    Those are similar to your standard Gnashville-type players. Can play absolutely anything, and do so flawlessly.

    It is a strange contrast to watch incredible guitarists who bore you to death.......players come here and become studio rats.....and it sucks the soul and the fire right out of them......like digital vs. analog.

    Absolutely clean.....and laboratory sterile. You see them in the clubs, and you find it groovy that they can play so perfectly all the time. Then you realize they play so perfectly all the time it becomes absolutely predictable.

    Yaaaawwwwn.....I think I will just go home......


    Would rather see a soulful fire-breather who makes mistakes any day over some fluorescent-light-bulb-level calm and collected perfectionist.

    Kudos to those who can play.

    But unless you just do it for yourself and you never play out, you will invariably wind up playing to people.

    Are you so anti-social that you are not interested in entertaining your "audience"?

    And when you start a set with 5 people in the audience (plus one waitress), and within half an hour they are gone????

    And you consider yourself a good, solid guitar player who can play everything perfectly?

    Well....ok....more power to ya.

    Shoegazers aren't much fun.

    Fuck you, you pussy. Those are not "musicians" those are rich kids with parents who spent a fortune on lessons. They play with no soul. No wonder you you want to lick their dick spittle.

    That was well done, but they're saying rock solos reached their highest level of epicness with Slash?

    That tapping bit was WAY off...

    And I disagree with the claim that John "Superdouche" Mayer saved the guitar solo. I'd give that credit to The Darkness.
    Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

    Hell, if anyone "saved the guitar solo" over the past half a decade, Joe Bonamassa is the one.
