I saw them, only last night in haarlem, holland. Still in my head. friggin' awesome band, thé most underestimated band from 80's to date. Meniketti is up there with Gary Moore, Walter trout, Jimi H., Clapton, Snowy White, etc. Forever. Awesome drummer an d Rhythm guitar player, great , bu great stand-in for Kennemore. Hope with all my heart he get's well!!
How 'bout this guy Dave Meniketti playing this blues stuff & playing lead guitar stuff for this AWESOME band AND is ALSO the lead singer.......pretty ASTRONOMICAL in my book......i LOVE the great Y&T.....alwayz have and ALWAYZ WILL !!!!!!!!!
You've always been one smokin hot soloist Dave. I've had lots of other guitarist down you and try and minimalize your talent but I know better, besides WTF do they know anyways. Lmfao .. Big Fan of your playing since your opening for Ronnie M in Santa Cruz Rio theatre in 70s . I even forgive you for talking shit to me at the SC Civic in the early 80s. It's ALL about the music bro. You have been in my Top 3 soloist position for decades (Christ damn near half century...lmfao) Rock On Earthshaker. 😁🎸🎵🎶
Play to me Dave. I have seen them a thousand times being a Bay Area Girl :) Still Amazing evertime. Love Ya so much you'll be on me FOREVER TATTOO still looking Fierce!!
Wish i would have had this to play at my wedding but the original "I'll Cry For You" did just fine. Meniketti is just amazing and one of the coolest rockstars i have ever met.
Of course!! yes, this is ""I'll cry for you"" of the Contagious Album 1987, although this version is more blues, awesome ,beautiful sound, thanks Meniketti!!!
I just learned of Dave Meniketti from his blues song "Just Coast'n" that was on a 2 hour blues instrumental recording. I was totally hooked on that song and just had to learn more! Wow!... what an incredible musician! I'm trying to get back into guitaring myself and absolutely longing for the time when I can get this into a blues solo!!! Lol! It's like the mind can just be free of everything and all that matters is expressing yourself in those very moments... or 10 minute guitar instrumental!! 😆
@fprelectric Nice ...Ive met the band one year later after making this footage...also in the Netherlands in Zwolle..check out on my channel.... Dave and his Band are one in a million..those who make time for their Fans... Cheerio
Thanks xs4allbeenz! Awesome view of Dave tearing it up on his six string. I hope to play blues chops like Dave one day. He kills doing instrumentals. One day I'd like to see Dave put out an entire instrumental cd. Thanks for this vid.

Great post! Nice camera work too. Dave is the man. The most underrated guitarist on the planet!
Leslie West gave Dave's playing props...need I say anymore?
And rightly so , Dave's shit is Lit! 🎸🎵🎶😎

МОЛОДЕЦ ! Очень красиво и виртуозно!
Would love to hear you guys do some Gary Moore! Great job!
I've seen Dave around 30 times and he still gives it his all! Y&T is is one of my all time favorite bands.
Dave got the American Gary Moore feel.
