There is a reason Yes were down by the river while they were close to "The Edge." They were ready to jump in and drown before having to hear any more of that bunk he plays. What is up with all this hype about "The Edge". If you don't know who that is, it is probably for good reason. He is that guitarist from U2 who is for some reason getting much more recognition than he should. I mean come on, what the hell kind of a name is "The Edge"; it should be reserved for a husky guy who free-solos mountains and can't help but talk in the third person. In the recent past he was featured in the rockumentary "It Might Get Loud" with Jimmy Page. What! How does an average guitar player get to bask in the glorious aura of Jimmy Page. I saw a clip where he was saying some shit about how he was the forefather of the Deluxe Memory Man. WHAT? I also digged up the 2008 Rolling Stone's greatest guitarist of All-time. #24. WAAAHHH!? Above the likes of Robert Fripp, Trey Anastasio, Pete Townshend, Neil Young, and it just goes on from there. J Mascis is not even mentioned. These guys are all legends who have inspired so many people to do great things. Someone needs to Punch him in the spleen!!
I was going to put up a video of his work here. I think that may have been for the worse.
I think if anything he deserves a nipple slice.
