Now I'm not 100% positive that Yngwie J. Malmsteen played guitar at this show or not but the original up-loader named the line-up as if he was so that's what we are sticking with here. If so Malmsteen would be replaced soon by Steve Vai after an on stage fight with Graham Bonnet over Bonnet supposedly messing with Malmsteen's amp during his guitar solo. The problem actually being 2 stars who don't want to give up a bit of their spotlight. Too bad because it was a good pairing of talents all though I am more of a fan of Steve Vai than Malmsteen (this being based on the fact that as a Detroit musician I have had the chance of meeting both guitarists). My experience was Malmsteen was a bit of a jerk while Steve Vai was a real nice guy. Others may have had different experiences with both so...
