[QUOTE=Luc214]comparing John Petrucci with other greats like Steve Vai, I've found that while Petrucci is more technical, Vai's guitar has alot of emotion. Just a tidbit I thought I'd share.

also, John could take a few lessons from Muhammed Suicmez, his sweeping is the best I've heard.[/QUOTE]

Satriani is more emotional of a player than Vai and Petrucci combined. And none of them touch Gilmour or Santana in terms of emotional playing.

Vai is the most emotional

[QUOTE=eug008]Vai is the most emotional[/QUOTE]

Haven't you learned the golden rule around here. My opinion is fact. Your opinion doesn't matter. Deal with it.




:lol: kidding of course

I think Gilmour and Santana are more emotional.

[SIZE=1]How can you quantify emotion? Personally, I think when everyone says, ____ is more emotional, they are really just saying, _____ affects me more and I like them more. I would say almost any musician is trying to express all emotions and ideas through playing, and there's no way to tell who is 'more' of something that is so subjective. imo.[/SIZE]

Never actually heard those two guys play :mad:

How do you know Petrucci's emotional expression medium isn't in his shredding?

If it was, he's pretty emotional, at times...

I laughed at the videos...

And the gayist.

Tender Surrender is the best

am i missing somethig here? or is this real?
i think it is, because he's got the CD on his computer now..downloaded it he said. i've NEVER heard about this bootleg...

i do realize however that most of the songs are from those fan club shows from 5YIALT.

but...interesting. and it's got SDV on there...and i thought they never played it live...

That's odd.

well ima mooch it off my friend once i get back home on my real computer...so :] anyways, fake or not.

That's the bootleg of the gig where they recorded the live covers for ACOS. SDV is the demo version with KM on vocals, which is also included on the Stranger than Fiction bootleg. I want to hear this too though, I always wondered if James' vocals were overdubbed or not, since he doesn't miss a single note on the album.

Yeah, that's mostly the Ronnie Scott's setlist, that's on ACOS, and random other songs, that alot of is on the 5YIAL DVD.

I'm just downloading 'The Rudess Experiment' bootleg.

Yes, it's just my opinion. To me, Gilmour and Santana play with tons of emotions. More than anybody else, imo. You make a good point and I do agree with you.

I was born in Canberra, but my family (Mum's side), is from Hobart, Lenah valley area.

I'm still in Canberra. Doing a Bachelor of Software Engineering at ANU, I want to transfer to Melbourne uni in a few years though.

Ghettoeddo: Yeah...I wouldn't mind it...I'm building my bootleg collection by leeching off people.
