Some of these "next gen" guitarists can't even do a pedalboard tap dance, they have their techs doing it for them backstage, let alone use a pair of real 100 watt tube amps and 4x12s with Vintage 30s...thats actually producing the stage volume, tone and INTERACTION with the guitar.

    its firstgrade I do play guitar and I've never felt the overcoming need to dance like a drunk completely out of sync with the music I was playing. It's just as stupid as his early fan obsession. The guys a great player, but he does some really dumb shit to try and put on more of a show and I think they always sound better in his mind than the actual execution.

    FixxxerKH202 Agreed. But it's like the feeling of being there, the live show experience. I'm not a huge fan of it really. MY favorite live show is Tool and the guitarist kinda drones. Just stares into the audience but plays killer riffs.
