I mean, he is jaw-dropping good. At one point he grabbed up an acoustic and played some of the most intricate and complex stuff and blew my mind. A lot of guitar players can play "fast" with a lot of distortion and sustain so that their picking hand isn't really doing anything. But Stevens was picking clean on that acoustic solo he did and his dexterity and precision were just amazing.
And Billy Idol himself sang his ass off. It was a good show and I'm looking forward to seeing them again.

i just googled Steve Stevens - he's kept himself busy over the years, including over 30 with Billy Idol. Here's a little something different by Steve Stevens:
