Erotic Nightmares
Steve Vai - All Guitars
Stu Hamm - Bass
Chris Frazier - Drums
Dave Rosenthal - Keyboards
It was a hypnotic state of lust and fantasy. We were all headed for some
sort of galactical orasm when we realized that we needed physical bodies
to achieve that climax. Since we were in an etereal kind of body, that
climax was impossible, but still, the desire for fulfillment grew stronger.
The Animal
Steve - Guitars & Keyboards
Stu - Bass
Chris - Drums
"Mi lengua, mi lengua...se sale de mi boca."
When you look deep into the mirror you can see it;
The face of danger, ferocious energy, barbaric brute strength;
Savage vitality and intense vital sensuality.
That's your animal.

With liberty and justice for all.
With liberty and justice for all.

For The Love Of God

There is no religion
There is no reality or lack of reality
There is no start or finish
There is no me or you
There is only everything
And the only thing that is that everything
Is Divinity itself
And it is all for the love of God.
"Walking the fine line between Pagan and Christian."

"Now Stevie, now don't be nervous, honey, O.K.? I'm gonna go in & I'm
gonna introduce you & then you're gonna come in with your guitar & you're
gonna play that nice, nice music you were telling me about; & while you're
doing that, I'll be sitting in the back of the. We'll have such a good time,
so don't you be nervous, honey. It will relaw everybody, & we'll be so happy.
I'm gonna go n now. I'll introduce you, O.K.? HEADS UP! Now you kids you,
all of you, calm down. That's good, O.K. everyone in your own seat, that's
good. O.K., now, little Stevie Vai is going to play a composition on the
guitar. He wrote it all by himself. O.K., Stevie, bring your three friends
up, they can play with you. That Seve Vai, what a nice little boy. {I wrote
this song for all my friends. When I grow up, I'm gonna be a famous Rock
'n Roll guitar player.} Love it. EH, HE, HE, go ahead. {And this is my
whammy bar. And it's gonna be loud.} Don't you think that's a bit loud?
Boys!!! It's getting too loud! You're getting out of control, boys. Stevie,
now calm down class, calm down. Mr. Vai, you've got to turn it down...
{What did you say, you want me to turn it down? You mean down like this...}
(Boys, What happened to that nice music?) That sounds like noise Mr. Vai.
And I want it stopped! You've all got detention. {Uh, oh, here comes
trouble.} Ayy. Vai, are you outta your mind? You, guys, ya don't back off.
Ya must be crazy! I'm gonna flip-out. I'm tellin' you. If this is my
final flip-out, you guys are gonna go with me. {Ah, shut up.} Will you
two stop dancing like that. Frankie, leave that girl alone! We're not
gonna have another incident like Mildred. Come here to me me, Vai, don't
you hear me? Come here you little snit. Wait 'till I get my hands...
don't you run away. Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Vai. Knock it off! Get
off my desk! {Hey Andrea, check this out.} Oh, Stevie, you promised me
you;d play nice music; People out of control, dancin' on the desks. Playin'
with the girls. That awful noise just make people go wild. You gotta turn
that music down, Stevie, please. {I'm fearless in my heart. They will
always see that in my eyes. I am the Passion; I am the Warfare. I will never
stop...Always constant, accurate, and intense.} Mark my words, you'll never
amount to anything, Steve Vai. You'll see, you'll be a bum, in the streets.
A bum, that's it, a bum. I thought you were such a nice little boy. Ya
know what? Ya mean, ya got a mean, nasty, vicious streak. Why don't you
just quit school? Move to California with all those other bums. Go, that's
where you belong, with all those crazies out in California. Maybe you'll be
famous; {Thank you very much.} Ha! That's the funniest thing I've ever
heard. {Thank you very much.} You-famous? With that noise? Ha! I'll
see ya in jail; {Thank you very much.} Give me a break Stevie, stop it.
You'll see, mark my words.

"This is a ballad dat I wrote. It's all, it's all about peace and love and
good happiness stuff."
I was high about the trees. Everything was more vivid than I thought was
ever possible. I saw things from all sides. Then I realized that I wasn't
perceiving things through my human eyes.
Greasy Kid's Stuff

"This is 'Greasy Kid's Stuff,' mix 12, ground zero, with the melody guitars
up .3, bass up .4, kick down .5, overheads up .4, less gate on the snare,
and 3dB added at 10K on the Pultecs to the rhythm guitars. We're rolling."
"And that's not just greasy kid's stuff."

They seemed very interested in me, which I found to be quite suprising. I
stood there feeling that my presence was creating quite a crude, lackluster
aura in comparison to their majestic, crystalline ambiance.
They must have sensed that my actions and thoughts were harmless, being that
they induced a union between us.
Sisters
(Dedicated to Lillian & Pamela)

They walk through life together
With a deep and respectful understanding
They laugh and cry together with
The most complete sincerity.
Through each other's victories and defeats,
Glories and humiliations,
Euphorias and depressions, they will
Grow and evolve together.
Even in death, their hearts and souls
Will be filled, for there are futures that
Await them.
They are each other's perfection
And totality.
They are the perfect pair.
They are sisters.
Love Secrets
Steve - Whatever
"I will discover the sevrets of love."
We put our NAKED torsos skyward
Our FACES toward the earth in humiliation,
While the GODS passed over us.
SIRO
Here they come again.
Goodbye, Bye, Goodbye, See you, See ya, Bye.
This isn't just a dream.
Yes it is. It's only just a dream.
It's only a dream, dream, dream.
Dream on, dream on, little boy.
Life is just a dream.
Life is just
Passion, Passion, Warfare, Passion, Passion,
WARFARE, Passion, Passion, WARFARE,
Passion.
Secrets of love are revealed to all
In time, by God.
