Four (and counting) punk arse bitches downvoted Trey Anastasio but offered no counter.

Come at me, punk arse bitches.

Who is a live performing guitar player today that is better than Trey?

Why does everyone say this when they agree with me?

I know it's hard to know when I am joking and when I am being serious, but is it that bad that people hate agreeing with me?


Probably has a lot to do with the fact the you’re a Welsher on ban bets. Your wall of text posts don’t bother me as much as they do others here.

I’m not a John Mayer fan, but he is one hell of a guitarist. Has done an incredible job replacing Jerry Garcia.

I found a loophole that allows it to be an OT topic. It's about a skillset that is used to make music, it's not specifically about music.

Buddy Guy is still alive right?

Because Clapton once said that Buddy Guy is the best guitar player alive and I am inclined to believe him.

I saw Guns n Roses in Baton Rouge in 1992. at one point the entire band except for Slash left the stage for about 20 minutes and he just played solo guitar. it was pretty awesome

Mark Knopfler, formally with Dire Straits is my nomination. Played with no guitar pick; only his thumb. Unreal.
