i was waiting for a lough cheer when S.S. did the Van Halen part of the solo. I guess you have to be a guitar player to hear that part. S.S. is an amazing guitarist this performance was superb.

No sea of mobile phones...how refreshing!
Because everyone's is too old to use them 🤣
@@golfer45nz Oh look, a comedian.
I heard that The Daily Show is lokking for a host on wednesdays. It seems Jon Stewart is not willing to do it daily.
@@Cristiano-kv7zl thank you I will give get my PA to contact The Daily Show. Could do with some extra cash
No signal???
One of the best guitarists in the world.
What a masterpiece !!! This should get a BILLION views ... wow.
We very much agree!😄
Steve released a flamenco album years ago...it's special.
Flamenco a Go-Go....BTW , good luck finding it.
Hey Bro... it's on UA-cam
Steve Stevens is an American Bad Ass on Guitar. Him and Billy together for 40 years' lucky us!
I wonder if his middle name is Steven.
@@StoicNature444 Klugscheisseralarm
This man is absolutely one of the best but also underrated guitarists in the world. Superb
Yup
Not underrated to those of us who follow great music. I feel like he is well known by many. 💕
Just Balls to that. He's been a fixture star player all around the world, Go get under-rated by a honey badger.
No he s overrated
Holy shit! I’m feeling like a kid again listening to him now!!
Steve Stevens maestro#1
He can Pick it
He's always been underrated. Dudes got licks.
Nice little tip of the hat to Eddie Van Halen around the end of the solo. Billy & Steve the dynamic duo!
Super classy. Got a lump when I realized what was happening.

The crush I had on him! That smile still gets me. Walls plastered with his posters & albums. Made a sign for his concert...We were in the pit and he took it from me and held it up for everyone to see. He handed it back with a smile and wink. I grabbed the electrical tape from his mic or guitar cord. What a moment!😂 I kept both for a long time after. Now long gone..but so happy to have the memories! 🤗Thanks Billy Idol❤
One of the best parts of the Billy Idol show was getting to watch Steve ❤
I have one of those guitars. Sure wish I could play it like that. Stevens is an amazing musician schooled in many genre's. How does Billy Idol still have a guitarist like that.
Because he’s a good dude and they work well together.
You fool. What guitar is it Lol.
It is a Godin Multiac grand concert you fool....LOL. Good day sir @@tomakafrankconlon3207
I have a Godin A6 which is the same size/shape. It’s made to take electric strings but, with an acoustic and an electric pickup, do the job of 2 guitars. I just settled for acoustic bronze 11g strings and it’s the best electro acoustic gtr I’ve ever had, no feedback at all. I’m retired from gigging now but it’s been a reliable go-to guitar for me.
Because he's Billy Idol, and they are buddies.
I’m so over the “HE’S SO UNDERRATED” comments… To who? I ask again …. To whom is he underrated? He’s a good player… He wouldn’t say he’s underrated… I bet he’s humble enough to know exactly where he stands… Why compare anyone to anyone.. The man is timeless, unique and an all around great artist.. Long live King 👑 Stevens #billyidol
Billy Idol hit the scene when I was beginning high school and while I really enjoyed their music, all the clubs played it, I never really thought they were more than a studio band. Years later they had the VH1 special and I was blown away by Steve Stevens, and frankly, Billy Idol as well.
Studio Band!! C'mon Man!!! 🤣
I'm gonna to need a tower crane to help me pick my jaw up off the floor after that performance...wow!
always knew Steve was a great guitarist but I had no idea he could play like that! 🔥⚡🎸
Nice to see him start with advanced guitar synth and transition to clean accoustic sound. Over the years has been very innovative. Steve and Billy obviously have a long partnership and bring their world class skills to the stage. In the band I think they push each other to highs they cant get to alone.
The great Steve Stevens never disappoint and nice homage do the King at 4:55. Superb!
This is Pure Magic
Damn Steve is flawless
thuis guitar man are a real monster OMFG
What a playing guitar!!!!!! 😮❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💯😎👍🎤🎶🌷
So much talent. Incredible how long they have been together.
It's no suprise why Billy Idol always kept Steve Stevens as his axeman: dude's a genius.
Idol & Stevens 🎶🤟
Steve= guitar genius Billy = awesome❤
Holy shit Steve, absolutely flawless, you just get better and better.
Greetings from Ukraine! We wish everyone peace!
Ande we the ecuatorians wish you the same, hope to get through this bad times soon, keep on rock friends!, Greeting from Quito, Samay City!
🇺🇦💪
I generally don't care for acoustic guitar, but that's other worldly. Bravo!!!
OMG!!! BLEW ME AWAY...AND WHAT A FANTASTIC PLACE TO SEE A CONCERT!!!! MAKES ME DEFINITELY WANT TO GO TO A CONCERT HERE!❤❤❤❤👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Steve is just a miracle when it comes to the guitar playing just totally off the charts
Steve Stevens is One of my favourite guitarplayers
This man is clean!
Saw Steve with Billy Idol in the early eighties, freaking blew me away! Saw him again in a small club in Edmonton with the atomic playboys, melted my brain! Steve can walk confidently among the all time greats of guitar players. Magnifico!!
Uno de los mejores de la historia, sin dudas, por virtuosismo, permanencia, brutal buen gusto y personalisimo a la vez.
Y LEAL!!!!.....no es poco!!!
Damn.... Beyond words !!!!
Followed him since I was a kid until now. All of his career. I’m close to his age. He has lost none of his musical ear. Brilliant player. Run across desert sands was always one of my favourites of his. Spiral is another beautiful track.
If you ever get a chance to see Billy Idol. I’m telling you fry on the side of the stage where you can watch Steve play. It stunning and so worth it.
Thank you so much for uploading this !! Steve Stevens is an extraordinary guitarist and it's wonderful to hear he is still playing . I'm excited to hear the Billy idol songs too 😊

I knew Steve Stevens was a good guitar player. But when I heard this and watched his hands fly like that well look up Roy Clark and the video Malaguena. Hats off to you Steve

Mesmerizing guitar playing, very sweet!

🤟🇧🇷
A beauti full setting for special events, Steve Steven's solo guitar 🎸 playing outshines the setting. Billy Idol outshines them all🎉
Steve Stevens, merci pour les 40 ans et un peu plus de partage de ton geni de guitariste dans le monde entier. Un Francais
Wow - what a great artist !
Omg such an amazin guitarist so far beyond the Billy idol distortion
Steve stevens the all time best guitar player I’ve ever heard he’s that good..he makes it look so easy
Amazing performance. Guitar just by itself sounds huge. I always liked his playing.
the special people! lived here 36 years. i broke props on that area on the river!
🔥🖤❤ Amazing Steve Stevens, as 🤜 ALWAYS 🤛!!!!!!!❤🖤🔥
Fabulous. So many shredders hide behind lots of distortion and delay that they can almost hit anything and it sounds right. To play cleanly like that is great to listen to
Real cool......I liked that it was an acoustic solo,people are tired of elec. guitar solo's,unless its just too good to ignore........
Awesome, a master at work!
Beautiful
Décor beautiful singer..my king my love billy idol beautiful..steve stevens guitarist...
Handsome...😮😮😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
What a bloody talentthanks man
That EVH lick out of the blue was epic!
Danke and thanks 😊❤❤❤
If that solo doesn't grab your full attention, not sure if you even have a pulse.
Saw Myron and his band this past weekend. They put on a great set!
Holy shit! And love that guitar
😎 Glorious... Pure 🎸Genius
Sin duda un birtuoso de la gitarra excelente interpretation
steve stevens the best ever
If you like this side of S Stevens check out “Duende” off his Black Light Syndrome project with Terry Bozzio and Tony Levin.
Great tone ...well performed. The nylon bit is cool ...
Outstanding performance 🎩😎👌
Fantastic !!!
Was ein geiles Solo! Wahnsinn! Bekomme jedesmal Gänsehaut!
O cara é Fantástico! Um verdadeiro Show na essência da música 🎸
Bravo Maestro!
Beautiful ❤
After this I’m going to see them play .
If I’d known about this concert I would have gone to the Hoover Dam.
He is one of my favourite, back in top gun anthem year, I remember him the track goes well till today, and sometime I heard him playing in cant'n changed me' by vince neil. And then I watch him quiet often.
Steve Stevens, cosa voler di più❤🎸💯👍🏻🤟🏻💪🏻
