he did age really well, He looks good. He's very unassuming at his concerts too.
EDIT: clapton that is.

BludgeonySteve 10-16-2004 01:10 PM

Page does look asian :amaze:

Eddie's such an old burnt out poser... and he doesn't even look asian :mad:.

He could learn a thing or two from Page :)

1. Less distorion more time spent pollishing your songs.

2. 15 minutes of wank is only good when combine with a bow and a telecaster.

3. Asians ****ing look cool! :cool:

Badmoon 10-16-2004 01:40 PM

Yeah, but Eddie is better than Page.

BludgeonySteve 10-16-2004 01:42 PM

In technical skill (just playing fast) he is. And don't start some bull**** about Eddie somehow being as a good riff and melody writter because he's not.


But eddie zwns. Who can do the splits in mid air while jumping off of an amp and playing eruption? Huh huh?

thickasabrick 10-16-2004 01:48 PM

in my opinion page is the better songwriter, and not just for guitar. his technical skills arent nearly as refined as van halens though, but thats because he spent his time writing amazing songs, instead of practicing scales.

both are awesome, but i think van halen is kinda arrogant, page is pretty nice in his interviews.

Well, I'm not talking about writing. And a guitar shouldn't have to lean back on "I'm a good riffer" as support. There's a million of um.

BludgeonySteve 10-16-2004 01:53 PM

Let's face it, Page sounds alot better.

But if you were only going on skill than sure, I agree.

thickasabrick 10-16-2004 01:55 PM

anyone ever see the interview where van halen was like...
(and im not quoting this exactly because its from memory)
"page was a good songwriter, but he plays guitar like a four year old with a broken hand"

that kinda made me mad, i wonder if page ever saw that.

Woodstock 10-16-2004 01:59 PM

Broken Arrow 10-16-2004 02:03 PM

It's not too far off though. Page was very sloppy live.

Could you send me that Live Grateful Dead album that has Wharf Rat? :)

Very early in the career he was sloppy, but toward the mid 70's he became very technical. At least, that is what I think.

He played the extended solo of Stairway pretty darn good though. :)

Not now, I don't have it loaded and it's in my brother's car.

thickasabrick 10-16-2004 02:17 PM

i think he was sloppy because he was always messed up on drugs/alcohol, plus he tried improvising all his solos or even adding new parts to his songs on the spot. he didnt just stick to the same thing. when i try to do that, it sounds a lot worse than his does. if he wanted to just play the same solo/song over and over again the same way, im sure it would sound perfect.

Broken Arrow 10-16-2004 02:18 PM

How bout sending me some Werewolves of London?

BludgeonySteve 10-16-2004 02:18 PM

[QUOTE=Paranoidd]It's not too far off though. Page was very sloppy live.[/QUOTE]

So is Eddie. I'd say Eddie's even more sloppy.
