Listening to it, there are only minute (but extremely hard to find) differences between this and Joe Satriani. Simply amazing craftsmanship!
I tried looking under your favorites to see what other Ibanez legends you idolize, but alas, only 3. (Although Eddie Van Halen aint bad, my friend...not too bad at all...)
You are my new favorite Audio Portal artist, and by listening to this piece, it's inspired me to pick my bass back up again; I sort of lost motivation what-with the working my ass off to cover rent, so in my free time I'll either doodle or come here...listening to stringed melodies like this inspire me to want to play like that someday.
...Well, I better get crackin'...I'm gonna go listen to the rest of your work, Add you as my number 1 fav, and save up money to by new string. (...I also hadn't been playing 'cause I need new strings crazy-mad-style. lol)
So yes...voting 5, a job well done, Metalcan...now go and update your favorite music section!

Thanks a lot for the nice review, glad I could inspire you to pick up your bass again! A really cool piece to play on bass is the Love Thing part from the bass solo by Stu Hamm. It's from Joe Satriani Live in San Francisco. If you haven't heard it you can check out my song Stu Jam. It's a cover but I played it on guitar, and it's not perfect, but it's the same notes as you would play on a bass. I think it's pure awesome (Stu's version not mine :)).
Yeah I do need to get my favorites in order. I hadn't noticed that you could do that yet, but I'm on it now. ;)
Thanks for voting 5, much appreciated!
