While being HIGHLY underrated, Oz Fox is SURELY in the EXACT same league as George Lynch, Zacch Wilde, Randy Rhodes and ALL the rest! (And Mike ain't too shabby neither!)
Oz is most definitely a guy whose humility & character screams "I'm no rock star" like no other guitar virtuoso, perhaps in all of recorded music history. I got to hear him play several hours prior to shows in NY, as well as several more in Pittsburgh, PA. I worked the old Civic Arena in Pittsburgh, as an usher, which afforded me the opportunities to see/ hear many of the all-time greats play both live shows, as well as also hearing many practice & 'tune-up' multiple guitars. From the earliest of my memories,(Frank Marino/ Carlos Santana/ Gary Moore/ Jimmy Page), to more up to date musings, (Eddie Van Halen/ Tipton/ George Lynch/ DeMartini/ & a lot of '80s guys), Ox Fox takes a backseat to nobody I've ever heard. He is incredible!
@@romans323ful Yeah, I talked 2 him and Robert after a show in Lancaster PA. and they were both SUPER cool and down 2 earth cats!😁...They REALLY DO love interacting with their fans.
How cool is it they have their album artwork (even the banned artwork for THWTD) onstage. That is marketing right there. It is also cool how Robert still faces sideways so the audience gets to see him. Visual timekeeper indeed.
Is it just me, or does Robert's snare drum sound kinda awful here? It's like he threw the switch to drop the snare so the snare is like another tom, but then forgot to flip it back to secure the snare to the bottom of the drum. Causing the snare to sound unusually boomy for a snare.
What you are hearing is the extremely loud audio recorded through a cellphone mic. The mic, which has an amplifier in circuit, when ambient audio is loud should reduce the automatic gain control (AGC). In this cas it can't reduce the AGC any lower so when the audio level is too loud the mic clips because its being overdriven. In this case the snare is too loud which causes the mic to clip which ends in distortion in the audio recording.
David Lee who?? Michael sounds WAY better than David ever could. And yes, Ozzy is killing on guitar I've come to expect nothing less over the years. I love this band!
Great video thanks for posting.. but there's like a law I believe that when Crazy Train is being played the camera must stay on the guitarist 100% of the song.. just sayin'.. :)
Awesome. Oz blazes through the Van Halen like it’s nothing. Robert Sweet is not the most technically advanced drummer but dude is solid and keeps excellent time.
I heard sometime ago that he does it so the audience can see him play, thus the nickname "the visual timekeeper". If this is true it makes sense as some people who go to the shows are drummers and would like to see the drummer as well as the other band members.
Little cell phone microphone becomes saturated by how loud the sound is. Ive been to several Stryper gigs and Robert's drum have always sounded awesome.

Who the hell is zacch wilde? You douche
@@cdgr.repair Well EXSQUEEZE the hell outta ME and my HORRIBLE spelling error 'Mr. ZAKK WYLDE!'🤨🖕
Michael Sweet is fantastic guitarist. Id say, he's on the same level as oz fox.
Oz Fox Musical Genius along with Michael Sweet. Unmatched Duo Of All Time!
Oz Fox. Pure guitar genius and spot on. Randy Rhodes is smiling down
This band always puts everything into each performance. So underrated. Love them !
Very well said!!!
Can we give Robert some love, he’s always killing it on drums. God I love this band. Always giving 110%.
Agree with you 100%, Chris. Will probably see STRYPER next month. Thanks for watching and for commenting. Stay tuned...
Fun!
Didn't know they did covers like this.
Yup. Was a great show. Got another STRYPER cover floating around on my channel if you dig for it.
Ck out covering

Amazing as always... They are great.
They're playing the same exact venue next month, Randall. You can bet me and my new 4K camera will be there!
Great!!!! I love Stryper and these tunes!!!!
Agree 100%, Vivian. Got plenty of Stryper on my Channel. Check it out when you have a few. All the best.....
I LOVE YOU STRYPER😍🤗💪🙌
I saw them a few weeks earlier in Pensacola Florida on this tour. They rocked it!
STRYPER rocks! Check out my channel for videos from other shows...including 1 from just a month ago.
Am I the only one that thinks Van Halen brothers should be calling Michael Sweet, check out aint talking about love. Lightning stiking 3 times
better not forget his Ipad lol
They still rock
Great performance and great covers. I'll bet everyone in heaven was head banging . 🤟😎
Glad you liked it, Matt. Rock on, my friend.
Oz Fox is a woefully underrated guitarist.
100% true. Oz is exceptionally talented and gets overlooked due to his Christian beliefs.
Is it just me, or does Robert's snare drum sound kinda awful here?
It's like he threw the switch to drop the snare so the snare is like another tom, but then forgot to flip it back to secure the snare to the bottom of the drum.
Causing the snare to sound unusually boomy for a snare.
Well your right , but yea the sound is muffled what you expect when all the sound is coming through a phone speaker
What you are hearing is the extremely loud audio recorded through a cellphone mic. The mic, which has an amplifier in circuit, when ambient audio is loud should reduce the automatic gain control (AGC). In this cas it can't reduce the AGC any lower so when the audio level is too loud the mic clips because its being overdriven. In this case the snare is too loud which causes the mic to clip which ends in distortion in the audio recording.
YES! I was hoping they'd do a Panama cover
David Lee who?? Michael sounds WAY better than David ever could. And yes, Ozzy is killing on guitar I've come to expect nothing less over the years. I love this band!
Couldn't have said it better myself, Chris. Check out my Channel for more STRYPER, my friend!
Great video thanks for posting.. but there's like a law I believe that when Crazy Train is being played the camera must stay on the guitarist 100% of the song.. just sayin'.. :)
I love Stryper so much
Seeing them again in MAR. Stay tuned to my Channel. This time I'll have video in real 4K to enjoy and blast!
Thanks for posting!!
Can I say aww yeah !!!
🇦🇷Very Good Michael "!!!🧔✌🇦🇷
Stryper rock rool
Awesome. Oz blazes through the Van Halen like it’s nothing. Robert Sweet is not the most technically advanced drummer but dude is solid and keeps excellent time.
Where do u get that about Robert??
Great band solid guitars
Yes sir. Saw them earlier this month and still sharp. Check out my channel for another long STRYPER video.
What's up brother? Why didn't the bass player get any camera time? Does the new guy look that hideous?
Probably because he wasn't Tim Gaines, they wanted to keep the original members of the band jn the shot.
LOL 😆
Yeah.... hey yall why did the original bass player leave?
Stryper los queremos en chile
Oz is badass!!
I love Oz what a magnificent guitar monster. Hope heé recovered from his cancer surgery.
STRYPER RULES !!! 👍🏻✝️👍🏻
Agree 100%, David. Another show coming up next month in Poughkeepsie. Guess who will be there with camera in hand? And 4K this time around, too!
So THAT'S what the Ipad is for, hahaha
We Will Rock You!!!! ⚡⚡⚡
Yep
U guys where around. That's cool. 🤘
Although it’s a little disappointing that he generalized Crazy Train. That song has a very specific drum part.
michael rocks!!!
Ozzzzzzz 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
shoot that snare and up guitar volume
Nothing wrong with the snare it's the phone it's being recorded on it's too loud and speaker is distorted
Wow!
Han ido a Panamá y no a Guatemala 🤟🥺🥺🥺😭😭
stryper is a awesome band, one of my favorites and robert is a great drummer but i don't like the sound of these drums here
Why does the drummer sit sideways I dont get it?
I heard sometime ago that he does it so the audience can see him play, thus the nickname "the visual timekeeper". If this is true it makes sense as some people who go to the shows are drummers and would like to see the drummer as well as the other band members.
cuz..he.
wants..to
@@adamgrigsby6798 Thank you Adam for telling me the obvious, I was hoping you could expound on something more profound.
John Jumper vamistle1 has the correct answer.
Because he's the original "Visual Time Keeper".
uh...anyone else notice that Robert's snare sounds like a hubcap?
I was thinking that the whole time.
Rock n" Roll
🌟
That's no drama has a funny sound to it or maybe it's too loud or the tone, I'm not sure what it is. But other than that the band sounds really good.
i wonder if bill and hillary went too the concert they are from poughkeepsie
I somehow don't think they're STRYPER fans. Could be wrong, but uhhhh...
@jukeboxhero26
I laughed too hard. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Brandon Rogers Amen to that!
The Clinton’s live in Pleasantville not Poughkeepsie. Two VERY different places.
I dont understand the joke yall? I have heard of poughkeepsie. But what's it about again?
Why?? Will Ozzy now play “Reason for the Season?” I’ve been a Stryper fan since the beginning, this just seems like we’ve been bamboozled.
and you leave out a world famous bass player ?? LOL
Roberts drums sound like crap for some reason .
Little cell phone microphone becomes saturated by how loud the sound is. Ive been to several Stryper gigs and Robert's drum have always sounded awesome.
