Satch/Vai Tour Wrap-Up

View Joe's Satch/Vai Photo Gallery »

"The #SatchVai Tour shows were so much fun, so exhilarating, and so deeply emotional for me. Standing next to Steve Vai every night , improvising just like when we were kids in my backyard, was positively cathartic and transformative. It's hard to put into words the unique connection Steve and I have. When we put on our guitars and start making music together it's like a time-warp and a hyper-present all rolled into one continuous "now". Hugs and thanks to all our stellar band members, crew members, local crews, management, agents, accountants, doctors and all the service providers that took care of us when we would roll into their town. More hugs and thanks to our fans who have given us the greatest gift, their attention and their loyalty. I am forever humbled and grateful."
