I recall when George played in my home town several years back and was signing autographs afterwards. A guitar player buddy of mine was so starstruck and nervous about meeting George that he (my buddy) was in the bathroom throwing up because he was so nervous. I don't think he ever worked up the nerve to go talk to George who is one of the nicest, most humble guys you could ever meet guitar player or otherwise.
ok so anyone notice alexi covers up his shirt after he makes that comment about the sweeds its like he thought wowbest do this before goerge looks to bad in this vid haha rock on guys your both amazing an alexi your my #2 favorite guitarist gotta give it 2 DIME rip dude
lol God dude, what I wouldn't give to sit down and jam with Alexi; or hell just sit around and hang out with him. He seems like one of those guys you can just sit down and have a conversation with about anything or someone that you can just jam with; and then he'd start shredding and make your feel like shit about your playing. lol
Lynch giving praise to Mattias IA Eklundh of Freak Kitchen was A+! I'm shocked Alexi didn't know of him. He was the first artist Steve Vai signed to his Favored Nations label for good reason. Lynch has 100 times the signature voice on guitar over Alexi. So many Malmsteen and Gilbert clones but they're all really great players indeed including Alexi.
woow is he really talking about jan akkerman from focus how do they know them!!!! my mom loved it i've got some lp's from thys van leer really weird but hey we love alexi!!!
George what bout john McLaughlin ,Larry Coryell, A. HOLDSWORTH, STeve Hackett, Steve Howe, Robert Fripp, A. Lifeson and to Me the greatest guitarist ever Frank Zappa. Surprised George didn't bring up some of these guys. To me there the most influential guitars and coolest genre there ever was. I wouldn't say there from the same genre some are more progressive rock and others are progressive jazz but its progressive music nonetheless.
I don't get it. Gerorge is huge. He works out and all that yet he still smokes. I am not against it bceause I also do but Its kind of hard to train when you are out of beath from the smoke
Elise miller I only like to hear what guitarist speak through their guitar. You're right but Lynch has amazing tone, rhythm and gut wrenching lead work like only a crazy mind could come up with. His 80's work is phenomenal really.
hahah ja lynch dacht uit zweden hahah die denkt dat alle goeie gitaristen uit zweden komen xD Het is omdat mijn vader platen heeft van Jan akkerman anders had ik hem denk ik ook niet gekend hoor
RIP Alexi
RIP brother
Lynch thinks Netherlands and Finland are both in Sweden. Amazing.

lol Poor Lynch, he's mistaking Sweden for Norway & Finland (like right there on Alexi's shirt). It happens.
Jan Akkerman, Focus, Dutch band ! Very nice, respect.
ok so anyone notice alexi covers up his shirt after he makes that comment about the sweeds its like he thought wowbest do this before goerge looks to bad in this vid haha rock on guys your both amazing an alexi your my #2 favorite guitarist gotta give it 2 DIME rip dude
they both seem realli chill
I think the whole time Alexi is just thinking "I'm from Finland, not fucking Sweeden."
alexi is badass
2:45 Poor Alexi ): lol
Nice, to hear these guys give credit to Jan Akkerman and Focus! Highly underrated. And they are Dutch, George and Alexi! Get your shit sorted :P
lol God dude, what I wouldn't give to sit down and jam with Alexi; or hell just sit around and hang out with him.

2:45
happens to me all the time, smacked lips, same hand movements, awkward face and have to listen to someone who wont let me talk
4:14 Haha I guess he doesn't know Jake E Lee was chosen over Lynch
yeah, that was a good Swedish comment accidentally karma jajajja
FFFFFFIIIIIIINNNNNNNIIIIIIISSSSSSHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obviously I watched this video only because of Alexi... we all miss you badly 🖤
Lynch's ignorance towards Alexi gets to my nerves.
slaughterofthesoul95 he is american after all
it’s not even just about the country
How does a high profile company like Guitar Center misspell heroes in a video title?

George didn't mention Vai!!!!
To all of the peple responding below: they think Jan Akkerman is Swedish or Danish... He's DUUUUTCCHHH!!!! xD
oh focus!! focus! yea yea!
does Lynch think Alexi is swedish? lo he's finnish
look his face, he really dislike that dude.
alexi once gave me a red eric johnson jazz iii when i was getting a hate crew shirt signed.and now i play better.
Alexi ftw :D
i wonder how many people really think of george as a hero
Alot! XD That Guy is an impressiv Player!
Pretty much everyone that grew up with 80's metal I would think. He was really a force of nature back then
i sure don’t compared to alexi
And freaking ridiculous at playing as well. Hocus Pocus is still badassery.
@MagusGod HAha:D CooOoooL!
Randy Rhoads YES!!!

HOLLAAAAAND, REPRESENT!
what ever he does? what the fuck..alexi is like the greatest player ever.and lynch seems to not know him..
So many people bothered about lynch getting Alexi's nationality wrong XD
@MagusGod OK and what does it mean?:)
George looks like Harrison Ford here!!
laihos accent is really on and off. haha it sounds cool though/
I don't get it. Gerorge is huge. He works out and all that yet he still smokes. I am not against it bceause I also do but Its kind of hard to train when you are out of beath from the smoke
lynch totally thinks alexi is swedish haha
Swedish bands are the best :D At the Gates, In Flames, Dark Tranquility,
etc.
lol
Jan Akkerman.. is he Denish?
NO DUDE!!! he's DUTCH!!

I will probably never listen to Lynch
Then you probably miss something
I doubt it, after how he is treating Alexi.
Elise miller I only like to hear what guitarist speak through their guitar. You're right but Lynch has amazing tone, rhythm and gut wrenching lead work like only a crazy mind could come up with. His 80's work is phenomenal really.
haha ja maar jan akkerman is ook pretty famous
I miss you Alexi. George lynch is overrated af
@bonfirejovi He's a joker alright.
I was just about to say the opposite...
hahah ja lynch dacht uit zweden hahah die denkt dat alle goeie gitaristen uit zweden komen xD Het is omdat mijn vader platen heeft van Jan akkerman anders had ik hem denk ik ook niet gekend hoor
