You think your methods are the only way and you don't take anyone else's likes and preferences into consideration before you let something ridiculous babble off your tounge.
Not true at all. I just think that the people who treat music as an athletic competition are idiots and DO in fact listen to music for the wrong reasons.

There's nothing wrong with a little competition in music, it motivates musicians do innovate and do better.

But yeah, in the world of shred guitar, it's very much a sport. More about the showmanship than the music, kinda like modern day vaudville.

"Step right up, step right up, to see and hear the fastest guitar player IN THE WORLD."

I'm just saying people love their music just as much as you do yours. How does that make you any better? Why does it matter why they like it?

I do understand where you're coming from. You just don't like technical skill with your morning coffee and soe people do. I, on the other hand, prefer just a bit of sugar and cream.

In all seriousness, why you make not like they genres or the bands, I still stand by the fact that there is no wrong way to enjoy music. So long as you enjoy it who cares?

^ Agreed.

It's still fun to poke fun at people who are different though.

Don't get me wrong, I can enjoy complex solos and great guitar work, but not when the songwriting is based around building complicated riffs and solos for the sake of being complicated.

Well on the other side, some people have ADD and get bored with three chords indie ballads with some annoying british dude wailing out sappy lyrics for 5 minutes at a time. Some people need that constant attention grabbing action in their music. I can certainly relate to both, I'm like a roller coaster when it comes to musical moods. Sometimes I want emo and sometimes I want speed metal, it just depends.

Listening to the G3 bunch is like watching someone try to paint a picture as fast as they can, and not worrying about how the painting actually looks when it's done.

Ok G3 is overkill, why point that out. I mean they are like the radiohead of technical music.

No seriously, there are good and bad just like any other genre. So pointing out G3 is like scrounging to the bottom of the barrel. I mean it's just a bunch of has been all trying to prove they've all still got it... at the same time.
