And you would have to be skinny and have short hair and you would wear your shirts buttoned up to the collar and you would have to be REALLY humble and not drink and and and....

The cosmic question is - Was Yngwie an a-hole before he learned to play guitar or after? I'm thinking he was born that way and the guitar just excuses it. It takes a special kind of person to think, 'Hey - if I unbutton my shirt all the way, women can see my gut better.'

I actually only saw him the first time on That Metal Show and he seemed like he was on pretty good behavior. Once he strapped on that guitar though, it was over. The man is still a monster.

There was no guitar wankery in my post.

Paul McCartney played the drum solo on The End from Abbey Road.

That's one I'd never heard. On a related note, most Beatles fans will tell you he plays drums on "Back in the USSR", which is half-true.

My friend's dad still thinks Charlie Watts was the bassist and Bill Wyman was the drummer. I haven't bothered to correct him.

Dude, that's not the reason you're gay.
