Wow........is this still on the first page ??? Some of you guys crack me up. I'm 44 myself, but you guys come on here slagging the bands you grew up with and worshipped at one time. I occasionally pop in here looking for something gear related that is interesting.........instead I get multi page threads about things like Pearcy is a methhead and has always been a shitty singer, Tate is a douchebag and can no longer hit a high note, Lynch is a hack now, Sebastian's new stuff sucks, Jake is just rehashing old Ozzy riffs, etc, etc, etc........I'm not a 80's hair metal/shred fan (never was) but come on
These guys are getting old.............just like you. So is Slayer, Metallica, Zakk, VH, Maiden........all of which I have read condescending remarks about in the last week on here. So should they all take YOUR advice and admit that they suck and pack it in

I would give anything to be in some of these guys shoes and could care less about the critiques from middle age wankers sitting behind a computer screen. These threads should at least be kept in OT unless you want to haggle about something gear related like guitar tones on some of this newer music.
I think I'm done here. Too bad because this place used to be a great resource.
Thanks to all the guys out there that I have done deals with over the years.
