Mike Mangini with Steve Vai

Encore at The Bayou L-R: Mike Keneally, Steve Vai, Philip Bynoe and Mike Mangini

G3 Tour October 24, 1996--Capitol Ballroom, Washington, DC Vai Tour December 22, 1996--The Bayou in Georgetown, Washington, DC

The Bayou gig was the last show of the US leg of the tour--and the band's last before the Christmas holidays. Mike had Christmas lights strung on his drum kit, and the band performed the Charlie Brown Christmas song during their set. During the encore, the band members all came out wearing big hats. Mr. Mangini wore a Burger King crown. :-)
