I haven't hurd that, I need to get that track, it sounds class.:) I have veard some of Van Halen's stuff, but I don't know any of the track names. By the way, what do you think of the mars volta? Is thier guitarist good?
i havent heard mars volta so i dunno.....
and if you have broadband or somethin you could probably download his hot licks vid cuz then you cud see him playin hot for teacher...not with van halen but at least you wud be able to see how smurfin impossible it looks to play....or you can jus download the song.....i think its kinda rare......
i like dimebag darrell alot.....i bet he coulda done so much more....same goes for becker....
Thanks man, i'll go do that now.:)
Friedman and Becker are good, but they aren't the best. And they weren't the best band ever either. Off the top of my head I can think of better guitarists, Malmsteen, Batio, Dimebag, Laiho, I can go on.Quote:

yngwie is so boring....he did start the whole virtuoso shred thing.....but he is nowhere near becker or friedman on his compositions or technique....as i said in my previous post dime was definitly 1 of the best guitarists......but you have to undersstand becker is a completely different level...
Chuck Schuldiner, Mustaine and Holmes FTW.:)
Wait, so what a guitarist wears has anything to do with their playing?Quote:

I even think Jani Liimatainen from Sonata Arctica can play better than Becker.
no way man... i jus think its funny that he wears a wig thats all....Quote:

and seriously...becker has better technique than yngwie and batio....yngwie plays really really fast so of course its gonna be a little bit messy but becker can play anythin perfect...if you have ever seen beckers hotlicks vid you will know what im talkin about...especially if you see him playin paginninis 5th....
RIP Chuck Schuldiner... :(Quote:

Enjoy.
That reminds me...ever heard of the Zakk Wylde Drinking Game? It was allegedly invented by Corey Beaulieu and Matt Heafy, the two guitarists from Trivium (but may have been going on before that). Basically, the way that game works is, you put on a Black Label Society album, and each time you hear Zakk Wylde do a pinch harmonic, you take a drink. That means you chug down a whole can or bottle of beer, or take a shot of hard liquor. And no skipping tracks or fast-forwarding; that's cheating. I intend to play this game with a few of my friends on my dad's 50th birthday.Quote:
