What I did was take the harmony or melody of the tune and play it the best way by which I would do it. It was troublesome on account of there have been loads of little fast runs collectively together with his fingerings and his tonal center, which is completely totally different than mine. I wanted to work on it. I would do it, nonetheless when it received right here time as to collaborating in in direction of each other, I’m Steve, and he’s Yngwie.”

I stand up throughout the morning [and] my jaw hurts from laughing rather a lot. These guys, they’re out of their minds.”
