[QUOTE=P13;18540151]Yeah and they're both emotionless hacks[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=adbforever;18540150]nah guthrie govan - what tosin is to djent, govan is to blues

both are virtuoso gods[/QUOTE]

guthrie govan just doesn't play blues...

yea there is a little blues in his stuff, especially the first album (which is inferior)

if you think guthrie govan plays blues then you've never listened to blues.

point being there is influence, let's argue about this for 10 pages then report me for being "such a pest"

Jesus Brent you clearly don't know how last.fm tags work....

guitar virtuosos make some of the most boring music known to man

Influences and technique

Govan’s earliest influences were Jimi Hendrix and Cream-era Eric Clapton; as such he describes himself as coming from a "[SIZE="7"][b]blues rock background"[/SIZE][/B]. [1] While he is "wary" of 1980s technique driven guitar music ("shred") he cites the imagination of Steve Vai (as well as Frank Zappa, with whom Vai played) and the passion of Yngwie Malmsteen as influences. Jazz and fusion elements are an important part of his style: he cites Joe Pass as a pivotal influence in this respect.[2]

Govan is known for his virtuoso command of the electric guitar, due to both his technical ability and proficiency in various styles. Govan’s MySpace profile lists quotes from various guitarists to this effect;[10] elsewhere, fellow virtuosos Joe Satriani and Paul Gilbert have praised Govan's playing.[11][12]

His vertical vibrato and legato shredding is influenced by Greg Howe.

I'm not gonna lie govan is actually pretty decent, most tolerable virtuoso. But his music gets stale really quick.

lmao i was sitting on the curb of the seven eleven and this dude walked up and asked me if i was homeless and i said "nah im just a drug addict" and he started telling me about how he just got out of prison

[QUOTE=P13;18540271]lol why do I think that's fake[/QUOTE]

sharpness, contrast, angle

or someone could've just printed it out and taped it on that'd be easier

if people mistake me for homeless i must be punk as fuck

mappy, don't be one of these supposed photoshop experts

[QUOTE=P13;18540291]or someone could've just printed it out and taped it on that'd be easier[/QUOTE]

a much more plausible explanation then "the shadows are wrong"

lol yeah that's fake

that would be a huge lawsuit

You don't see what I'm talking about?

that's just the shitty camera/compression

yeah I think people who try and spot photoshop fakes all the time read too much into things
