Salutations!
How was your week? I spent mine righting some wrongs on BioShock 2 before heading out to a house party for a little bit. After some time spent cavorting and catching up with my uni friends the usual Guitar Hero-related shenanigans occurred. Without blowing my own trumpet (there’s an iPhone app for that!), I’m a bit of a Guitar Hero whizz. So, naturally, comparisons between myself and someone else began to fill the room…
Now that we have started getting to know each other, I feel that I have to address something.
OK, here goes…
I AM NOT STEVE VAI!
Well, I am, just not the Steve Vai.
OK, to some people, maybe I am the Steve Vai.
What I’m saying is; I am not Steve Vai the famous rock guitarist. Here are a list of reasons why you shouldn’t confuse me with him:
- I cannot play the guitar (although I make sweet music on my PS3!)
- I am not in a rock band (except on Rock Band of course)
- I am not white (!!!)
- I do not have long hair
- Steve Vai has toured with David Lee Roth – I don’t even know who he is! (Quick Google… I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO HE IS!)
OK, you get the idea. However, in researching my namesake I discovered that he started his own record label exclusively for “artists that have attained the highest performance level on their chosen instruments.”
With this in mind, I would like to refer Mr Vai to my online slots account…
As a tribute to Steve Vais the world over, I’d like to dedicate this YouTube video of the man with The World’s Greatest Name:
Rock on and, until next time, Don’t Stop BeSteveing!
