¡Phoenix!
Saw him and his band mates "live" on a golf course once. We were blessed to be playing in the group behind them and kept hitting golf balls into their group. They had no defense against a foursome of big, drunk Nebraska boys other than: "Please stop doing that!"

Best day ever!

Duh, Austin
Believe it or not, keith richards is the man.

Not that he is the greatest, the fastest, the most technical, but just because he always fits the mood.

Plus, if you can play that well, under that much haze, you're great.

Listen to his album "main offender" to hear so great stuff. He's no SRV, but he hits the mood.

give _Chrome Dreams II_ a spin, it's pretty good.

personally, he could have joined Menudo and i still wouldn't care, because he created _Time Fades Away_, _On The Beach_, _Tonight's The Night_ and _Zuma_.
 
I knew that sh!thead would show up.

Oh...Vai is a rip-off artist! that's right, I said it! Every bit of his playing is taken from Satch, Ed, and Yngvie.

Paul Gilbert was good til he lost his credibility bitching about the EVH playing guitar with a drill. Gilbert won the LA guitar wars with 3 picks on a drill bit. Eddie used a drill as a pick. No contest.
Palmetterie(?) is one of the best I've heard. Very clean and passionate.
George Lynch. Wykked awesome.
Zak Wylde...one of the best solos evar!
