influencers"... The term has become just something weird.
if i see a "tribute" - i want to see a whole diff take on whichever artist is being acknowledged - we ALREADY have the classic licks
-do something different !!!!!
Joe lets out more talent in one fart than all those "influencers" can gather during their all lifes. They could spend years smelling Joe`s farts and still not make one song worthy of listening to twice.
Yeah, he messed up, he tried to play something he didn't have down 100%, it's not a big deal.
Most of these guys who think they can play it “better” are the same bedroom players who, if you ever see them onstage, have zero stage presence or charisma. Dude, it’s rock n roll, it’s not supposed to be perfect
I love satriani but!!! PHIL X!!!!!
Dude!!! Skateboards & surfboards laying around the studio? Me too your show is great btw, rock on ma bruddahs, all about da feel & tone ( & chops)
JS for nothing to apologize for. 😂 Nobodies dissing a God. 😂
That's rich! 😂
How the heck can anyone down someone as good as Satriani…even if they were better which 99.9% chance they’re not…losers👊😆
Today’s “influencers” are just yesterday’s music critics. They’re players that couldn’t get famous via their playing so they’re gonna critique everybody else. Buying a social media account with a bunch of followers takes the place of them having any real talent. One thing they all have in common is that outside of social media, nobody has ever heard of them. They are fun to mock though.🤷♂️😆
When a poser defends another poser!!!..
?????
@@montauta Don't forget to take your estrogen!
OMFG!.. they met and they liked each other!.. wow!.. When 2 posers fall in love!. ❤❤❤
Sorry you feel that way. Two posers they certainly are NOT👍🎸
@@MastersofShred Replacement gt player for Bon Jovi???.. Don't forget to take your estrogen!. The other guy was a gt teacher for 50 yrs and still can't play that tapping part!🤣🤣🤣
The internet has turned a big part of the guitar community into a shit show of hypocrites that can’t make a name for themselves criticizing the ones that have.
Well said! 👏🎸🎸
A bit late😅
I thought he sounded great
Same here! However, the naysayers took great joy in criticizing his performance🤦♂️
@@MastersofShred ahh yeah ‘how many guitar players does it take to screw in a light bulb? One to do it, 99 to say they could do it better’ 😂
@@tomfairbairn1202 🤣👍🎸
example bazillion of how dumb the internet is- hobbyist guitar dork on the internet taking jabs at Satriani, like he's gonna go worry about a 45 year old EVH stunt like these people have been for the last 45 years. It's a silly, jealous lot
1984 VH worst concert ever didn't listen to Van Halen for years after that
Mmm..So, Eddie Van Halen. Was a "pure style "guitar player. Not so much a traditional technical player.... To copy these types of guitar players. Requires the person copying to be a chameleon player... I find chameleon players don't truly have their own style.
Phil X >>>>> Joe S… Come at me bro…
respectfully, note for note is mostly for amateurs. also, get your own damn style
Stern sucks not Joe
Joe is better as an instrumentalist. If they are going to do this money grab bettencourt would of been a better pick!
Joe doesn’t need defending. Joe is a great guy. Eddie was an asshole
I unfortunately never met King Edward so I can’t comment from experience on your statement but Joe is a total legend as well and we more so meant that Phil is 𝙜𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙖𝙩 for Joe just as we have here at Masters of Shred :) 👍🎸
Lame
I quit playing on social media because progressive guitar players have become so toxic.
