    I've worked twice with Billy and Steve twice in Vegas. They are both as down to earth and as cool as you can get... PERFECT GENTLEMEN!
    Billy even took the time at soundcheck to show me the "coolest trick ever" to play Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love! So simple, but so illusive... Steve was kind enough to meet, talk to, (genuinely carry a conversation) with this hot chic that I was with that night... Billy was kind enough to meet and hang with her for a while right before he went on stage... They're both total pros! And nice guy to boot! It's so nice when celebs remember where they came from and who put them there... Not so with Prince, I might add...
    Never stop the ROCK!
    God bless and take care...

    awesome Steve Stevens (and Billy too)
    Love this 'unplugged' version!!
    Strip out all the extras and the heart of the song still beats strong. Amazing!
