Remember the movie "Wayne's World," and the sign in the music store "NO Stairway To Heaven" ?? I put that up in my basement, not for my son, but for his friends.
In short, I am a 'geezer, I appreciate greatly that the electric break in this song is done on a Telecaster and not an LP, but it seemed to have become for all the little mini-shredders THE acoustic guitar song that shows they can play guitar. Isn't that tune passe? I will "evaluate" your playing differently, if you really need that. And if you don't know enough to turn down your amp when this old guy comes into Guitar Center with $$$ in his pocket to maybe actually buy something, yeah you are a mini-shredder. No matter how good, you are a poser. Hope you get all those chicks you were looking for.
And...strangely enough...you get almost the same thing at bluegrass camps where the "young guns" have to play a million-notes-an-hour to show how good they are. There, I am a lot more laid back. Lack of maturity. And the teachers show them that. But...
ENOUGH! I am done! Very sorry for the rant...
BUT...Pascal, play me anything and I will still be in awe. Your loyal disciple,
BIll A.
