This week, the guys have the immense pleasure of welcoming to the show (to quote British royalty) “the genius, the master, of the space age guitar, Mr Steve Vai!
This is a deep one guys, and we cover...
-
Steve’s experience of 2020.
-
The PIA launch NAMM gig.
-
The "infinity shelf".
-
Candle Power “joint shifting” & Jerry Donahue.
-
Cheating your genius and nurturing creativity.
-
Practising in a state bliss & clock watching.
-
Studio album timelines.
-
New projects for 2021!
Oh, and in this week's longer Patreon bonus edition there’s extra minutes of intro banter with Steve, a huge reflection from the guys on recording the episode, and all of the NSFW nonsense.
It’s been a weird, miserable year, but making TGHP has been a wonderful respite from all the madness, and we all hope that these hours of collaborative guitar nerdy offers some escape for you all too. Thanks so much for listening and all the feedback.
We may have a couple more special shows up our sleeves before the new year, but on the off chance that doesn’t happen, best festive wishes to you all :)
Huge thanks to friend of the show Lee Wrathe for reaching out and connecting Steve to the pod, and of course enormous thanks to Steve himself for taking time out from his vacation to go deep into the guitar nerdery with us 🙏🏻
