I'm javier from Uruguay and I went to Buenos Aires to attend to this amazing show... I didn't think eric's show was so good (I'm glad I was wrong), john and joe fulfilled my expectations with their speed, style and amazing melodies... when I was there watching joe's performance, I was cursing 'cause 40 minutes had passed and my favorite songs weren't there... but then joe start to play "summer song", one of my favorite songs, and after that "always with me, always with you" my very favorite song... at the end of this song, joe start to play around with some notes (as he always do at live performances) and he pointed to the other side of the stage. I thaught it was the rithm guitar player soloing a while... but no! it was petrucci playing with satriani!!! my jaw fell down.... I was speechless... I did know they play together at the end... but I didn't see it coming... it was great!!! after that eric appear and they jam together for another 50 minutes, I guess. Thank you guys... and next time come to Uruguay, ok? bye javier

NO WORDS. INCREDEBLE. JUST AMAZING. Johnson's show was absolutely great, it totally sorprised me! Manhattan made Luna Prak shout as hell. Petrucci, no words, a truck's engine. Just amazaing, Mike is the absolute best drum player in the planet, GREAT. And Satch, what can I say? I was one of the kids who stand in fron row during the Vodoo Child!! You're GOD. The G3 was the best, I really liked it. THANK YOU AND PLEASE COME BACK!

The three of you were perfect. I went to the show with my father and he couldn't believe what his ears were listening. The performance of Eric was amazing I was hoping to see him with such entusiasm and he really impressed me with very nice versions of TRADEMARK; DESERT ROSE and the amazing CLIFFS OF DOVER; Im still shocked with the performance of John Petrucci his show was relly exciting, I only know two songs of his solo carreer (Glasgow Kiss and Damage Control) from the G3 live in Tokyo. Im pretty big fan of Dream Theater and I Knew what was about to hear and see. After the show Im gonna buy Suspended Animation to recreate on my house some of the magic i saw on the Luna Park Concert. What can i say about Satch its my favourite guitar player ever, I have all of his albums, and i been listening to his music since 1992, I saw him on stage four times, Two by himself and two with the G3 Tour, and he always was perfect. I ranked the show with a 9, cause I hope another playlist, maybe Luminous Flesh Giants, If or songs like Ceremony or The crushing day or any song that I never see him play on Stage, although he was amazing as always. The G3 jam was really really good, specially Red House. Maybe in the future you could play another cover in the Jam, like Led zeppelin-s songs or Black Sabbath-s. Anyway I think it was one the best shows I have ever seen, and I hope you to come as soon as posible. Thank you for make this beautiful music and allow us to enjoy it.

This G3 Show was absolutely awesome, this is the first time I saw you, and I got very excited and it was very emotional. Satch, you really rock!, you're an outstanding Showman, I really enjoyed the "extravaganza" and I hope to see you again the next year.. I'm still shocked, I don't have any words to describe exactly how did I felt that superb show. Joe you're an excelent Guitarrist and Person!

One of your Biggest fans.^ Diego -Mosca-

It was the first time I went to a G3 show and it was amazing. The three performances were absolutelly perfect, the songs where so good choosen. When Petrucchi put the lights down and start playing "Lost without you" was so incredible. I have not words to talk about Joe, he has a great feeling about the guitar and a great creativity too, I shouted every time he finishes a song and I clap too. Come back soon, Argentina show you how much like a show like this! :) manu.

Wow! Wow! Wow! This show was really excelent! I went with two friends from Uruguay, and we are as shocked as by a religious experience! WE HAVE SEEN GODS DO EXIST! Eric johnson: He really surprised me. He played much better than in the G3 Live in concert DVD! John Petrucci: Uuuhhhhh!!!!! This was no surprise because he is my best guitar player in the world! The things that really became a surprise were the songs he chose to play! I was hoping to see Jaws of Life, Glasgow Kiss, and Damage Control. But I never imagined he would really play Wishful Thinking (One of my favourits songs from his solo Album), and least Lost Without You, they were really amazing!Curve is maybe the one song I like less but was still incredible to see it live! GREAT PERFOMANCE JOHN! And what a strange Look! I thought I was going to see him like in the Live in Tokyo DVD, with short hair and shirt, and he appeared with long hair and dressed in black like a real Rocker! Joe Satriani: You have won my respect again! I didnt like your perfomance at all in the DVD Live in Tokyo, and wasn't hoping to see such a great one here but...YOU WERE JUST GEORGEUS!!! It couldn't be any better! the Songs you chose were the best you could! The Extremist, Flying in a Blue Dream, Boogie, Super Colossal, Just Like Lightnin', etc...and the Ending with Always With Me...was incredible...i loved to see the JAM starting with the ending of one of your SONGS! The JAM: AMAZING as they always are...what else can I say!

The show was great. Noone can say otherwise. It was better organized than the 2004 G3 (good thing they put screens by the stage). JOHNSON: Too bad his set wasn't a bit longer. Besides that, the performance was amazing, very proffesional. PETRUCCI: Started very powerful with "Jaws of Life" (good choice) and kept that energy through all of his set. The guitar was a bit too loud and sometimes you couldn't fully appreciate what he was playing. SATRIANI: Incredible performance!! Just what I've got used to see every since I first saw him in 2000. Perfect start with "Flying in a Blue Dream", which is my favourite song, but didn't play songs from Crystal Planet (that wasn't very good). G3 JAM: Very good, specially "Red House". Sometimes the three guitars mixed and the sound wasn't very clear. I think Gran Rex theatre is better prepared for these kind of concerts 'cause it has a much better acoustic, but not so big as Luna Park. Ok... that's all from me regards to the show. Hope to see another one soon... Thanks for the magic, Satch!!!

OUJAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! The best joe show a ever saw!!! I can write but a cant speak for the shouts!!!! Eric was great, show his talent in desert rose and manhattan, and his tecnike is fabouluos!! Petruchi was demolition man, the people really liked his solos!! incredible speed and power!!!! & satch. what can i say? he probes is the n º 1, no failes, no errors, simple perfect playing and great connection with the people, who scream and jumps every time joe wanted!!! Crow chant was great, the extremist, flying, etc. etc. and the jam was really great, but joe probes he can play better that the others guys, the melody and the felling is in his veins and his head. Joe you really are the best guitarrist i ever saw!!!! you really are the GOD of guitar!! This show i ever remembered because i can stand steps to my hero! and i can have one of your picks (i always gonna treasured). The bad things was some problems with eric sound & john, but satriani was perfect. G3 forever!!!
