Saw Steve Vai with Joe Satriani,his first guitar teacher,along with Steve Hackett on their G3 tour. I have Steve and Joe's complete discography. Been studying them for years. Keep it up and go with the inspiration.🤘👍🎶
His floyd rose keeps the guitar in tune very well. Even my JEM Jr stays in tune really well after vicious whammy usage. You should check out Candle Power by Steve. He has a technique in it he calls "joint shifting". It looks and sounds even more insane than previous things he's done.
A lot of Vai's "extraneous" wackiness is really stuff that pays off on multiple listens. If you just listen to a song once, like many do, then you don't understand the structure and how a lot of it fits together.

Vai started his music career in 1978 at the age of eighteen as a transcriptionist for Frank Zappa, and played in Zappa's band from 1980 to 1983

Whispering a Prayer, live by the same artist.
A suggestion...
YYZ by Rush. It's based on the Toronto Airport morse code signal they heard flying home from touring. The live in Rio version is cool.
