    The sound in "whispering a prayer" by vai is also amazing - he did real weird things when I saw him live, like he bent a note but it was bending over two octaves in some weird way! And then he played with his tongue...
    And then there was malmsteen, he had a gadget that made his guitar sound like a violin - and he played a whole symphony sounding like an orchestra! it was amazing...

    who is that
     

  10. lol....he doesnt actually play with his tounge..if u notice he has his whammy bar pressed down when he is supposedly playin with his tounge..
    thats what showmanship probably is..
    ive got a video of malmsteen where his guitar sounds like a violin..and its not any gadget...
    its just his guitar...the volume knob of the fender strat is very near to the bridge ...so what he does is keeps lowering and increasing the volume repeatedly while at the same time he is also pickin and playin the notes..
    btw..
    MALMSTEEN HAS WRITTEN AN ALBUM FOR AN ORCHESTRA..
    its called CONCERTO SUITE FOR ELECTRIC GUITAR IN Eb MINOR..
    check it out..its gr8 and that piece he played is fugue..
    he has played it with a backin track in g3...
