She has a great sound, is the guy on drums Vinnie Collaiuta? Seems like it must be him.

I never got to listen to much from him, looking forward to explore his discography.

Yeah I know those, Eric Johnson is pretty cool, I like Steve too, although not like his manic supporters, but he's a great showman and does a good job at keeping guitar popular.

Well all I can say that it's Eddie Van Halen Love Van Halen, what would be 80's without Van Halen.

He's one of those guys that the guitar leaves the realm of being an instrument and is a natural extension of his own body.
Bowing down, couldn't say that better.

He's gonna be playing in Vienna in the summer so I might check it out.
