Buckethead vs. Jimi Hendrix

Howard the Duck · 11-14-2011, 05:32 AM

i have already stated why i hated DT and some people would tend to agree with me

most of what you said about Beatles and Jimi seem completely off-the-rocker, and even the most casual music fan would disagree with you

the tone of your posts seems to show that you're telling people to eff off for disagreeing

If you noticed I always defend my opinions but if someone is going to call me a troll then I won't waste time arguing with them.

hey, no skin off my nose, but you seem to irking a few people off here

edit :- a few examples here and there

"Lennon and McCartney don't write very good music and lyrics"

99% of the world's music fans would disagree with you - you don't get a fanbase of a few billion people if you write bad music

"Jimi doesn't play with emotion"

listen to the live version of Machine Gun on Band of Gypsys - to paraphrase Francis Ford Coppola about his own famous movie - "Machine Gun isn't about Vietnam - it IS Vietnam"

Who cares if people here agree with you? Is this a slumber party? If you go on a Metal forum and say Dream Theater is one of the worst bands of all time they will rip you apart.

What you said was an opinion that most of the population would disagree with. Does it matter? No. Because it's your opinion.

The tone of my posts? May I remind you that this is a forum. We cannot actually express our emotions with simple words. I've been pretty neutral up until Unknown Soldier again called me a troll.

What does it matter? People on this thread said Malmsteen doesn't play with emotion. There are many people who listen to his who would disagree.

You think Korn made a superb album. Most of their fans wouldn't even agree with that.

Why does it matter so much to you if people agree with you? Most people here would get into large arguments if they would share their morals, religious, political and social views. Most people here don't think the same way at all. Is music really any different?

In your eyes they are. To many people your opinion on Dream Theater is absurd.

Howard the Duck · 11-14-2011, 05:47 AM

well, to go back on your earlier "marketing" argument:-

DT was marketed to me well, all guitar mags fawn over them, but yet they bore me and they sound mediocre, why? why? why?

you can't force-feed people into liking something, you know

And when have I abandoned my argument? I can't stay on the same thread for a whole week if that's what you are expecting.

He doesn`t mean **** off in the literal sense, but in your general attitude towards others who don`t share your opinion. For example, "Its my opinion and if you don`t like it....."

You did go on a thread of someone who obviously like Dream Theater and then went on to say Korn and the Monkees were better. Frankly I don't care but don't be a hypocrite.

I only told you that. The reason I told you that is because you keep following me and calling me a troll.

Look at this thread and see how many people disagree with me. I never once told someone off till you came around.
