It must have been so exciting to play a great solo like that in front of that sea of people, who didn't come to watch Steve mainly, but the whole band. Steve had much to prove...and he sure did prove 'em that he's a wizard when it comes to the guitar!
I think it's safe to say that he didn't disappoint his audience back then, nor does he do so now either 8) Viva la Vai :P

Ah happy memories .

Vai got paid a fortune , allegedly , to play with Whitesnake , and this gave him the financial independence to continue with his solo stuff .
