Runnin' With The Dweezil EP. 1 Steve Vai

In this episode, my guest Steve Vai talks with me about a wide range of topics that include playing in my dad's band and Edward Van Halen's connection to us and how it changed our lives. We unravel parts of the mystery behind the phone call that started it all. We learn more about the very first thing I saw Edward Van Halen play up close, stories of recording in the studio with EVH when I was 12 years old and how Steve Vai ended up in David Lee Roth's band.

    I didn't find this very interesting ,loooooooooooong story about Eddie coming over to Zappa's house, Vai talking about how he got the DLR gig and stuff like that. Not what I was promised: A talk about VH 1. I thought I'd get an in depth talk about THAT.

        The first episode of this podcast is the conversation I've been waiting to hear ever since I got VH1 on cassette for my 4th birthday in 1982. Love you, Dweezil and Steve.

            You're welcome! And yeah I was 4. It really set my life on a path, as you can imagine.

                Research is a good thing to do. There's so much content it sometimes has to be split into dual episodes.
