The first time I heard Whitesnake in 1987 I became obsessed. I loved everything about that band but after seeing them live in 1988, that's what pushed it over the top for me. I was so captivated by guitarist Adrian Vandenberg that he quickly became one of my guitar heroes. From there, I dove headfirst into the discography of his solo band Vandenberg and that just solidified his place as one of my favorite guitar players ever.
In 2024, Adrian and his new Vandenberg lineup hit the road with former Queensryche vocalist Geoff Tate for an extensive Spring tour of North America. This was his first tour of North America since the 1990 Whitesnake tour so this was a truly exciting time for me. Who would've thought that at the age of 50 I would be having a conversation with Adrian Vandenberg? Adrian is an amazing guy and much like us music dorks could talk about music all day. His passion for the Allman Brothers, classic blues, and soul music was such a great thing to hear him talk about.
Adrian was such a joy to talk to and this was without a doubt one of my absolute favorite interviews. I hope you dig it and then go check out the new Vandenberg album, Sin.
