so he seriously thought metallica kicks santana and hendrixs asssssss in guitar or shall we say metal up their asses
I think IGNORANT is the most appropriate adjective. To play devils advocate, Kirk Hammett is playing in a completely different idiom. This guy was apparently a metal-head, but Darrell Abbott or Alex Skolnik blows Hammett out of the water in the metal-scene.
I love metal, and an abundance of other forms of music, but Hammett, IMHO, can't hold a candle to the creative maverick of James Marshall Hendrix. In terms of the Santana, and the Hendrix for that matter, it's like comparing apples to oranges. They are coming from very different disciplines and styles.
It's like comparing Picasso's cubist period to Jackson Pollak - it just doesn't make any sense.
CC bro! that was well said, but yes this doosh bag was clearly a racist thats why im no longer friends with him. his racist mouth almost got his asss kicked so many times. i cant stand to be around someone whos like that u know? its a sad situation cuz hes really a lost cause.
Well, CC#680, P4P. I know where you are coming from. I played in a blues band briefly that was headed by a former friend named Doug. He was a black harmonica player who could play the S*** out of his instrument, but sounded like a dying dog when he tried to sing. Guy remarked to me one time that I was too white and too Irish to play the blues. LOL And this was coming from a guy who's father was the first black physicist to break the color barrier at Brookhaven National Lab. I finished the gig, took my $110, and told him to call Buddy Guy (who I can't hold a candle to). Last time I seen him play, he was playing with this morbidly obese Italian dude...go figure.
Shame is he's a really bright guy with an amazing head. I just think that growing up in a predominately white suburb has made him a bit bitter due to some bad life experience.
hahaha maybe he just has a fetish for italian fat assssses?
