Holy shit! This album is amazing. Cry for you, Hiroshima, Electric Gypsy. The songs are pure emotion. The tone is incredible. I guess the tone comes from his hands. The phrasing is also genius. I wish I could see this guy playing live. Anyway, another reason for playing guitar. Truly inspirational!

doesn't he soud like he plays slide on that stuff...no slide at all..pretty damn good..I would liked to seen him with Dave..he was endorsed by Yamaha Pacificas and was listed as DLR player..shortly after Jason had to bail because of LGS..poor guy.
but Nirvana came out and put the kabosh on all things awesome!!

I remember an Interview with Andy and he was so intimidated by Vai is was crazy..I think dude could hold his own these days..Vai may have lit a fire under his ass!!
well he's on his FN label, so that's cool!!!"Bill, Smoke a Bowl and Crank Van Halen I, Life is better when I do that"

Andy pisses all over vai imo-I think andy has better musical chops and tone.Steve rules with DLR but i have never liked his solo stuff or whitesnake stuff
Firkins would have ruled with DLR!yeahh bill its all whammy bar slides with country 6ths ect and capo use in some songs,i learnt a lot from watching his video countless times and the way he plays arp shapes is the way i play them(sliding into other shapes)Yeahh i was looking forward to becker on A Lil Aint Enough but he had it bad by then-wasnt the firestorm guitar orgy i was expecting(and hoping for)I can remember CC Deville was recording Flesh and Blood in the next studio and at that time he was saying DLR needed two guitarists to play his stuff(one for the fast and one for the bendy soulfull stuff!!lol)and thats why he choose to do swampthang(his piss poor acoustic instrumental on the album)as he had class and didnt have to shred 64th notes all the time
but then Richie Kotzen joined Poison and did his acoustic thang..lol..and made CC look a muppet

Yeah!
I have all of Andy's work (including danger danger, etc etc) I love it ALL! He is one of the most tasteful players ever, imo.You took too much, man. Too much. Too much.Comment

I can't listen to his solo stuff a lot because it's kinda boring, he is an awsome player but the tunes behind the solos remind me some houswives bands.
That being said, I'm a huge fan of Danger Danger, ass kicking tunes and lyrics about banging chicks, that's what I like.Last edited by Endrik; 08-10-2006, 11:44 AM."There is nothing more fearful than imagination without taste" - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Yeah. Just looked. Brad posted two videos. In the shorter one, you can hear Brad talking to his wife. They're so-so quality, but it was the first outing with a new camera.Occupy JCFComment
