None of them has bad Germanic poodle perms so Al won't be interested in them.
None wears tights either. You're wasting your time.

Oh man, you totally zinged me there
by pointing out that one technically gifted guitarist is a massive cunt who once fell into a swimming pool while carrying out a telephone interview.

Totally undermines my point about all the above artists being shit and talentless.

Totally.

I suspect that a lot of the most technically gifted guitarists are massive cunts
not sure why, but it just strikes me that Steve Vai is probably a wanker

I get the impression that Joe Satriani
has become less of a pretentious twat as time has gone on.

This is right.
I've read interviews with him from the last year or two and he seems remarkably sound.

he's certainly producing some less wanky music
some of the Chickenfoot stuff isn't too bad

That's the thing about guitarists
they need to realise that they ought to be part of a bands structure, not the entire focus of the band.

You would do well to take note.

I am so not the focus of my band
you are right though.

The focus of your band is its shit name.
Deal with it, please.

I've tried
it's not happening.

I shall compose a short essay on why they should, if you like.
It may contain expletives, though.

I'm tempted to ask you to do this for my entertainment anyway
I don't think it would work with the band though. They don't quite understand.

arguments were like
"we've got a following" - yeah, but it's only our friends and some people we know from the pub
"we've got two cds out" - they're not 'out', and they are frankly a bit shit

still didn't work. The trouble is, most of the band aren't horrible music snobs like you and I

You poor sod.

I know...

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 28 Apr 2011, 10:47, Reply)

The same applies to singers who often think of the band as their backing band.
Don't they, AXL ROSE?

Very true

Ritchie Blackmore certainly has a reputation for being "difficult."

"A little touchy"
might be the best way to describe him
(Bazongaloid, Thu 28 Apr 2011, 10:22, Reply)

'Medieval gaylord' might be slightly better.
