Did Ed feel threatened by Yngwie?

But you know what I mean, and vice-versa....:p

(At least the Bulletboys had Jimmy D'Anda, who is a monster drummer...and Marc's a good singer )

[bueno bob]

Yeah...still, it was Van Halen-esque at it's lowest common refrence point...

There were a multitude of bad Van Halen look-alike and act-alikes in the late '80's...

On the plus side, the worse the Van Halen clones got, the more records classic Van Halen sold, so it wasn't a complete toss.

(Jimmy's drumming was the best part of BulletBoys, I think...as to Marc, the guy can carry a tune, but I really resented his over the top DLRisms...)

Me: still having a discussion with the topic at hand.

You and eddie78: apparently not capable of that and just looking for fights. Also proven.

Difference? A world of...

But since neither of you two have anything even remotely useful to add to the debate (proven as well), or this website in general, I'm pleased to remind you that you can feel free to fuck off to the nearest unoccopied thread in Arielle's where you both can feel free to stroke each other off to yet another exciting ending.

Or you can come back with another half-witted, senseless, clueless, ignorant, tired "comeback" to "own" everyone here, continuing to look like a fucking dipshit with nothing better to do in life than troll.

The choice, as they say, is yours...choose wisely...

[eddie78]

The fact remains:
Dumb & Dumber (Bobby & Jhale "hottie/guitar tech/loser")
are a tiny fraction of the population that actually thinks Yngwie is as influential as EVH.

When Bob was creaming himself over Yngwie's marvelous songwriting, i almost felt a tinge of pity for his utter cluelesness.
It's like meeting your neighbor's severely retarded kid.
What can you say?

It's not his fault he was born that way.

As for Jhale...some get it, most don't.

[Matt White]

As influential?

Perhaps not...but YNGWIE is still influencing a younger generation...EVH is not......

[eddie78]

That is not true & what a ridiculous statement from a mod on a VH related site!

I work with many younger kids, college kids, and Berklee students.
These kids are huge EVH fans & so many of them had the misfortune of growing up with the Hagar stuff, yet still love Ed.

Where do you come up with your facts, Matt White?
It's like you just threw that statement out there, to ruffle some feathers.

I'll never understand just how bitter you guys are towords Edward.
The guy that wrote all your favorite songs is reduced to a drunk & Yngwie follower in your threads.

Bueno Bob & Jhale's words mean very little, but for a moderator to throw out a ridiculous, untrue statement like that is incomprehensible.

Not cool, man.

[eddie78]

...and Ed's influence will linger long after he's dead!

Do you think Led Zeppelin & Jimmy Page have ceased to influence kids today, or Hendrix?

You clowns are so judgemental.
He wrote the book from 78-84, and that catalogue of music is as relevant today as it was then.

It's like post 1985 is all you tools can remember.

When did the last Zep record come out?

I still see tons of teenaged kids attempting Page's guitar parts.

But apparently 78-84 era VH is impossible to find for the youth, only Yngwie records!

You guys make absolutely no sense.

Now now Speedie...take a deep breath...everything will be okay:p

Just because you don't accept the fact doesn't make it so.....

I work with younger people..and give guitar lessons...

EVH is forgotten by most...

The new shred dudes are keying in on YNGWIE...his sweep picking & his D&D lyrics......

the Van Haggis years + the cheesey keyboards took their toll on 'ol EVH...they remember him in the trailerparks & on the home shopping network.....

I don't know...maybe his soundtrack work on THE SEDUCTION OF GINA is influencing a new generation of SOAP OPERA fans?!?

Anywhoo...don't get yer panties in such a knot...DAVID LEE ROTH is gonna return EVH to the spotlight...

Where do you come up with yours?

I've asked you that numerous times AND YOU STILL HAVEN'T GOT AN ANSWER, do ya troll?

"I work with kids at Berklee"...let me guess, you designed the statue of liberty, pointed Gene Simmons to the right places in 1977 and sailed around the world by yourself when you were 7 years old, right?

Sell me some more bullshit, please....tell us all how important you are...

Ain't quite bright enough to see the irony in that, are you?

Jesus Christ, how fucking stupid. You really oughta go re-read this whole thread, because Jack, that's all you've done up to this point.

Pot, meet kettle!

Fuck dude, you own yourself...

First sensible thing you've said.

Are you insinuating he's not a drunk?

I never insinuated he's an "Yngwie follower".

You should really check before you spout off about shit off the cuff. People DO pay attention here. I haven't ever said Edward was a "Yngwie follower", so why don't you think before you post - and then post ACCURATELY?

It'd help you out a lot, honestly.

True, but at least they're educated and framed in a decent argument - not blanket statements regarding your own fucking opinions, which is ALL you have offered so far.

Hmmm...you know, maybe it says something about your blatant Edward Van Halen cock-gobbling that you can't see beyond ANYONE other than Edward Van Halen ca. 198?.

You assert that, in your own ridiculous words, NOBODY has done ANYTHING on guitar after Eddie, and that's PURE FUCKING STUPIDITY.

I've named you numerous examples.

Your response?



Oh noes! Just ignore the bad guy 'n' maybe he'll go away!




I'm STILL waiting for you to come up with a logical argument to ANY of mine or Jhale's. STILL waiting for you to even ATTEMPT to defend your point of view (Eddie was the last guitarist to do anything interesting ever) with anything other than opinions, blanket statements, pure bullshit or totally ignorant nonsense.

STILL.

Awww...the mods are so MEAN!



You've LOST the debate on all fronts. Now you're just looking like an ass.

[bueno bob]

Hey, stupid.

You know who this is?



Do you think he's a good guitarist?

Or does he suck shit compared to Eddie Van Halen because:

01. He doesn't wear cool clothes;
02. He doesn't party real hard and look hella-cool;
03. The world at large doesn't know who he is;
04. He doesn't have any commonly known hits;

or

05. All of the above.

Your answer is apparently "All of the Above".

This, for those who know who this guitarist is, is why you look like a fucking idiot.
