I thought we were doing rock n’ roll, blues, pop. But yeah, if you start throwing Django in there then all rules are out. Of course if we go full...
Glad to see Mike Campbell finally mentioned. Incredible guitar player. Angus is another great pick. His brother is pretty good too.
Part of the problem back then was once a template was set, they all had to follow it or had no chance at a record deal or MTV time. So whether you...
Of course all those hair bands look super lame now, but I’ll say this. Vito Bratta was a bad ass guitar player. And Vai is Vai.
Yeah but those Asian kids and Yngwie are basically derivatives of EVH.

The great Tom Petty on the Beatles and Stones. [MEDIA]
Those are haunting images homer. Those who have seen that level of suffering understand. Unfortunately most Americans (except those who have...
Stop going in circles. You claim is a life, most disagree. You claim it’s a killing, but somehow, not a murder, although there’s clear, undeniable...
Performative nonsense is about as good a description I can think of. Just drama for the sake of it. Frankly, boring.
An abortion?
