Nah, a lot of my fellow bandmates like other bands solely for the technical skill of the guitar or drums and its really retarded.

How do you mean?

Because the technical skill can sometimes be important.

He means that basing your love of music solely on technical skill alone is ridiculous. In that scenario, all you're doing is loving an equation, not the sum.

If you knew a band who was the most technically skilled garbage can players in the entire world, would they be the most musical? Would they do what good music does to you?

Music is its whole, and everything included in it.
Music is not defined ONLY by how well people play it. More than technical skill goes into creating good music.
