Their guitarist was just named best of the 20 years I think...
in a band that is, no one cares about gimps like Steve Vai

seriously?
he's been slated for years for being shit by many many other guitarists

is that the radio 6 list? it was a pile of shit. I'd have had maybe 5 of the guitarists on the list on there, the rest were there because they were average and in bands that got big.

I found the poll
Its bullshit, John Frusciante gets number one but in the entire top 40 there's no Clapton, Vai, Satriani, Santana, Van Halen, Gilmore or Page and I'm pretty sure they've all been active in the last thirty years. Its the most bullshit poll I've ever seen.
