Foggy G, "The Songs That Were Played," We're Only In It For The Touring

1981: Essentially performed as on YCDTOSA Volume IV, with the standard deviation coming in Frank's and Stevie's solos. While these performances are not as lengthy and chaotic as the '82 performances, Frank and Steve still frequently go head-to-head in an all out heavy metal battle.

1982: Essentially performed as on YCDTOSA Volume IV, with the standard deviation coming in both Vai's and Frank's solos. The ultimate guitar battle, with Frank and Steve going head to head in an ugly, feedback laden, metal fury. The song may be mere parody, but the guitar theatrics are the real thing.

1984: Purportedly played once- on 9/13- as the final encore, a performance I have yet to hear or receive info from anybody who has. A vaporised banana for anybody who helps? [Jon Naurin with this: Played at least twice, on 9/13 and 10/16. Essentially performed as on Them Or Us, with those little 1984 sounds we all know and have mixed feelings about. The only real difference is some added vocal arrangements in the "Hairbrush" part. The solo is rather short, and really make you miss that blue-haired guy.]

1988: Especially performed as on MAJNH- note for note- as this released version represents the only performance of this tune on this tour (from 3/19).
