Vai's eighth studio album, "The Story of Light", was released in August 2012 as the second installment in the "Real Illusions" concept album trilogy. "The Story of Light" tour, which began on the month of the album's release, spanned 254 engagements in 52 different countries, ending in September 2014. This tour yielded the 2015 release of Vai's fourth live DVD project "Stillness in Motion", filmed in October 2012 during his "Story of Light" tour at the Club Nokia in Los Angeles. Released on April 7, the double-disc set contained a copy of the "Stillness in Motion" concert footage and a special bonus feature disc called "The Space Between the Notes". The latter is a complete chronological timeline of the "Story of Light" tour, with a video or picture representation of each show of all of the 254 engagements attended.
