That's awesome, Alex is great. My bucket list is about to be checked as well. I met Steve Vai in the mid 2000's and got to see him play up close and personal. A few years later I had front row to Joe Satriani in a small theater venue (in Columbus actually, I forget the name) thanks to a friend of a friend who was a promoter. Didn't get to meet him though. Just a few weeks ago, I got to see Tony MacAlpine in a very small club in MI and meet him. The pic was taken with my iPhone...I was RIGHT THERE. Now in Feb, Vinnie Moore is going to be at that same club and I got tickets already. That will round out all of my favorite guitarists (wouldn't mind meeting Eric Johnson or Jason Petrucci either). p.s. if you're interested in seeing Vinnie, let me know...maybe we can hook up at the show. Here's a slo-mo vid I took too...
