The Generation Axe Tour features one killer line up… Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, Zakk Wylde, Nuno Bettencourt and Tosin Abasi. The tour commenced a few days ago, and I’m sure you will be blown away by the recordings that have emerged on YouTube (see below). The rhythm section is Matt Garstka (Animals as Leaders) on drums, Pete Griffin (Zappa Plays Zappa) on Bass and Nick Marinovich (Yngwie Malmsteen) on keyboard.
Yngwie Malmsteen posted a photo from yesterdays show on his Facebook with the text, “EPIC!“.
Tosin Abasi posted a photo with the text, “Tfw you set up next to Yngwie Malmsteen’s rig“.
The tour has hardly commenced and already it’s sounding incredible! Check out the video samples below…
