Yngwie Malmsteen is a LEGEND!!!!! Stop trolling and seeking out his videos! Do you know he is one of the hardest working legends out there. Have you seen how many shows he does back to back?!? 6 to 7 shows that is insane and trolls are sitting behind their computers complaining Lol get a grip he is a Legend and plays better then ever and is selling out each and every show he is playing! Lat album straight into the charts at 89! Long live the legend!

[@Remmst9-tc7ms]

He is a True Legend saw him recently already got tickets for his USA shows can't wait

[@navasaband]

I was the main soundman at Doug Weston’s Troubadour through the 90’s. Malmsteen’s WWIII came through one day. First off, he noodled at full volume through the entire soundcheck, making everyone scream for “Kick!!!” “Snare!!!”, etc. Later that night, during the final barrage in the encore, Yngwie threw his Strat up in the air. When it came down, it hit him in the head and caused a cut. His face turned three shades of red. He went to talk on his gold plated SM58, (he never sang), but someone in the audience had pulled out the cable so he couldn’t talk. He now turned another five shades of red. He was so pissed, he turned his head and hawked a loogie at the people watching at the side of the stage, hitting the tour manager’s wife straight in the face. A minute later, I saw the tour manager running across the stage up into the dressing room, and proceeded to have a full-on fist fight with Yngwie. The fought all the way out to the street. Later on, Malmsteen’s girlfriend came around and said she wanted to quit the tour that night because she knew Yngwie was going to beat the crap out of her.
He lived up to every rumor I had heard about him.
True story.

[@DreidMusicalX]

He is still just as crazy a player as when I seen him in the mid 80's with DIO in Las Vegas NV. 1985 I think it was.

[@DonNegro93]

What a great tribute band!

[@SaySomethingWorthHearing]

I saw Yngwie during the Rising Force tour and although I loved some of the songs on that album and admire the incredible technical proficiency of his playing, I couldn't help but see him as a one trick pony. The difference between a player like Yngwie and a player like Nuno Bettencourt is that Nuno understands the value of the space between notes and he understands melody.
There is no melody in a constant flurry of notes. Watching Yngwie is like watching some dragsters. After a few races, you're thinking, "Well, what else can it do?" and the answer is not much.
Players like Nuno, Warren DeMartini, Jake E. Lee and Vivian Campbell can all play some fast stuff, but they generally know/knew when to hit the gas and when to make the guitar sing a song. Yngwie still hasn't figured that out.

[@pepegudino264]

Despues de haber tenido bandas con musicos de mucha altura y con vocalistas top del heavy metal y el hard rock y de presentarse en grande escenarios ante miles de personas en todo el mundo, este Yngwie ahora es una version gris de lo que alguna vez fue con una oscura banda de desconocidos acompañandolo al fondo en versiones muy bizarras de sus legendarias canciones como pretexto para sus solos que suenan cada vez menos a lo que conocimos en sus discos. Todo esto como resultado de su gran ego que no le permitio mantener una banda como tal donde todos brillaran!

I grew up with Yngwie, I love Yngwie, he's laid down some of the most incredible guitar music ever performed, bar none. But I can't help but feel he's kind of "bullshitting" too much these days, the hand over the top of the neck pretending to play notes... come on, man.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen..... Yngwie can't even play HIS OWN LICKS right anymore. Okay, let's be honest for a second here. He is still a PHENOMENAL guitar legend, an absolute virtuoso in every respect on his instrument. But, he's playing so fast he's screwing up his own riffs and improvising notes on the fly! That can be said is the TRUE measure of a legendary guitar god such as Malmsteen, but he's almost intentionally fucking up while trying to make it look like he's NOT trying to fuck it up....

Having said that, I think he’s putting the cart before the horse here. The songs are obviously secondary to HIM and his playing. The songs are almost an afterthought.
Contrasted with Eddie Van Halen, where the songs were of equal or MORE importance than his own playing.
Maybe I’m being too critical. I’ll definitely enjoy the show. I just think a little more attention to the little things would help. Maybe less pick kicking and more tempo.
