Joe Satriani And
Steve Vai Are
Headed To MGM On May 15
Guitar virtuosos Joe Satriani and Steve Vai are set to deliver an electrifying night of instrumental rock when they take the stage at MGM Northfield Park on May 15. Longtime friends, collaborators, and former teacher-student duo, Satriani and Vai have each carved out legendary careers defined by technical brilliance and boundary-pushing compositions. Fans can expect a masterclass in guitar performance as the duo trade solos and showcase the styles that have made them icons, from Satriani’s melodic, spacey anthems to Vai’s flamboyant, otherworldly fretwork.
​
With decades of material to draw from, the setlist promises highlights from Satriani’s catalog like “Surfing with the Alien” and “Always with Me, Always with You,” alongside Vai favorites such as “For the Love of God” and “Tender Surrender.” Beyond the music itself, the chemistry between these two six-string innovators adds an extra layer of excitement, as their mutual respect and playful rivalry often lead to unforgettable onstage moments. For guitar enthusiasts and rock fans alike, this show is more than a concert—it’s a rare chance to witness two of the greatest players in the world share one stage.
