Re: Guitar players' pet peeves

Yngwie taught God how to play guitar, so really, and if God gave rock and roll to us (as KISS preached) then wasn't it really Yngwie that invented rock and roll? And since rock and roll is LIFE, didn't Yngwie create life? And if Yngwie created life, then isn't Yngwie really God? That would mean Clapton is a no-good poser.
Hey Deezer - thats a bit pots and black kettles dude!
(just pullin' yer wotnot

I'll give you my pet peeve - singers who come in a couple of bars early - or late. And then look at the rest of the band as if it's their fault when it all falls apart. Also singers (yeah - the same one) who goes leaping about the stage and knocks your elbow just as you're launching into a solo.
And that spikey string changing encounter............ ouch!

It's all good. I'm basing all of the funnin' on Yngwie off of that parody that made the rounds a while back where somebody dubbed his voiceover on a guitar lesson saying stuff like, "I'm your new God, little boys" and "I actually taught God how to play guitar" while overdubbing the guitar playing he was doing on the lesson to do very crappy playing. Hilarious stuff.
Edit: here's the video. I still laugh so hard at this.
