    I never had a problem with what you think. you were the one who tried to push your opinion on me in the first place, thinking that I was somehow in opposition. all I did was respond by telling you that your judgement is illogical, and now you seem to be upset

    Dude she never forced anything, it was you that tried to tell her what is or isn't good. She just likes Tom Morrello and you don't, it's pretty simple to accept.

    Not to troll, but I really don't CARE that Yngwie scalloped his guitars and plays in 33/24th time in the Phyrigian to Mesopotamian modes in E flat minor - his music sounds like somebody on crystal meth falsettoing

    "bloodleloodleloodleloodleboodleoodlydoolewheeeeeeee" repeatedly and often.

    go on a file sharing program and download a video of Tom Morello playing guitar, then download a video of Yngwie Malmsteen playing guitar. you will see what I mean

    and I never said there was anything wrong with preferring Rage Against the Machine over Yngwie, but as I said, skill level is not subjective

    Now how about some clever UNDERSTATED players?

    Robert Smith for example, or Johnny Marr (sp?) from the Smiths, or the Edge of U2?

    Sometimes if you play the right five notes it's better than thirty million.

    I already know that you dont care. what you dont seem to understand is that it doesnt sound like that to me. I think it sounds beautiful

    admitedly you didnt try to force anything on me, but initially I never denied you of your opinion though you seemed to have interpreted it that way

    what you arent doing is reading my posts. I never tried to stop you from having an opinion, I simply tried to prove to you it is an ignorant opinion. heres a definition of ignorant:

    1. Lacking education or knowledge.
    2. Showing or arising from a lack of education or knowledge: an ignorant mistake.
    3. Unaware or uninformed.
    what you tried to tell me is that Tom Morello is among the most skilled guitarists, and this simply isnt true. if your attention span has held out this long, then you should understand my point by now

    Viking - you're welcome to your opinion - what it boils down to is this - what is music?

    Is it about soul or about mind-crushing technique?

    Er, let me correct my statement then. It does sound like someone screaming "dooblylooblylooblelooblebloobleloobleblooblydlooblywooooo" really fast and really loud, but some people dig it.

    MANY people think it's very fast, very clever and technically brilliant, but is like A DENTIST'S DRILL GOING INTO YOUR FOREHEAD within a few minutes.

    you still dont get it. Ill put it in a way that hopefully you will understand: where you see the mind-crushing technique, I see the soul

    what the hell is your problem??? Ya know, I would normally rip into someone like yourself but you are really not worth it...
    Read your last paragraph please and try to tell me that that wasnt trying to tell me that my opinion is wrong... And dont isult me about my attention span, that was just dumb...
    And how can you say my opinion is ignorant when I just stated my opinion on the guitarist that I put on my top ten...you sound like the ignorant one my friend.. Please stay in school...[​IMG]

    I'll say it one last time, skill level is not subjective. if you still refuse to get your head around that, then theres nothing else I can say.

    go ahead, "rip into me". Id like to see you try

    never before have I encountered anyone as hard-headed as you

    here, Ill give you one analogy. theres two guys standing in a field, one of them is Yngwie and the other is Tom Morello. Yngwie has a basketball and he throws it 100 feet, while Tom Morello throws the same basketball only 50 feet. what youre trying to tell me is that Tom Morello threw the basketball further than Yngwie, which is obviously false.

    this is my last attempt to make you see my point

    I just find it so comical that you are refusing to understand that I like how Tom plays and think hes one of the best.. I really dont know why again you have such a serious problem about it.. how about this, how about you just not post anymore about it, yeah, i think that sounds like a great idea...

    trust me, I dont have a serious problem with it. I merely said that your opinion is ignorant, and thats that. if you refuse to understand how I justify this, then its your problem

    Opinion has no right or wrong answer, doesn't matter how technical you get.

    You people have too much time on your hands to be at each other's throats and I'm the one with 23,001 posts. :p Kayla has the right to her opinions as does anyone else, so be it.

    do you get your ass kicked alot cause you sound as though you dont let anyone have their own opinion about anything and that everyone has to agree with you...
    why dont you just let me like what I like, and you like what you like without calling it ignorant.. i didnt say anything negative or really anything at all about what you like, why cause thats you not me...

    you were right about the first thing you said, but apparently you too have failed to see that this really isnt a question of opinion. there is a line between what is subjective and what is not. why is this such a difficult concept for you people to understand?
