Lynch and Townsend FTW :rock:

Everything else is crap

Lynch is a shell of his former self... LOL! :D
I cry everytime I see anything recent from him... CRY... in the shower... in the fetal position.

"You were my hero!! Now you can't find a note that's in key... :(
You silly over-tanned man you... WHY!!!?!?!!!!!

"that's me in the corner...punching my carrot with vigorrrrrr"
 
That solo with bruce was a giant pile of turds! Tom cannot shred and no one here has proven me wrong. I like his dj scratch simulation but that is only a trick. The novelty quickly faded for me with this one trick pony. I like that he voices his beliefs. They do not always match mine but at least he is not afraid to speak.

in that clip though I'll say this... he's a friggin' virtuoso compared to Bruce....'The Boss'...awful song writer, awful singer, awful guitar player..talk about overrated as a musician....ugh...

/rant

Let me qualify what I'm about to say; I am not a Bruce Springsteen fan at all,...not even slightly. With the exception of a couple songs I dislike is stuff and own none of his music,....not my thing.

Saying Bruce is an "awful song writer and singer" is absurd. He's written many songs that have touched a lot of people and he's still relevant after 35+ year career. You might hate his style of music, image, etc, but there's a reason for his success. He is talented, not as a "guitar player" but as a mainstream pop rock song writer.

it's not absurd..it's my OPINION..and I'm allowed to have it =) absurd would be saying the sky isn't blue..hehe There are plenty of people who's music I don't like but I can respect them as musicians....Billy Joel...great song writer...but I don't like his music...I totally respect, say, the Beatles even though that type of music isn't my bag...

like I said to Danyeo..I don't equate commercial success with quality in any way shape or form..sometimes the two go hand in hand, but that's so not the rule...

that being said..I wno't say he's a bad PERFORMER....he goes apeshit on stage..and that's cool for sure...I just think as a musician/pop song writer...well, he's just way overhyped....that's my opinion and I'm sticking with it.. =)

The ole "I have an opinion and I'm allowed to have it" defense. Yes, it's your opinion and you can have it, but even opinions can suck on occasion.

You're right, mainstream success doesn't equate to talent, and that's never been more the truth than now with the current crop of shit littering the mainstream airwaves. I don't like Bruce's music but he can write a good pop rock song, I put Billy Joel and Bruce in a very similar category, although Billy is, IMO, a more accomplished musician. I don't think Bruce is over hyped. Over hyped artists/musicians fade out pretty quickly -- he's been around a long time and still sells out arenas.

it's not a defense....it's really just a fact of life =) and you thinking my opinion sucks is also that..an opinion....

yep..he's been around a long time and still sells out..maybe his fans suck too then? LOL....but seriously.you don't THINK he sucks...I think he does...both opinions =) In the end this just going to turn into a 'well, he still sells out arenas' vs. 'I don't care' argument...lol..to let's just agree to disagree =)

I'm sure Bruce wishes he could write a song as deep and meaningful as something like Body Talk by Ratt.

Precisely! LOL! :D
It's all turd... with good/great guitarists... I swear I can't even listen to hair metal anymore... LOL! :D
 
I like a lot of his riffs in Rage and Audioslave.

Some of his solo's are cool, but most of the time, that is the part of the song I go to the bathroom.
