Joe Satriani, Steve Vai & Friends Benefit Concert

Steve and Joe will be holding a special benefit concert for their friend and music industry veteran Cliff Cultreri. “The Cliff Show” will take place on Saturday, September 30th at the House Of Blues, Hollywood, and will feature performances by both Satriani and Vai, as well as special guests to be announced.

Cliff Cultreri is the A&R executive who ‘discovered’ both Satriani and Vai as well as many other popular recording artists, while working at Relativity Records. Cultreri is currently suffering from a host of Auto-Immune and Connective-Tissue disorders that are attacking his immune system, a one in 100 million occurrence that causes severe pain and physical problems. Satriani and Vai hope to raise funds to help Cultreri and his family’s financial needs.

Tickets to the show will be $100, and go on sale August 12th. A limited number of tickets will be available for pre-sale @ $75 on Tue, Aug 8 through Ticketmaster.com. Stay tuned to Vai.com for password information.

UPDATE: Steve Lukather and Scott Henderson are confirmed as two of the special guests. More to come...


Interesting article IMO. I wonder if Eddie has been or will be invited. What do you guys think?

Jesus christ on a fucking crutch. You need a second job these days to afford live music of any type. It's no wonder some of these venues are half empty.

Um, did you READ the post? It's a BENEFIT show! You know? To raise money for a sick person? Ever hear of them?

[BREW CREW]

Yep, the musicians are NOT making a dime. Just fans. That is why I hope Eddie is invited and jams with some great musicians!!!

[cam-5150]

It's a dream of mine to see Eddie jam with Satch and Vai, but somehow I doubt he'll show up at this.

[KrazyGlue]

It would be great to see Ed & Steve Lukather play together again!

He freinds with Steve, but Satriani is freinds is with Sammy (Remember PLANET US), then again he jammed with chesney. Would be a miracle if he did it, but damn itd be damn sweet miracle!

I'd bet Billy Sheehan is one of the guests.
It would be nice if Eddie plays, just getting back out there and proving you still got it would be the best way for him to let us fans know he is indeed OK.

Eddie is a very charitable person so I wouldn't be surprised, I'm not expecting him there, but just maybe.

So was '04. Somebody benefited, but it sure wasn't me at the price vs. quality ratio in San Jose.

I would have said no way, except I saw that Luke was invited...
Man, they never do it for these benefits but they should make a frickin offical DVD, sell it and make even more money for him! I'd buy it in a heartbeat with or without Eddie. How many say I?

Hey smartass: was San Jose half empty? This thread is not about YOU and your money issues with concerts. It's about the speculation that MAYBE Eddie Van Halen can get on stage with musicians that have a similar style of music and BENEFIT a sick person!

Get off your pissy price bitch fest!


Thanks,

So much love, Brew. Sorry I hijacked yet another of your speculative thread-jerks to interject my thoughts on the cost of fucking ticket prices. Jesus, some of you fuckers just get off on attacking other linkers, dontcha? Hey, if it makes you feel better about your real life, then cheers. And to answer your SJ question, it wasn't exactly bustin' at the seems, if you catch my drift.

Hey, go start a thread on ticket prices then! Show me where I started a speculative thread. I thought this may be of interest because Eddie tended to show up at benefits and it has Vai, Satch and Lukather...ya know, a few dudes that Eddie has been related to in the rock world. It also happens to hit home a bit, since it seems this guy has been diagnosed with something that my wife was a bit ago...don't worry about me though. Just worry about your wallet pal.

BTW, I thank God every day that my wife, so far, has not been diagnosed as the guy that the benefit is for! But, she feels the pain.

If you have a problem attending concerts because of ticket prices, consider other sources of entertainment...and/or 2nd occupations.
