Well, no one ever said that all music needs a guitar, its just the trendy instrument these days.

Its still replacable, you could choose any other kind of lead or rhythm instrument to take its place, it just produces a different sound.

Theres a lot of different and creative things that folks today could do musically, but they choose not to, and they follow the quarter centurys old guitar/bass/drums trend instead.

I only listen to you talk when I want to hear Emo performed acapella.
