Malmsteen was incredibly loud but looked like he was having fun. The audience was quite quiet but I think they were suffering concussion from the stupendous volume, particularly when he used his bass pedals. On top of his blinding speed and articulate finger work (including his little finger), his vibrato is beautiful and his arpeggios were astonishing to me. He had vocal delay issues to begin with but these were resolved by the bass player. Filmed from the far left with a Sony HX60. Please forgive my shaky camera work. At KK's Steel Mill, Wolverhampton, 3rd November 2023.
