Steve Vai Announces “Passion and Warfare” 25th Anniversary Tour
I’m going to be showcasing a whole lot of posts from the San Diego Comic Con in terms of the trailers that are heading our way but to keep the music information flowing, here are the full details on the tour that the great Steve Vai will be doing later on in the year. Dig in.
The Press Release:
LOS ANGELES — To commemorate the 25th anniversary of his landmark album, Passion and Warfare, Steve Vai is currently in Europe on the first leg of his very special world tour celebrating one of the greatest instrumental rock guitar recordings of all time.
This fall, Vai will bring his tour to North America starting on October 8, 2016 with a performance in Riverside, CA at the Fox Performing Arts Center. For the first time Vai will be performing the entire Passion and Warfare record from top to bottom, with some very special surprises in store. The first 20 North American Passion and Warfare 25th Anniversary World Tour dates have been announced (see list of dates below). These 20 concerts represent the first half of the tour. The remaining half will be announced soon.
“The enjoyment that the band is having and the audience response to the shows we are playing in Europe has taken us a bit by surprise,” Vai said. “The collective support for the PAW 25th, Modern Primitive and this show is humbling. There is deep appreciation from us in having the opportunity to honor this record with this tour and we are smiling every moment of it.”

Having been a classic Van Halen fan for many years before he went solo, my interest obviously followed the great David Lee Roth into whatever adventure he saw fit to entertain us with. Now, it was never my intent to offer up thoughts on such a limited compilation but with so many people beginning to purchase music digitally now, it felt like something good. My rationale was based on the hope that it would encourage folks who missed out on some bands giving them a chance care of this kind of brief release. With only five tracks to speak about these would be right on point and give you some must have ideas. Starting off this limited listening experience are the two strongest tracks from Dave’s EP “Crazy From The Heat” which I loved to death despite their being covers. The two videos for these songs alone helped make them staples on both MTV and Rock Radio of the day.
