Satch-vai 2024 tour.

“The Satch/Vai Tour is happening! I’m so looking forward to sharing the stage with Steve again. Every time we play together it takes me back to when we were teenagers, eating and breathing music every second of the day, pushing, challenging and helping each other to be the best we could be. I guess we’ve never stopped!” - Joe “Touring with Joe is always a pleasure and an honor. He is my favorite guitarist to jam with, and now we have another opportunity to take it to the stage. I feel as though we are both at the top of our game and that the show will be a powerful celebration of the coolest instrument in the world, the electric guitar!” - Steve

Sammy Hagar Announces ‘Best Of All Worlds’ Tour With Joe Satriani

November 14, 2023 —by VHND Leave a Comment

Rock & Roll Hall of Famer SAMMY HAGAR is embarking on the long-awaited “THE BEST OF ALL WORLDS” 2024 tour. Hagar will be joined by rock heavyweights and longtime bandmates MICHAEL ANTHONY (bass, backing vocals), JASON BONHAM (drums) and revealed on Nov 14 on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show that JOE SATRIANI, one of the best guitar players in the world, will complete the band. Produced by Live Nation and featuring special guests Loverboy, the 28-date tour will commence on July 13 in West Palm Beach, FL and will conclude on August 31 in St. Louis, MO. Pre-sales begin on Wednesday, November 15 at 10 am. General on-sale begins Friday, November 17 at 10am local. For tickets and more details, go to RedRocker.com .

“It’s crazy to think that it’ll be 20 years since Mikey and I played these songs with Van Halen on the 04’ Best of Both Worlds Tour,” said Hagar. “With Joe on board, we can take a deeper dive into those years. We’re going to touch on some hits from my entire career but seeing fans old and new really embrace the new collection set off something in Mikey and I. We were at my Birthday Bash in Cabo for my 76th and looked at each other and high fived, like ‘let’s do it.’ We pulled out a couple of them and it was an instant lovefest with the fans from our first riffs. The music we created is going to outlive us all. They deserve to be heard so it’s time we go out and serve the fans that music, while we still can.”

Collectively, Anthony, Satriani and Bonham have played together in nearly every phase of Hagar’s career including Van Halen, Chickenfoot and The Circle, so fans can expect a setlist which draws from some of the biggest rock anthems of the last 4-decades, including, Finish What Ya Started, 5150, Your Love is Driving Me Crazy, Best of Both Worlds, Poundcake, Sexy Little Thing, One Way To Rock, Right Now, Good Enough, Eagles Fly and more. They’ve also enlisted legendary Australian musician, Rai Thistlethwayte on keyboard and backing vocals. The tour represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see this band of brothers deliver one of the most legendary hits-packed live shows of their career.

About Loverboy:

For more than 40 years, Loverboy has been “Working for the Weekend” (and on the weekend), delighting audiences around the world since forming in 1979, when vocalist Mike Reno was introduced to guitar hot shot Paul Dean – both veterans of several bands on the Canadian scene – at Calgary’s Refinery Night Club. Along with Reno and Dean, Loverboy still includes original members Doug Johnson on keyboards and Matt Frenette on drums, with Ken “Spider” Sinnaeve replacing the late Scott Smith on bass.

With their trademark red leather pants, bandannas, big rock sound and high-energy live shows, Loverboy has sold more than 10 million albums, earning four multi-platinum plaques, including the four-million-selling GET LUCKY, and a trio of double-Platinum releases in their self-titled 1980 debut, 1983’s KEEP IT UP and 1985’s LOVIN’ EVERY MINUTE OF IT. Their string of hits includes, in addition to the anthem “Working for the Weekend,” such arena rock staples as “Lovin’ Every Minute of It,” “This Could Be the Night,” “Hot Girls in Love,” “The Kid is Hot Tonite,” “Notorious”, “Turn Me Loose,” “When It’s Over,” “Heaven In Your Eyes” and “Queen of the Broken Hearts.” In September of this year, the group was inducted into Canada’s Walk of Fame in Toronto, ON.

About Sammy Hagar:

For more than four decades, Sammy Hagar has been recognized as one of the best and most accomplished lead singers and songwriters in rock music. From breaking into the industry with the seminal hard rock band Montrose, to his multi-platinum solo career, to his ride as the frontman of Van Halen, Chickenfoot and his latest best-selling supergroup, The Circle, Hagar has amassed 25 Platinum albums on sales surpassing 50 million worldwide. Along his journey, he has set the tone for some of the greatest rock anthems ever written with songs like “I Can’t Drive 55,” “Right Now,” and “Why Can’t This Be Love,” and earned the highest respect of the music industry with a Grammy Award and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Since opening his flagship Cabo Wabo Cantina in 1990, he’s turned a lifelong passion for great food, music and spirits into a thriving and iconic lifestyle brand encompassing restaurants and spirits. A pioneer in the spirits industry, he launched Cabo Wabo Tequila in 1996 and catapulted it into the #2-selling premium tequila brand in the United States. In 2010, Hagar sold his interests in Cabo Wabo Tequila to Gruppo Campari in a 9-figure deal that’s widely credited as the start of the celebrity-owned spirits trend. He now owns an award-winning portfolio of top-shelf spirits and beer that embody that same spirit of Baja beach life and rock ‘n’ roll. They include Sammy’s Beach Bar Rum, a partnership with rock icon Rick Springfield, Santo Spirits, a partnership with tastemaker Guy Fieri, Sammy’s Beach Bar Cocktail Co. and Red Rocker Brewing Co. Never one to hit the brakes, Sammy’s also expanded his successes into publishing, TV, radio and beyond, including five seasons of his hit TV show “Rock & Roll Road Trip with Sammy Hagar” and as host of “Sammy Hagar’s Top Rock Countdown,” a weekly syndicated radio show on 90+ US stations. He’s a #1 NYT bestselling author and his cocktail book, “Sammy Hagar’s Greatest Cocktail Hits,” was awarded the 2023 Independent Publisher Book Awards. He’s also a dedicated philanthropist, donating millions back to local communities through his private non-profit Hagar Family Foundation, and the first Honorary Ambassador to Los Cabos, an honor he was bestowed in 2022 in recognition of his longtime investment in the people and economy of Mexico.

Joe Satriani (born 15 July 1956) is an instrumental guitarist widely recognized as one of the world’s greatest virtuoso performers. He is noted for his highly innovative technical capacity as well as his ability to approximate a variety of styles ranging from blues, jazz, heavy metal, and funk .

Satriani was born in Westbury, New York, US and raised in a neighboring town called Carle Place. He first expressed an interest in playing the drums, but settled on guitar at the age of 14, largely in response to the death of one of his idols and perhaps greatest source of inspiration, Jimi Hendrix. Satriani was a fast learner and 4 years following his decision to pursue guitar he was training under legendary jazz artists such as guitarist Billy Bauer and pianist Lennie Tristano.

Within a few years time Satriani had his own students, one of them being the technically proficient and likeminded artist Steve Vai. Satriani sought out a music career in Berkley, California and made his transition to the city in 1978. In addition to acting as a solo artist he still kept his stint as a teacher alive. A few of his students went on to be highly respected and commercially prominent artists in their own rights, such as Kirk Hammett of Metallica, Kevin Cadogan of Third Eye Blind, and David Bryson of Counting Crows.

One of Satriani’s first immersion in the California music scene was his joining of the San Francisco rock band the Squares. Through this experience he networked with many other musicians one of them being Greg Kihn who eventually invited Satriani to join his band. By this time Satriani already released a self-titled EP as well as his first studio album “Not of This Earth”, which came out through Relativity records and was later reissued on Epic.

Though Satriani was respected within a tight niche community, he was still in commercial obscurity. However all eyes and ears started to fixate on him after Steve Vai (who during this time was ridding off the success of his work with David Lee Roth) spoke glowingly of him in Guitar World Magazine.

Satriani released his breakthrough record “Surfing With the Alien” in 1987, which peaked at No. 29 on the Billboard 200, making it one of the most successful instrumental albums of it’s time. His follow up album “Flying in a Blue Dream” came out in 1989. This release was a critical and commercial hit as well, appearing at No. 23 on the Billboard 200 and earning a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Instrumental Performance. This release has since achieved gold certification and it’s single “One Big Rush” was featured in the Cameron Crowe masterpiece “Say Anything”. In between these albums Satriani released the EP #11 and also accompanied Mick Jagger on a tour of Australia and Japan.

During this period Satriani was topping countless guitar magazines as one of the world’s greatest guitar players; however, he took a brief break from recording and focused his attention on developing signature guitars for the company Ibanez. Sariani returned with his highly anticipated 1992 release “The Extremist”, which became his most popular release to date making its way to No. 22 on the US Billboard Charts. Satriani issued his compilation album “Time Machine” in 1993 and subsequently replaced Richie Blackmore as the guitarist for Deep Purple.

Satriani returned to his solo career a year later and released his 1995 self-titled studio album. Also around this time he initiated the renowned G3 concert tour with Steve Vai. G3 is an annual reoccurring event and has featured incredible talent such as Yngwie Malmsteen, Robert Fripp, John Petrucci, and Steve Morse.

In 1998 Satriani put out “Crystal Planet”, which featured the hit single “Ceremony”. Following this release was “Engines of Creation”, arguably Satriani’s boldest experimentation (featuring elements of electronica and techno).

Satirani churned out a string of high quality releases through out the remainder of the 2000s including “Strange Beautiful Music”, “Is There Love in Space?”, “Super Colossal”, and “Professor Satchfunkilus and the Musterion of Rock”. Satriani rounded off the decade releasing a collaborative recording with Michael Anthony, Sammy Hagar, and Chad Smith under the name Chickenfoot.

Live reviews

Top notch band.

Satriani is a virtuoso and he is an absolute master of his instrument. His show reflects that.

Usually a band would not sound as cohesive live as they do on their studio albums. Joe Satriani and his band on the other hand sounds has full authority of the soundscape. Every note was precise. Plus, all the improvisations were appropriate, not to mention very dynamic.

I got the VIP pass. Met Joe and got him to sign the posters for some of my friends with whom I grew up listening to Satch. The VIP pass took us on stage pre-show. Got to see Joe's tech tuning his guitars, saw his Marshall amps and his gear. Took lots of pics there.

Show started at 8 pm. The live tone was fantastic. Very balanced sound from every instrument.

Mike Kennelly performed an interesting solo halfway through the show. He plays the backing guitars on some of the songs, and even plays guitar solos, sometimes alongside Joe.

Bryan Beller is a unique bassist. His chemistry with Joe is great. It becomes obvious that he is a great support.

Marco Minneman played a solo as well. I am not a drummer, but would love to go to a workshop of his if he ever did any.

Stage lighting is another big highlight. Spectacular. The production assistant Jeff told me how they have 9 crews working on the set, plus another 7 from the venue who setup everything in 3 hours, and pack it up in an hour or 2 for the next show. That's a lot of work.

What's important is band chemistry. They're very dynamic on stage, solid performers. They all have such a mature and professional approach to their love of music, it's humbling. They're pushing the boundaries of the definition of rock for sure. It's [rock music] not all about sex, drugs, or Satanism. It's very dynamic, cultured, and definitely accomplished.

Report as inappropriate

As always here comes joe shining on the stage with his charming charisma giving you the blues rock - hard rock tunes of your live using his favorite axes the Ibanez pluged into marshall tube head amp running through marshall cabinet adding joe's playing skills to deliver sounds you will never forget... the show was awesome full of energy and positive attitudes from the very beginnings to the last minute of it ,the opening band was as cool and tasty as the beer i was holding in my hand during the show .. band members were a bunch of the best musicians we can find in our world today we've got Bryan Beller on bass and Marco Minnemann on drums(if you haven't seen these two yet! then go check the aristocrats band) and the amazing Mike Keneally which will be a part of Joe satiriani's G4 experiment along with Paule Gilbert and andy timmons , beside that, this guy can play almost anything from amazing fills and thrills on keyboard to a capturing guitar chops and solos very amazing . in general there was a sweet vibe running through the air ,the mood was set on ROCK-ON mode the audience was cheering and enjoying best music, you will defiantly leave at the end of the show with a smile on your face and a look of satisfaction in your eyes ,and that's my friends tells everything.

I saw Joe at the Fargo Theatre on the 17th of Apr. It was a kickass show! I had back stage meet & greet as well. the event staff was very polite and accommodating. We got to see the back stage set-up, including all of the axes Joe was using during the tour, as well as song lists, pedal set-ups, etc. The show itself was amazing! Joe played flawlessly as usual(although, he'd probably say differently), and played all the greats! The new songs are amazing as well, and I can't wait to see what he has in store for the future. Joe was extremely friendly and easy to talk to. We talked about all kinds of things for at least five minutes. He was that way with all of the fans that were at the meet & greet. Always willing to sign whatever you had, as well as pictures with the man himself. Joe is and always has been a class act. I'll continue to enjoy and revel in his artistic genius, and see him whenever, where ever I can. Rock on Joe!

Amazing show! Joe left me speechless! Only a few criticisms. Almost three hours of deafening guitar was fun but it became grinding after a while, it would've been nice to have it broken up with the occasional vocal. The acoustics of The Danforth aren't the best and the sound became muddled and Joe's guitar work occasionally became lost. After seeing so many pyrotechnic showcases I would generously call "concerts" it was refreshing to see a simple straight up show that showcased some of the best musicianship I've seen in a very long time. And after seeing the on-going feud called "Van Halen" it was also great to see a group of musicians having the time of their life together and an artist absolutely loving what he does. Joe was downright exuberant! I would recommend this show to anyone who loves watching brilliant musicians create unforgettable music together. Great fucking show!!

I traveled from Athens-Greece to attend this concert but I was bit disapointed. When I go to listen to Joe Satriani's music I expect, first of all, to have a clear and delicate sound of his guitar. Joe Satriani is not simply a lead guitarist of a rock group, but he is the only reason why somebody goes to one of his concerts expecting, most of all, to listen to his music and enjoy his guitar techniques.

Unfortunately, the sound was very loud, even harsh sometimes, and on top of that the sound adjustment of the lead guitar, the bass and the drums was at the same level. How is it possible the bass and the drums to cover Joe Satriani's lead guitar ??? All musicians were really excellent, but that doesn't mean that they must be equally tuned. When they all play together on stage they support Joe Satriani, they cannot perform at an equal basis.

Best regards,

Dimitrios Panagiotopoulos

Had a "BLAST" at the show last night! The venue and especially the event staff were phenomena! This is my third time at The Fox, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate going to that venue!

I always have a GREAT time at The Fox; from the acoustics, staff, lighting, bar, and sound are always top notch and it NEVER disappoints! Money well spent and any opportunity to go,

The 2-28 Joe Satriani show was AMAZING! 30 years... WOW!! "Surfing with the Shockwave" Very well produced, tight set(s), you heard me right people! Joe played 2 sets and brought the house down!

Going to see Generation Axxe at The Fox in April. Life is good.

Joe still has it! At first, my plan was to be near to the stage for the first song in order to take pictures, and then leave the crowd... But then he entered, and all that energy (and amazing playing performance, of course) kept me there song after song, for the whole concert. The setlist was his latest album, Unstopable momentum (great work, by the way), and the well known top charts - The must have in order to get the chills... (Before the encore, people around was like "c'mon, I need Summer Song!". Was a great experience, and even after a long, great career, Joe still have the stage energy that moves the crowd.

There was the kick and the engagement from the side of the performers. Not so much from the side of the public though, which I feel a bit ashamed of. Nice movie show displayed behind the musicians, that really helped to visualise the music and feel a different dimension of it. I liked how the musicians were natural and spontaneous. Everything lasted pretty long, I think 2h, including the extra 2 songs at the end. You could see they do enjoy what they do. Pity there was no room for dancing.

Joe is one of those musicians that I could see again and again. The show included many songs from his career all the way back to the early 80's.

His show was fantastic and longer than I expected (two 75 minute sets with a break in between.) I was very surprised to hear Big Bad Moon from Flying in a Blue Dream.

My personal favorites are from Surfing with the Alien. He included several of those songs and some surprises as well.

It was well worth the price of admission.

Joe Satriani has a medium intense show, with a lot of deep solos and some improvisation over the original compositions.

A great gig to see his technics and have fun with the songs. Always playing with good musicians, you should focus on the bassist too.

I'm a Satriani enthusiast as I've been following his career since the first record, so I think he's constantly improving.

Satch will also be hosting nightly live performances with his longtime backing band – comprising drummer Kenny Aronoff, bassist Bryan Beller and keyboardist/vocalist Rai Thistlethwayte – for which he will be joined by his guests.

The four-day event takes place on January 3-7 2023, and will see guest tutors address a range of topics, from songwriting and soloing to gigging, gear and more.

Of the G4’s inception, Satch said, “When I first put together the G3 concerts, it was to create a camaraderie that is often missing in the general day-to-day competition of the music industry.

“From there we came up with the concept of the G4 Experience,” he added. “I didn’t want to do a traditional clinic, just getting up in front of people and giving impersonal lessons to a room full of people – I thought, what can we do that will truly reflect my values as a teacher?

“With the G4 Experience, we create an interactive community where I’m joined by these other stars that have been making amazing music and pushing the art form of guitar forward for decades. From all stylistic approaches and musical walks of life.”

He continued, “We bring together this eclectic mix to show all the different sides of playing guitar. They’re all brilliant musicians with styles that are all over the map. They all have such different jobs, they’ve made millions of people happy with their playing, and yet they do it so differently.”

According to the website, all backline gear is provided, meaning attendees just need to bring their guitars. They will also have access to accommodation, food, and meet and greet sessions with their guitar heroes.

“The G4 Experience is all about the community,” Satriani went on to say. “I can’t state that enough. Everyone is not only there to enjoy the music, they’re trying to learn everything they can.

“There’s a lot of information stored up in this head that I want to give to the fans and I’m very much looking forward to sharing it with everyone who attends.”

I heard Eddie Trunk’s interview with this band. Some things don’t add up. Both Satriani and Michael Anthony said they were contacted by Al AND Dave about the now-aborted tribute show. Wolf has insinuated in numerous interviews that Dave was the reason things never got off the ground. If that were indeed the case, then why were Satch and Mike getting contacted from Al AND Dave? So I have to question Wolf’s version of events and culpability. I know it’s fun and easy to blame Dave for anything that doesn’t work out, but….

Van Halen – the band – may no longer exist, but their dysfunction is alive and well.

Well stated RTunes68.

I will try to see this show August next year. Ticket prices or extortive. Lol, Rock N roll today. Can’t miss out on seeing the Silver Surfer, Mike-Anthony and Sam. Sure to hope that at least Alex shows up. Wishful thinking.

When I saw the stern clips I realized how great sammy still sounds he is 76 freaking yrs old ! Mike can still hit those amazing backing vocal high parts too- I think this will be a great show ! Satch and bonham wow ,and they are coming to my area so I will be at this show!!!

I just saw Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Evening Thursday night, it was surreal!! Totally fkn awesome, as I expected! Well how could it not be? Jason had the best teacher in the world – his daddy, the legendary John Bonham!

I want to talk about Hagar for a minute. The guy is what, 76 years old? He’s a great singer and guitarist. He’s had a stellar career which is still going strong. He had four #1 records with Van Halen. He has a very successful liquor product.

Yet the man still has to rip DLR apart. Why man? What good is it doing to say things over and over like “Dave can’t sing my songs?” And the most recent hub bub about Dave being welcomed to sing one song on the upcoming tour “if he can remember the lyrics.”

I love all eras of Van Halen. But myself, along with many fans, prefer the DLR era over Van Hagar if it came down to a desert island decision. I believe that greater than half of Van Halen fans would feel that way actually. Is Sammy insecure or something? I think his constant bad mouthing of DLR is extremely childish.

I’m not sticking up for DLR or defending DLR. We all know he’s been responsible for a lot of issues over the years. But Dave was and is the better showman. Dave wasn’t as good a singer as Hagar during his prime but make no mistake Dave was a solid singer back in the day. Dave sang with a lot of character and uniqueness which nobody has been able to duplicate. His ad libs in songs like Hot For Teacher (whoahhh!) are little nuances that make many of those tunes from the DLR era memorable. I can’t think of any Hagar era tune that is memorable just because of Hagar’s voice. I think of Ice Cream Man, Panama, Hot For Teacher, Stay Frosty, Happy Trails and many others that are memorable not just because of Eddie, Alex and Mike but also because of the little things Roth did on those tunes that stand out. Hagar is a great/better singer than Roth and had a lot to do with the success of Van Hagar. But at the same time Hagar can’t touch Roth on the complete package. I saw Dave & Sammy when they toured together. Sammy was wearing some ugly yellow pants while barefoot on stage (gross!). Sammy was great but Dave totally blew him off the stage.

So Sammy, if you’re reading this, know that I love and respect you. But we’re all adults here. Please stop the nonsense and insults. Relative to importance in all eras of Van Halen, this is how I rank everyone. You aren’t as great as you think:

1. Edward Van Halen 2. David Lee Roth 3. Michael Anthony 4. Alex Van Halen 5. Samuel Hagar 6. Wolfgang Van Halen 7. Gary Cherone

Simply my opinion. Many will both agree and disagree. But I think we all can agree that hurling insults, bickering and stirring up drama on the internet, social media is just stupid. It’s time for folks to grow up and act like adults. Life is too short. Thank you for your time.

JOE SATRIANI: EARTH TOUR 2022 – 2023

Joe Satriani had an admirably productive workingman’s holiday, forced time away from the road that ultimately produced his 19th studio album, The Elephants of Mars , as the final result.

The guitarist challenged himself to create a “new standard” for instrumental guitar albums to be measured against, one which would work from “a new platform of his own design,” as he terms it. “I want to show people that the instrumental guitar album can contain far more complexity of creative elements than I think people are using right now.”

Satriani and his touring band, all recording remotely in separate areas of the world during lockdown, answered that challenge in spades. The Elephants of Mars crackles with an exciting new energy, briskly traveling through stylistic roads that feel freshly updated, viewed through new eyes.

From the gripping, sci-fi madness of “Through A Mother’s Day Darkly,” to the isolation felt in a decaying urban landscape, as depicted in “Sahara,” to the general endorphin levels that peak as the elephants finally roar in the title track, The Elephants of Mars offers up an album-length journey that never dulls.

It’s one that, thanks to the pandemic and no constraints, truly represents the album that Satriani himself hoped he could deliver with his band. “We did everything. We tried the craziest ideas. And we entertained every notion we had about turning something backwards, upside down, seeing what could happen.”

Joe Satriani Plans 'Fine Art' Tour Dates

Satriani will be performing a private, intimate concert for Wentworth clients at the end of each show.

Joe Satriani, the legendary world-renowned guitarist, is planning two additional outings as a touring visual artist with showings coming to two Wentworth Gallery locations in March, 2023 - specifically, Saturday, March 11th at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City and Sunday March 12th at the King of Prussia location.

After debuting his new artwork, "Beyond Reality," last year at the Wentworth Florida locations, Satriani has been busy preparing additional one of a kind pieces for these new exhibits including original canvases and hand painted guitars.

"Joe is a master storyteller. Just as his music draws in the listener, his art draws in the viewer. His artwork is emotional, imaginative, and fantastic. Not only do you see the universe through Joe's eyes, but you also contemplate our place in it." - Christian O'Mahony, Principal Wentworth Gallery.

IN GALLERY APPEARANCES BY JOE SATRIANI

(artist will be in attendance at all showings)

SATURDAY MARCH 11TH 6-9 PM Wentworth Gallery at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City Address: 1000 Boardwalk, Atlantic City, NJ 08401 (609) 300-5095

SUNDAY, MARCH 12TH 1-4 PM Wentworth Gallery at King of Prussia Mall Address: 690 West Dekalb Pike #2084, King of Prussia, PA 19406 (610) 337-8988

Joe Satriani is the world's most commercially successful solo guitar performer, with six gold and platinum discs to his credit (including one more gold award for the debut album by his band Chickenfoot), and sales in excess of 10 million copies.

Since September 18, 1970 (the day his idol Jimi Hendrix passed away), Satriani has dedicated himself to the artistry of the instrument. While still a teenager in his hometown of Westbury, New York, he taught guitar to another budding six-string hopeful, Steve Vai. A few years later, Satriani moved to San Francisco and played guitar in a popular new wave band, The Squares, and briefly joined The Greg Kihn Band before the release of Not Of This Earth.

Satriani's reputation was already growing in guitar circles - along with Vai, some of his other students were Metallica's Kirk Hammett and Testament's Alex Skolnick - but in 1987, he broke through to the masses with his second studio full-length, Surfing With The Alien, a massive seller (it hit No. 29 on the Billboard 200) that included the radio hits "Satch Boogie" and the title track. The success of that album caught the attention of Mick Jagger, who asked Satriani to be his lead guitarist on his first-ever solo tour, in 1988.

As a live performer, Satriani has toured the world with each new release. In 1993, he joined Deep Purple as a temporary replacement for Ritchie Blackmore during a Japanese tour. In 1996, Satriani founded the multi-guitarist traveling experience called G3, which has seen him share stages with Vai, Eric Johnson, Yngwie Malmsteen, Robert Fripp, among others.

And starting in 2009, Satriani traversed the globe again as a member of Chickenfoot. The all-star band (which also includes singer Sammy Hagar, former Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith) has issued two albums, their debut and 2011's follow-up, Chickenfoot III.

Satriani's solo discography includes a host of classics, including 1989's Flying In A Blue Dream, The Extremist from 1992, Is There Love In Space? (2004) and 2010's Black Swans And Wormhole Wizards. His 15 Grammy nominations have been for songs such as "Always With Me, Always With You," "The Crush Of Love," and "Summer Song," as well as full albums like Surfing With The Alien, The Extremist and Super Colossal. He released his 19th studio album, The Elephants of Mars in April 2022.

Satriani has appeared in motion pictures such as Christopher Guest's 2006 release, "For Your Consideration", and the 2011 Brad Pitt starrer, "Moneyball". Through the years, he has designed and endorsed guitars, amplifiers and effects pedals for Ibanez, Marshall and Vox. His JS Series of guitars through Ibanez has been one of the company's most popular and consistent sellers.

As an artist, Satriani released his first collection, "Radiant Collection," in the summer of 2019 with "Radiant Echoes Collection" following closely in 2020, both receiving both critical and fan praise. The first two collections were created in part from Joe's performance on the fretboard.

He utilized a glove developed by SceneFOUR that uses light to chronicle his movement on the fretboard and translate it into abstract artwork before taking the canvases back to his home studio and adding paint. These original canvases caught the eye of Wentworth Galleries and Satriani began to develop one-of-a-kind works for a debut showing in Florida. This is Satriani's first foray into the world of a touring artist.

Joe Satriani moves UK tour to May 2023

It's taking place three years later than planned

Joe Satriani has moved his headline UK tour once again.

Originally scheduled to take place in 2020 the tour had been rescheduled to begin in April 2022, however it will now happen another 13 months later in May 2023.

Citing the reason for the postponement of the UK and European tour, a statement reads: ‘With the current Covid restrictions and quarantine mandates not yet standardised throughout the world, it has been decided that the best path forward is to reschedule once again.’

The six-date UK leg of the sprawling European trek will now open at Birmingham Symphony Hall on Friday 12th May 2023 and conclude at London Palladium on Wednesday 17th May 2023.

Original tickets remain valid for the rescheduled shows and remaining tickets are on sale now.

Joe Satriani releases his 19th studio album ‘The Elephants of Mars’ on Friday 8th April 2022 via his new label home of earMUSIC.

Featuring 14 tracks including lead song ‘Sahara’, ‘The Elephants of Mars’ follows 2020’s critically acclaimed ‘Shapeshifting’ album, and 65-year-old Satch says he challenged himself to create a “new standard” for instrumental guitar albums when making the new record.

Satch explains: “I want to show people that an instrumental guitar album can contain far more creative and entertaining elements than I think people are using right now.”

He says of the creative process: “We did everything. We tried the craziest ideas. And we entertained every notion we had about turning something backwards, upside down, seeing what could happen.”

Joe Satriani's UK tour dates:

Birmingham Symphony Hall – Fri 12th

Gateshead Sage Hall 1 – Sat 13th

Manchester Bridgewater Hall – Sun 14th

Glasgow O2 Academy – Mon 15th

Bexhill De La Warr Pavilion – Tue 16th

London Palladium – Wed 17th

The wildest guitars in rock music:

Zz top’s spinning fur guitars.

Of course, we couldn't make a feature about outrageous guitars without ZZ Top's iconic Spinning Fur Guitars. Made from real sheepskin, the twirling guitar for Billy Gibbons and bass for the late-great Dusty Hill were both created by Dean Zelinsky of Dean Guitars and they famously first appeared in the music video to 'Legs' in 1983. Billy Gibbons says: "The guitars are attached to our belt buckles. It's a rotary electrical contact and strap mount. A hole is bored in the back of the guitar at the balancing point and the device is mounted there. Oh yeah, you gotta look out for that thing coming back around. Get your head and neck out of the way or else it'll say hello in an unfashionable fashion."

Bill Bailey’s Gary Hutchins Six-Neck Guitar

Comedy legend, esteemed musician and Strictly Come Dancing champion, Bill Bailey, played this six-necked guitar aptly called The Beast as part of his stand-up routine in 2011. An apparent nod to Rick Nielsen's Five Neck, the instrument was created by guitar maker Gary Hutchins, the eponymous founder of Hutchins guitars, and it once went on display at London's Albert and Victoria Museum.

Nigel Tufnel’s Marshall Stack Guitar

It's fitting that legendary Spinal Tap axeman and amp aficionado Nigel Tufnel used to play a glorious Marshall stack guitar. One of only two ever made, the guitar has a Jackson neck and Seymour Duncan pickup, with the bottom stack detachable for quieter studio work. Naturally, all the volume and tone knobs go up to 11. Commenting on why the guitar was his mainstay for many European shows, Tufnel said: "Well, it's got a very Scandinavian look about it, doesn't it?"

Michael Angelo Batio’s Double-Guitar

Famous for his technical prowess and genre-straddling playing style, American heavy metal guitarist Michael Angelo Batio personally invented the Double Guitar - a V-shaped, twin-neck guitar that Batio plays both left and right-handed.

Rick Nielsen’s Five Neck

Cheap Trick's Rick Nielsen with his iconic Five Neck guitar at a concert in 2012. Tired of performing with multiple guitars at concerts, Nielsen joined forces with guitar makers Hamer way back in 1981 to combine all of his guitar playing needs into one glorious instrument. The guitar was created by fusing the bodies of five Hamer Specials together and there have been several incarnations of the Five Neck. Hamer founder Frank Untermeyer said: "Rick's out of his mind, but in a wonderful way."

Steve Vai's Hydra guitar

Taking its name from the track 'Teeth of the Hydra', Steve Vai's new Hydra guitar was built in conjunction with the designers at Hoshino and is based on a "steampunk motif" idea of Vai's. Unveiled in December 2021, the Hydra is billed as a one-bodied, two-headstock-ed, three-neck-ed creature that encompasses, among other things: seven- and 12-string guitars; a four-string bass; sympathetic harp strings; half-fretless necks; single-coil, humbucking, piezo and sustainer pickups; floating and hardtail tremolo bridges; phase splitters; and much more. "It's an incredibly-built machine," Vai comments.

Bo Diddley’s Square Guitar

The blues rock legend made his first square guitar aged 17 as he couldn't afford to buy an electric guitar. He explained to Vintage Guitar in 1997: "(the guitar's) pickup was the part of a Victrola record player where the needle went in. I clamped it to the metal tailpiece to pick up the vibrations." The original guitar was sadly stolen, but in 1958 Gretsch later made a version with DeArmond pickups. Pictured is Bo proudly clutching it in 1959.

John Paul Jones’ Triple Neck Arch-Top Mandolin

The Led Zeppelin multi-instrumentalist's unique Triple Neck Arch-Top Mandolin was created by luthier Andy Manson in the mid-1970s and swiftly became a mainstay of Led Zep concerts. The famous electroacoustic instrument boasts 8-string mandolin, 12-string guitar, and 6-string guitar necks. Manson said decades later: "I designed and made the triple neck and took it to John's house. I said, 'Hi John I thought this might interest you.' He said, 'Wow, yes indeed, I can't wait to see Pagey's face when I walk on stage with this!' It cost £400 and I skipped off down the road feeling like a millionaire."

Prince’s Love Symbol Guitar

Pictured is Prince with a purple Love Symbol guitar in at The Grammy Awards in February 2004 where he performed his anthem 'Purple Rain'. Prince's range of Love Symbol guitars were based on the shape of the unpronounceable symbol he adopted as his moniker in 1993 in an act of rebellion against his record label, Warner Bros.

Steve Vai’s Ibanez Triple-Neck Red Heart Guitar

The virtuoso musician designed his Ibanez custom built triple neck with heart-shaped body guitar in 1988 as he wanted something "eye-catching" for the video to David Lee Roth's 'Just Like Paradise'. Steve Vai himself admits the guitar is "odd" and there have been three incarnations of the instrument – the original Red Heart, a spare called Red Heart II and a Purple Heart. Steve used the latter guitar on the Ultra Zone tour and wrote the song 'Fever Dream' with it.

Pat Metheny’s Pikasso Guitar

Canadian master luthier Linda Manzer created The Pikasso Guitar in 1984 when jazz artist Pat Metheny requested a guitar that had "as many strings as possible." The completely unique resulting instrument has 42 strings arranged in four different string sections.

Gene Simmons’ Axe Bass

Back in 1978, Gene Simmons joined forces with master luthier Steve Carr to create a unique bass guitar shaped like an axe that would suit his on-stage Demon persona perfectly. The resulting weapon-like instrument – aptly entitled The Axe Bass – is a true classic. Now a running trademark for KISS, there have been a number of incarnations of the Axe Bass including the pictured Cort GS-Axe-2 bass guitar Gene is aggressively clutching at the 2010 NAMM Show.

Michael Anthony’s Jack Daniel’s Bass

Michael Anthony's now famous Jack Daniel's Bass was created back in 1983 while Van Halen were working on their musical masterpiece '1984'. Anthony's guitar tech and good friend Kevin 'Dugie' Dugan was charged with creating the bass, which was made with the blessing of Jack Daniel's on one condition – that only three guitars were made. One is on display at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame museum, one is in storage and one is still used by Michael Anthony to this very day.

John Entwistle’s Buzzard Bass

The Ox played the iconic Buzzard Bass for the final 17 years of his career from 1985 to his untimely passing in 2002. Entwistle worked with Hans Peter Wilfer, founder of Warwick basses, on the striking bass and the pair came up with the moniker Buzzard after imbibing numerous drinks at London nightclub Maggie's – neither could remember who first suggested the name. After they picked the name, the headstock was tweaked to resemble the beak of a buzzard.

John Fogerty’s Baseball Bat Guitar

Crafted by Philip Kubicki, John Fogerty named his unique guitar 'Slugger' in homage to the Louisville Slugger baseball bat. Created in 1985 when his album 'Centerfield' came out, Fogerty donated the instrument to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in 2010. Fogerty said at the time: "That guitar means a lot to me. It's symbolizes two of my great loves, baseball and the guitar. When 'Centerfield' came out, it was after a long break and was such an important album to me on many levels. The lessons of baseball - the hits, the misses, the triumphs, and the losses - were something that I could really relate to in my life. So I got this idea to make a baseball bat guitar and of course, it had to be a Louisville Slugger."

Ian Hunter’s Maltese Cross Guitar

Ian Hunter's Maltese Cross Guitar was designed by American luthier Harvey Thomas in the 1970s. Despite its iconic status, Hunter says the guitar looked good but didn't sound great and he sold it a number of years ago. Def Leppard and Planet Rock's Joe Elliott had two new Maltese Crosses made for Hunter's 70th birthday in 2009 that Hunter says sounded "GREAT!" Hunter says: "There are only two in the world. I think it's really neat that a guitar can look that good AND sound so good. Very cool!! Praise be to Joe!!!"

Bumblefoot’s Vigier Flying Foot guitar

As the name suggests, Bumblefoot's Vigier Flying Foot features a pink foot on the guitar body complete with wings that pop out. Bumblefoot says of his beloved instrument: "Vigier spent 5 months building this guitar by hand - it's truly a masterpiece. Incredible detail on the guitar, down to the toenails. When you bend down the vibrato bar, wings pop out of the sides. They gave me this guitar at the NAMM convention in Los Angeles, January 1998. Plays and sounds the best of all my guitars - it's my main guitar."

George Lynch’s Mom

Influential Lynch Mob and ex-Dokken axeman George Lynch unveiled his skull and bones guitar – affectionately called 'Mom' – in the mid 1980s. Designed and hand-crafted by artist John 'J. Frog' Garcia, the guitar also featured an ESP Guitars decal on the headstock as Lynch was contracted with them at the time.

Andrew WK’s Taco Guitar

Hard partying rocker Andrew WK unveiled a delicious Taco Guitar to mark National Taco Day on 4th October 2017. His second foray into food-themed instruments following his Pizza Guitar a few years earlier, the custom Taco Guitar was created with ESP Guitars. WK said at the time: "I realised that since I had paid tribute to pizza, I now had to pay tribute to tacos in all their glory. I was destined to make a taco shaped guitar. This is proof that if you have the vision, no matter how outlandish or unruly, the team at ESP Guitars can turn it into a beautiful reality. And they only use the highest quality materials and they're truly master craftsmen. Absolutely mind-blowing attention to detail and playability. There's no compromise when it comes to the integrity of the instrument, or the hardness of the party."

Misa Kitara Guitar Shaped MIDI Controller

Not technically a guitar, the Misa Kitara was a short-lived digital MIDI controller and musical instrument that was developed on 2011 and discontinued just two years later. Taking its name from the Finnish word for guitar (kitara), the instrument combined touch buttons for strings and frets with an 8-inch multi-touch screen that creates a variety of sound effects. Muse bassist Chris Wolstenholme can be seen playing a modified Misa Kitara in the video to the band's 2012 song 'Madness.'

Dave Hill’s Super Yob Guitar

Famed for his outrageous costumes and hilarious haircut, it seemed only right that Slade axeman Dave Hill had a unique and eccentric guitar. Created by luthier John Birch in 1973, the Super Yob was styled after a science fiction ray gun and instantly became synonymous with Dave Hill. Guitarist and songwriter Marco Pirroni bought the original Super Yob in the early eighties, but Hill has since had a replica made.

John 5’s Fender Telecaster Lava Lamp Guitar

John 5 has a number of eye-catching guitars in his arsenal, but the Fender Telecaster Lava Lamp Guitar is arguably the standout instrument of the lot. John 5 says: "It's heavy as hell but it's really cool because it lights up on stage… it weighs a ton! It sounds really good. There's anti-freeze in it because when I ship it abroad it might freeze and crack the guitar."

Ginger Wildheart’s Smiley Bones Guitar

Based on The Wildhearts' fearsome logo, this truly phenomenal Smiley Bones Guitar was created in 2015 by Devil & Sons Guitars. Daniel Wallis made the guitar for Ginger Wildheart to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the 'P.H.U.Q.' album as a replacement for the original guitar which came out when the album was released but was later stolen. He explains to Planet Rock: "I sent some images of it to Ginger who loved it but asked if I could make a few changes so it met a perfect spec for him to play live. Instead of making the changes I just made another so there were in fact two that I made. Part of his spec was to have a particular BC Rich neck put on it, which I did, but then he decided that to play it live it would be better with a 24-fret neck, so I made that change too."

Zakk Wylde’s Epiphone Graveyard Disciple guitar

Ozzy Osbourne and Black Label Society axeman Zakk Wylde with one of this Epiphone Graveyard Disciple signature guitars on stage in 2009. Nicknamed the 'Bo Deadly' by Zakk, the Graveyard Disciple comes in a coffin shaped case and features a crucifix on the body and headstock. Nice.

Eric Bloom’s Blue Öyster Cult Logo Guitar

We couldn't do this list without including Eric Bloom's famed guitar shaped like the Blue Öyster Cult logo. The bespoke guitar was created by master luthier Ronaldo at Pastore's Music in Union City, New Jersey. In case you're wondering, the logo was created by Bill Gawlik, the artist behind BOC's first and second album covers, and it's a stylization of the astronomical symbol for the planet Saturn.

Bootsy Collins’ Star-Shaped Space Bass

The flamboyant James Brown and Parliament-Funkadelic bassist's first Star-Shaped Space Bass was created in 1975 by fledgling guitar maker Larry Pless who worked at an accordon shop called Gus Zoppi Music in Warren, Michigan. Since then there have been numerous incarnations of the Star-Shaped Space Bass, including Bootsy's current signature Warwick star basses, but the basic design has stayed the same.

Brian May’s Red Special Guitar

Easily one of the most famous guitars in the history of rock music, Brian May created the Red Special with his dad Harold as a teenager in 1963 as he couldn't afford a Fender, Gibson or Höfner guitar. Designed to intentionally create feedback, the guitar has helped define Brian May's signature sound and he's performed almost exclusively with it throughout Queen's prime in the 1970s and 1980s until this present day.

Todd Rundgren's Veleno Ankh Guitar

Todd Rundgren's aluminium ankh-shaped guitar was created by metal craftsman John Veleno in the early 1970s. Highly regarded for their aesthetic appearance and also distinct playing style, a series of Velono guitars were made for a number of artists. Rundgren loved his so much, he had two made.

The Dean V Dave Mustaine Double Neck Electric Guitar

Dave Mustaine's bespoke double neck guitar, created by Dean, has been one of his main instruments for the past decade. Thanks to its jagged shape and the metal artwork emblazoned on the body, the guitar is an absolute aesthetic triumph – a behemoth of an instrument that suits Megadeth's brutal music perfectly.

Rob Davis’ Heart-Shaped Guitar

Mud guitarist Rob Davis played his famous red heart-shaped guitar during the glam rockers' commercial peak in the 1970s and he still performs with it to this very day. Here he is proudly flaunting the guitar in a promo shoot with Mud almost five decades ago.

Prince’s yellow ‘Cloud’ Guitar

Late music legend Prince had an extensive and highly flamboyant custom guitar collection consisting of more than 100 instruments. Among the standout instruments was Prince's yellow "Cloud" guitar, which sold for $225,000 under the hammer in 2018.

Rick Nielsen’s Uncle Dick

A prolific collector, Rick Nielsen has amassed over 2,000 guitars over the decades. Alongside his trademark Five Neck (also pictured here), arguably the most famous of the bunch is his Hamer 'Uncle Dick' double neck guitar from 1983, which is based on a likeness of himself.

Michael Angelo Batio’s Quad Guitar

As seen in the video to his 2020 song 'Time Traveller', Michael Angelo Batio also invented the Quad-Guitar, which features – you guessed it – two sets of twin-neck V-shaped guitars. Outrageous yet highly impressive!

Lita Ford’s B.C. Rich Monkey Train guitar

The former Runaways rocker unveiled her train-themed B.C. Rich Monkey Train guitar in her 'Playin' With Fire' official video in 1991. Lita told Guitar Afficionado a few years back: "I got into B.C. Rich. I was always over there carving out new ideas and helping to make new stuff. They would make anything I asked them to make."

James Hetfield’s Carl Guitar

In 2018, James Hetfield proudly showed off his unique new guitar – dubbed Carl – to Metallica fans. The rugged instrument is named after 3132 Carlson Boulevard in El Cerrito, California, where Metallica were based during their breakthrough years from 1983 to 1986. The garage was later demolished but James's friend Andy Anderson of the Bay Area thrash group Attitude Adjustment kept eight pieces of wood from the heavy metal landmark and gifted them to him years later. Papa Het then enlisted the services of master custom guitar maker Ken Lawrence to craft him an instrument using those planks of wood. Carl featured on Metallica's WorldWired World Tour where it was used for performances of 'Hardwired… to Self-Destruct' track 'Moth Into Flame.'

Dan Hartman’s Bass Suit

Unfortunately, we've been unable to acquire an image of the late Dan Hartman's Bass Suit but there's no way we can miss it out! The Edgar Winter Group bassist and solo musician paid a reported $5,000 for the suit in 1974 (huge money at the time), which he designed with Los Angeles couturier Bill Witten. Made from a rubbery fabric that featured the instrument in the pelvic pocket, the Bass Suit's controls are on the sleeve attached to an aluminium plate and the guitar neck ends with a crescent moon.

Stig Pederson’s iPhone Bass

Stig Pedersen, bassist/vocalist of Danish rock band D-A-D, has a number of outlandish bass creations that he performs with including a rocket shaped bass, a reverse bass where the head stock and body are swopped around, and a transparent bass. He hit the headlines in 2018 when he unveiled his latest playful creation – a bass shaped like an iPhone.
