I can't knock the dude's playing, but it is Winger for ****'s sake! Stewart from Beavis and Butthead rocked a Winger shirt hahaha! Another thing that really led to my dislike was hearing Reb talk much crap in several interviews about Kirk Hammett due to the video of Lars, darts, and a Winger poster in the Nothing Else Matters video - Kirk has always come across as a really laid-back person and hearing Reb trash his playing was just pathetic coming from a dude who poofed his hair-up and played on such crap as Seventeen. That and ol' Kip making the ridiculous comment " I’ll ****ing challenge those chumps to a fight any day of the week, but we could play their music with our hands tied behind our back. "

Because nobody in a band has ever said anything outlandish before (citation: John Lennon). And you do know Beavis & Butthead is a cartoon, right? They're not real people. It's not a source of information upon which to form an opinion, otherwise people might think Bugs Bunny could actually sing opera. Bands that are less popular always trash bands that are, it's been going on for decades. I recall a video where the original Metallica players trash Los Angeles by saying it "sucks"- yet how many of them LIVE in L.A. now? It's just what hungry bands do and shouldn't be part of the educated discussion of talent.
