Why can I not watch a single video with a guitar like Vai without having the comments section full of idiots crying that its not music just because its not something they like. Vai and Mattias are both masters of their craft and deserve some respect.
+Anders olsson you obviously don't know what it takes to be a master guitarist. Vai is definitely the Master guitarist of today, and every guitarist YOU think is the master guitarist of today will humbly admit it.
wrong. it never was a competition more so a learning process where one copped of the other and music evolved. there never was a musician that claimed to do 1 thing better then the other. but yeah they tried. it's more so a ...what if i try this or that... jimi hendrix and ed van halen for instance where innovaters of guitar technique and both didn't aply any music theorie to that and rather let the soul speak and roll. a lot of blues mucisians did that also., it's a learning process and not a game... if it is a competition or a game, where's the winner then???. and who's the definition of a ultimate guitar player???. for you it could be steve vai for me perhaps hendrik and maybe next week ritchie blackmoore. see where i'm going. exactly. rather have a friendly fight then a competition.

Que increíble verlos en ese concierto tocando y complementándose 🤭🤠👍 dos genios de la música del ruido de la técnica y de cualquier sonido que se les ocurra crear hacen canciones espectaculares
Funny how all the negative comments come from people who probably don't have 10% the talent of SV & IA, and yet when I see people with real talent, all they seem to do is celebrate other people's talent, and try to promote and encourage it in any way they can. Funny, eh......?
Buckethead, Mattias "IA" Eklundh, Ron Thal aka "Bumblefoot", Guthrie Govan, Christophe Godin, Tosin Abasi and why not Steve Vaï in a jam, this should be f*****g awesome !
I think that mattias is the best technically talented guitarist in the world. Jimi Hendrix was revolutionary, much more than both of these guys, but technically unable to play at their level. Mattias is just batshit cray cray and that is why it is difficult to compare him to other artists. Steve is a close second but Mattias man. Jesus. Best guitarists in the world: Mattias Eklundh Steve Vai Joe Satriani Yngwie Malmsteen John Petrucci Uli Jon Roth Iron Maiden's guitarist (Something Murray. Pls no hurt. I am forgetful) Buckethead Not in that order necessarily but technicality wise, these guys are the elite.
+CarlostGaming I love Matthias and his talent is huge,but you see things wrong,there is no best guitarist in the world,but many great guitarist...for blues lover BB King is the best ,for 80 s fan eddy van halen ,...slash,vai satriani ,angus young,Malmsteen,knoffler ,petrucci,Morello and so on and so on...the list is huge many great guitarist but there is no best ,as what is best for you may not be for other...anyway I think matthias is definitively best in what he does.
This wasn't a contest. But Steve did not leave mattias shine. Mattias shone on account of himself. Steve would not Decrease its performance only to Promote mattias, Thus decreasing the quality of the show. It does not make no sense!
+Bey Zam Yeah he is clearly faster ! It's not race cars you stupid fucking idiot ! "Most people wouldn't know music if it came up and bit them in the ass" You sure qualify as one of those incredibly stupid humans ! FYI - This clip has absolutely zero to do with what is called music. It's merely finger gymnastics !
Bey Zam Hey Herpes Genitalis -You wouldn't know music if it came up and bit you in the ass ! You're too young and stupid to have ny knowledge about anything at all !
+Mikael Andersson Does it have notes and a time signature? Then its real music. Get out of here with this "its not real music" crap. Both of them have written some great songs.
We haven't heard of him as much as Vai because Mattias didn't play for Alcatrazz, Roth, Whitesnake, G3, and tour for over 25 years promoting his own material. www.vai.com/vaiography/ That's it, in a nutshell.
Chickenbeek How does your statement have anything to do with my observation? Picasso's father decided that he would give up painting when Picasso was 13 years old because he felt his son was already a better painter than him. And obviously, there would be no Picasso without his father.
Chickenbeek No! I was just using Picasso's father as an example of a 'student' being able to surpass his 'teacher'. And thanks for disagreeing with me without insulting me, a rare thing here on youtube! Peace :-)
Va i He...e va denna spelningen? Så jävla förbannad nu så jag slåss i min hjärna, fullt slagsmål! Nu ser jag..."Trägårn" 2012... FAAAAAAAAN, detta är ekot!!!!!!
Steve Vai sounds like the good old melodic Vai.. but Mattias' playing is so unpredictable and unique. I really like it
its like they're talking to each other in some alien language! superb!
Amazing, Mattias is out of this world.
Why can I not watch a single video with a guitar like Vai without having the comments section full of idiots crying that its not music just because its not something they like. Vai and Mattias are both masters of their craft and deserve some respect.
+JThadd Dude -The idiot is YOU !
Nah, I am going to agree with the other guy.
+Meter Pangs Nope, he's right
Vai only cares abt his reputation, only problem that he is not even Close to be a master guitarist today...
+Anders olsson you obviously don't know what it takes to be a master guitarist. Vai is definitely the Master guitarist of today, and every guitarist YOU think is the master guitarist of today will humbly admit it.
....and the Winner is........
The listener😀🌅
I couldn't help but smile the whole time! Amazing talents! :)
I'm Vai's huge fan but this Mattias guy is equally amazing!
I think Mattias is great, and he's on top form here
agree
Are you fucking kidding me ? Off the fucking charts !
This is awesome. It seems like Steve is actually a bit inspired by Mattias here trying to match his style a bit in this
music isn't a competition. it's about fun, an that's what they have. how the heck can you compare guitarist a to b anyhow. totally diffrent guitarist.
Music is competition, that the reason they have:-
Music Theory.
Ear Training.
Metronome.
Guitar Idol.
Guitarist Player Voting.
....
etc.
wrong. it never was a competition more so a learning process where one copped of the other and music evolved. there never was a musician that claimed to do 1 thing better then the other. but yeah they tried. it's more so a ...what if i try this or that... jimi hendrix and ed van halen for instance where innovaters of guitar technique and both didn't aply any music theorie to that and rather let the soul speak and roll. a lot of blues mucisians did that also., it's a learning process and not a game... if it is a competition or a game, where's the winner then???. and who's the definition of a ultimate guitar player???. for you it could be steve vai for me perhaps hendrik and maybe next week ritchie blackmoore. see where i'm going. exactly. rather have a friendly fight then a competition.
It's not a competition, it's a language. It's to communicate ideas and feelings in an artistic way
@@irmaztamal21 Art is only a matter of taste..!! 😉👍
As form of art and and sport, it implies competition, is a human way of expression, we humans are competitive, it is only natural most human stuff have human stuff... Biological stuff, stuff... Is life
All the best IA....still to roll on the golden wheels
I will always be your fan......the holy guitar god
WoW! This is absolutely awesome!
two legends. two monsters
they sound great together!
Mattias is better actually..
he wouldn't say that
yeah no contest ,just two of the best guitarists ive ever heard
IF you want to get into Freak Kitchen start with the Move Album
or the Dead Soul Man
I always thought Vai was more interesting than Satriani because of his crazy use of the whammy bar.
But Eklundh pretty nails it too.
the winner is the audience
🔥🔥🔥 WOOOOOOOOOW!! Mr. Eklundh absolutely on fire!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Matias and Vai Jamming it out.. Gold.
that was awesome!!!! thanks for posting this vid
man i love this video, must have watched it 35,819 times
Well, I replied so you have to watch it one more time.
Thanks for posting this video!
Now you know that Mattias is a lot far better guitarist....
He left steve vai speechlessssssss
Masters!.........that's all I've got.
wow...what an awesome jam!
Id get another mortgage to watch Vai and Eklundh gig together. Mindblowing.
Saw Vai 2 days earlier in Sthlm. Wish I´d seen Mattias there aswell! :D
I'm sorry but Vai was thinking "fuck i wish i could play like that"
Wow! The harpist was rocking, but couldn't hear it. Maybe she should have had a break on this number. Nice to see Steve & Mattias rock out together.

Steve lets Mattias shine. He's letting his guest, and a star on his label be the show. Don't make it a contest... It wasn't.
Gold to see these 2 amesome guys playing together! Specially on a stag I played a year before em in 2011 :D
Nice!! Two freaky players!!
bothe amazing and influential, this comments section is full of college guitar students who literally Know fuck all,
So Eklund can go crazier than Vai in Vais style but musically Vai is way above, it s always musicality.
Buckethead, Mattias "IA" Eklundh, Ron Thal aka "Bumblefoot", Guthrie Govan, Christophe Godin, Tosin Abasi and why not Steve Vaï in a jam, this should be f*****g awesome !
soo coooooool !
This like the guitar battle from 'Crossroads' in real life ❤
Vai like a student of matias ia eklundh for me 😇
Magick
This is the perfect guitar duo.
Awesome improv, wish I could play half as good as either of them.
this is fuckin great, they really complement each other! love it!!!
mattias

UAU, 2 masters!!!
Brutal!!!!
2 of the best and weirdest guitar wizards in the world
ANTOLÓGICO!
Guthrie gets all the praise, but I think Mattias is technically above him. Their improvisational approach is very different, though.
eklundh play the whammy bar is more extreme than vai ... but both are great .. these events are rare, king whammy bar appeared together
awesome! Good job on the recording too!
It must take some balls just to stand next to Vai, jam along and remain 100% cool, not to mention show some skills. Good job IA!
AI is better
ah yes, this strange foreign language called... nerd (but def the coolest kind of nerds)
The Aliens Have Landed
This is so cool 😎
Guitar Magic going on here ! Amazing Musicians ! A1*
IA the great :)
Mattias' eloquence is just amazing! Sorry, Steve.
Why sorry Steve? They both seem to be having good fun
Mestres dos harmônicos e alavancadas!! Muito foda!!
cool !! thanks for share !!!
this is Lucifer versus El Diablo
this is the Overated Guitarist versus the Real Guitar Virtuoso.
Proof we are walking amongst aliens

Mattias win here....
A real eye opener to Steve Vai
+Bey Zam Yeah he is clearly faster !
It's not race cars you stupid fucking idiot !
"Most people wouldn't know music if it came up and bit them in the ass"
You sure qualify as one of those incredibly stupid humans !
FYI - This clip has absolutely zero to do with what is called music.

+Mikael Andersson faster better and a whole lot more :)
Bey Zam Hey Herpes Genitalis -You wouldn't know music if it came up and bit you in the ass ! You're too young and stupid to have ny knowledge about anything at all !
Jonas Bylund You're comparing two sport guitarists dude ! None have written any real music !
+Mikael Andersson Does it have notes and a time signature? Then its real music. Get out of here with this "its not real music" crap. Both of them have written some great songs.
great!
Mattias has ten times the imagination and style of Vai, and yet who's heard of him?
*****
Okay, nine and a half times .....
We haven't heard of him as much as Vai because Mattias didn't play for Alcatrazz, Roth, Whitesnake, G3, and tour for over 25 years promoting his own material.
www.vai.com/vaiography/
That's it, in a nutshell.
Because he is not an american,hehe......

The winner is ?????? MATTIAS !!!!
Yes, indeed he is!
The end...hahahahaha.
Sounds like a cat orgy

Wanna know why the crowd chugs bro chowder? 2 words: sonic lobotomy!
Steve Vai should have never left David Lee Roth...he was more creative back then.....
Boy are you wrong
Me like! :-)
Music is not a contest... but if it were Matthias would would have won the match.
Great
audience too stunned
there would be no "IA" without Vai.
Vai is overated
