  1. When I read the title of your article, I was anxious to see what killer pic you got of Y&T’s Dave Meneketti because he surely should have been on this list!

  2. Richie Kotzen was undeniably mind blowing but Luca Princiotta & Bas Maas playing for DORO were amazing! And how can you not give credit to Michael Brant playing for L.A. Guns?!?
