C’mon director. You never cut away from the solo. Golden rule of filming music.
that's been the bane of my life watching live performances. the director never knows the songs and when to spotlight the soloist.
Fellow guitarists know...the rhythm parts on this song are no joke to play at tempo, and the solo...fuggetaboutit. Even Vito doesn't quite nail it live compared to the studio recording. Its a monster of melodic taps and bends. Vito even said in an interview that the nuances and subtlety of such solos don't translate well into an aggressive live show and the simpler stuff goes over better.
That was when Vitto was self doubting himself and was when he did an overhaul in style making it more aggressive and simpler, being influenced by the current bands at time they were touring. He was also chained by the technology of that time, he couldn't get the clean arpeggios since the amps and pickups couldn't handle the gain and would turn to mush allegedly.
Plus the tempo is usually a bit faster live
Even more amazing when you consider the studio cut was just him practicing the solo. Michael Wagener had the tape rolling and they cut it right from Vito's first practice take.
There is another video on Ytube of Vito nailing this lead live. It's a half hour show in Japan. Check it out sometime
@@thelordofhellaz that's ridiculous, but perhaps not unsurprising. no pressure = best take.
Brilliant melodic solo by VIto.
Video Producer, “I got an idea let’s switch the camera to Mike right in the middle of the solo”
Yes let's watch him stand in the corner while Vito is shredding this solo
Mike was pretty spot on vocally live. Nice job. I was at this show too :)
What a time to be alive 🤘this song is fkn incredible , a perfect pop metel song imo , and that solo by Vito bratta is bone chilling
You're a lucky man, Sean Naughton
Tough to pull off any “real” live stuff ...pretty good job here!
He sounded pretty gassed to me. Maybe better to do this song as an encore.
But Vito was spot on as usual.
He was pretty good. Probably should have done some cardio though.
Simply one of the best guitar solos of all time.
Simply empty sound without rhythm guitar during solo
Simply an overstatement. Vito is a great guitarist and highly underrated, but there are plenty better solos out there.
@@BBash19 That's a tough one to beat. It's the best part of the song (that's not saying much but...). He gets SO much across in just a few measures. It really is an awesome composition within another musical composition.
Vito is a great guy, professional, talented beyond anyone else, yet humble and generous.
Vito is so underrated! One of the best there is!
He’s only underrated because he hasn’t made new music in 30 years. However, he received plenty of attention and accolades between ‘87 - ‘91.
Agreed
Absolutely !
i like vito and all but he's not a strong live player in the least.
Best there was
Vito had it all....tone..ability...taste..class...one of my favourites...
When this song came on the radio it was electric ..Reached number # 8 in 1988 .. So many memories.. Wait was an anthem..
Zakk Wylde said this song is the only Song he thought guitar tapping fit perfectly with he was not into guitar tapping. But he said the song it’s perfect with it.
This is such a great song. Man, those were the days.
Can you believe they cut away from Vito on that wait solo? ugh...who edited this??
I know! I'm here to take notes!
Because the director figures the lead singer is the most important member of the band. Just like the "After Hours" show with Ozzy and Randy. Camera cuts to Ozzy and drums and bass during the guitar solos.
@@JoeR203 yes but that was a more critical as there is limited video footage of randy because Ozzy and Sharon were too cheap to make videos for the first two records. And the live show wasn’t planned until after randy‘s death. Every second away from randy on after hours is a crime.
Stupid MTV
Killer players. Wish Vito hadn’t dropped off the face of the Earth and we could have seen what else he could have done.
The bass player of course is James Lomenzo who now plays for Megadeth which is a pretty darn cool gig!
The voice on this dude is timeless ✌️
Mike just released an album on Frontiers Records called Songs of White Lion where he did solo performances of a lot of his old White Lion classics. You could tell that the songs were in a different key but that was intentional. Mike said that he can't sing a lot of those songs today like he did 30+ years ago so he doesn't try. He still killed it on that album, though. The songs are truly timeless and they give us a glimpse of Mike Tramp 2023 instead of Mike Tramp 1987. He's one of those guys like Michael Sweet from Stryper or Jeff Keith from Tesla: he realizes that Father Time is catching up to him so he adjusts accordingly and is honest enough with his fans to be upfront about it. I can totally respect that.
Really good performance but they should’ve focused on the guitarist more when he was playing- he really made the song extra special..
I remember this song from my youth even though I wasn’t into hair bands. Why? Because it’s a really good song! ✌️
OMG going back to the Best Time to be Alive and to know Really Great Music the 80s
Yes what a time to be alive
Bratta and tramp what a great duo. The music they made Never forgotten
That solo is incredible, never herd something like that.
Underated??? Vito was a guitar god!!! People dont even know who he is?? Crazy!!!!
As long as people get asked 'who was the greatest guitarist?' and the answer comes back 'EVH' or 'Hendrix' or (insert any even worse answer), then Bratta is vastly underrated.
@@thorman944 on a list of "greatest guitarists," Bratta has to be rated under EVH and Hendrix. He is a good guitarist, but he is way too derivative of Eddie. He fell into the same trap I do. I like the way EVH sounded so much, my tone, technique, phrasing, and note choice end up being a little too much like EVH..
I think it was due to White Lion's place in the pecking order of glam metal bands. They were kinda like Ratt and Skid Row: they had some commercial success but never reached the popularity of your Poisons and your Motley Crues and your Bon Jovis so people never paid as much attention to them as they did the more popular bands of the movement. Vito was a ridiculous talent for sure, though.
I remember seeing White Lion , Motley Crue & Skid Row on the same tour Birmingham NEC UK Nov 1989. Now that was special...
betul saya pun ada di sana NEC 1989 :) my very first concert in UK ;white lion and skid row opening for motley
How do you take the camera off Vito in the middle of his solo?!?!?
I've always been amazed watching Vito playing guitar.. He remains as the best guitarist in my whole life
Vito Bratta....Amazing! I could listen to him for another 30 years!
another great guitar solo ignored by a camera man or the editor
I absolutely love this song I used to love driving in my 67 red Firebird convertible and playing this song and I absolutely love the guitar part in the song blows me away I just love this song
Damn the 80’s were great!
Vito Bratta and Mike Tramp Great music band 🎶 Legends
One of rocks best solos. One of the best guitarists around. Too bad he lost his passion
I think something happened that destroyed his ability to play
@thedude4672 From what I read, he injured his fret hand around 1997 or so. He can still play classical guitar without too much trouble but it causes him quite a bit of pain when he tries to play electric. I'm not sure if his situation has gotten any better on that front. I hope it has.
Of course, it's also entirely possible that he had his fun as a rock star and wants to live his life as a faceless nobody like the rest of us. Nothing wrong with that. Not everyone can live the life of a touring musician for their entire lives.
Why did the camera guy move away from Vito's fingers while he was soloing?
I don't need to see Mike Tramp waiting for the solo to be over. I need to see Vito working that fretboard!
Sad.. all I think about is the model that played his love interest in the video Julie that was killed in a car wreck 😭🌈
Why couldn't he at least mention her at the end or beginning of this song. So strange cuz it sounds like he's singing it to her.. cause she is gone.. for real
Thanks for info. The other day I was wanting a good doc covering babes in Rick videos then and now zz top golden earing white lion motley Crue countless videos.. May she rip Julie.. For the time she sorta had the Paula Abdul sight resemblance and it was almost like seeing Paula in a cool White Lion video and song imo back then
What year did she die is there a link?
@@ALSILVERU2en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait_(White_Lion_song)
Vitto... Where are you?????
Wish he would come back
Cutting away from one of the great guitar solos of the 80s to show Mike Tramp basically just standing there - and then cut back to Vito but from behind? Are you kidding? It's just an awful decision by whomever originally edited this.
VITO WAS NUMERO UNO !!!!!
This song and Band gives be goosebumps great memories!
Here's something to think about. Vito Bratta constructed this solo. Many have copied it...but listen to it again. Could you come up with something so melodic and meaningful?
Vito was great!
80’s hair metal is the best era.In music history
Such a tight band live.
This is a great song they never got the real recognition that they deserve Mike tramp sounds great and the band is tight and Vito brata is an amazing guitarist one of the best
Ah, the days of getting someone to buy my friends & I some wine coolers & hanging out listening to this as a teenager.
80s. The best music
Buenas noches mi cielo💋Le vas a cocinar a mis suegros el Lunes?💋Como la están pasando?💋Que disfrutes un montón, estás en familia💋🤟🏼💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
I think I,d melt if I ever saw Mike Tramp up close or n concert🤣
He,s soooo AWESOME!!!
Vito is a world genius guitarist
great live performance......
Great performance. Entire band so tight.
This is an insane live performance!!! Seriously fantastic 🙌🏼
Vito.
He mentioned a wrist issue ... I think he developed arthritis in his fretting hand. ..the only way to improve this issue... Is through stem cell injections... I have experienced. This and had the injection... But I'm not what I used to be ... In my playing.
But I don't have any more pain👍👍👍
I read that as well. He can still play classical guitar without too much trouble but playing electric guitar is pretty painful for him.
3 days later i was born
Vito replaced Eddie as my favorite guitarist when I heard this song in '88. Still love Eddie, but Vito became #1 for me. I just wish Vito would at least upload some 5 minute videos of himself just noodling around on guitar. 1 or 2 videos a month would be enough to satisfy the fans. We don't need a band/album/tour. Just Vito playing.
Against the guitar solos from other "comparable" types of mid-late 80s n perhaps early 90s rock ballads... Vito's solo here just stands alone.... melodic, thrilling, and (to be less obvious/trite) unmatched!
80s camera men sucked, ignored vito on guitar, they did that to THE MIGHT VAN HALEN too on a livechotvfor teacher, solo comes in and camera man zooms in on Michael Anthony
swietny koncert oraz super piosenka oraz wspanialy zespol white lion
😲 What A Clean Playing & Sound Recording !! Holly (Lion) 🙏 It's More Better Then Studio Take. Lucky To Find All Those Performance Of '88
/ Feeling Like EIDDAY 💙 ♪ ♫
De las pocas bandas de hair metal que tocaban bien en vivo, jeje.
I remember being down at the Jersey Shore that summer. Every car on the strip was cranking this album.
Funny, the tempo was perfect….until the drummer came in? Weird right? Off to the coke races.
Timeless...
Vito is on my top 5 of all time list for tone. IMO the top 5 are, in no particular order: Brian May, Carlos Santana, David Gilmour, Eric Johnson and Vito Bratta.
George lynch #1,Vito brata #2
I never noticed it y til I heard this video, but Mike Tramps voice reminds me of Davy Jones singing rock.
I gotta say, those live vocals are pretty damn impressive...dude nails the pitches.
Skill gitar yg gila dri Vito Bratta, sayang band se legend ini bubar...
Amazing!
Before the tatoos.❤
A pitty they sing this song (we love) so fast.🥴
One of the most underrated hair metal bands. Warrant and white lion are my top favorites
I would like to thank the editor for cutting to Mike Tramp exactly at the part of the solo I was trying to figure out.
Love mikes voice! Great band, always.
reunion white lions together with original members mike tramp and vitto bratta
Great rocking hair metal song.
If they got back tog, they would sell out tours .
Way too faster drummer was speeding up and slowing down!
Really, during his solo, they show Mike??
Love this song!
When Rock music was the best!!!! The 80's was the best decade hands down!!!
Hell ya so many awesome singers and musicians and fantastic songs hands down
Wow, sound great live
Live version really kicks ass
Should be selling out arenas right now!
God, I'm so glad I came of age in the '80s.....
mike tramp was a stud and a gentleman
Vito Bratta
Great Guitarist
Idk if I was at this concert ❤
Top stuff for real men👍
David Lee who? White Lion was an immensely good band. RIP Eddie, you inspired countless guitarists. Mike Tramp- You rock, I can tell you loved it.
Damn you Vito
Tight.
Vito Bratta was the only talent in this band, lol, The drummer had a 200 piece drum kit, only used 4 pieces, the singer had a one octave range at best. Vito Bratta forever.
無理せずがんばってほしいです
White lion is one of the hair metal bands I haven't checked out On TH-cam hair metals where it's at baby
the way the bass player fucks it in the SECOND NOTE of the solo, just hurts man
auto tune kiled all thing
Guitar TONE in comparison to today's dweedly deedlely sounds
I'm not a huge fan of glam metal as a whole but Pride is such a great record.
God they were so damn good...It's a real shame they aren't still playing.
The grandfathers of the k pop for style , and songs pegadizos
Vito is definitely underrated great band! ❤
Damn shame this Band broke up awesome band
July 2023❤❤p❤
