It must be because I'm also your friendly neighborhood Rabid Monkey.

You've got to be effin' kidding me.

I just saw him in Philly. That man's guitar reeks of blues. Although he can still belt out a rock 'n roll solo at will, I will agree that he has returned to his roots of the blues which has isolated some of his fans.

He is still the man. A living legend.

And he is NOT wimpy.


Those are fighting words.

Dude, I saw him in concert too, he was amazing. I'm saying, songs like "Look Into My Fathers Eyes", and "Tears in Heaven". I don't like that stuff.

As has been mentioned, I'm sure someone like Jimmy Page has probably got a little rusty in his playing. On the other hand, the first guitarist that comes to mind that would be as a fine wine is Robert Fripp. I'm sure that guy is always improving.

I think it's most deffinitly they die off eventually. Kirk Hammet is my example. Master of Puppets back in the day 2 solos in almost all the songs and they were really fast and good...newest album...I don't know that there are any solos on the entire album.

Haha, when he played "Wonderful Tonight", all sorts of couples got up and danced around. They showed them on the big screen. They even showed a couple with each others tongues down their throats.

Good stuff.
