  1. Nuno is absolutely the BEST virtuoso guitarist I've ever seen live. I've been fortunate enough to see pretty much all of the living rock legends perform live - Van Halen, Vai, Lynch, Petrucci, Friedman, Slash, Wylde, Dimebag, Jabs, Skolnick, Malmsteen, DeMartini, Cruz, Jake E Lee, Tracii Guns, etc, and NO ONE is as fast, smooth, accurate and soulful as Nuno. We were aware of Extreme from the radio and videos, but not even casual fans. He went from not even being on our list to being the top of the list in one concert. We were just floored. He is mind-numbingly good. I told him same thing when I got to meet him in Hollywood. I'm sure he is aware of his abilities, but he was very gracious and humble and seemed genuinely complimented. Friendly and quiet. Not a very large dude either, but he's a legend in my book. If he plays near your town, I highly recommend seeing his show. Cheers!

  2.  @LavendLady  What I meant to say was no guitar player is a better combination of what I listed above. There might be more technical guitar players, or soulful or whatnot, but in my opinion Nuno has it all. Cheers!
