Yep, shame about Max Roach. Legend.

About guitarists, what do you think of this guy?

lol, you definitely are grasping straws now, Big K. Burger: I met Yngve several times and he was never the "douchebag". That's nothing but a media-created image. Moreover, this topic is not about a person's character, but more about guitarists in general and Yngve in special.

You're nothing but a pretentious bigmouth who will do nothing but shout out the typical "HE'S GOT NO FEELING!!!1" or "JAZZ IS WHERE IT'S AT!!" with nothing to back it up. No music from you = you're owned beyond belief.
Thanks for not playing.

I've read stories of Yngwie acting like an asshole, and I can certainly understand why people think he's arrogant from the way he talks and acts sometimes. I think it's as much an image he created himself though, and he seems humbler now that he's older.

nothing to back it up? have you heard his music? my case makes itself.
oh and excuse me for not having a website, i cant upload mp3s but feel free to buy album's ive played on, fkw on hope street paris for one, but you don't like jazz, do you?

i'll also need to hear some of your music to validate your opinion

Post by **diego** » Fri Aug 17, 2007 9:05 am

I already posted 3 songs on this very website.
Moreover, I will definitely check out your playing on said CD. And again: I like to listen to different kinds of music - even Jazz (as pretentious as it is).
If you feel to do so, post your song(s) via a shared host, such as: http://rapidshare.com/ or any other. There's dozens of those services on planet Internet.

Just to sum it up a little bit: You dont like Yngwie because he's a "douchebag". Ridiculous, but it's your opinion. After being asked if you know him, you say it's common knowledge that he's a "douchebag". Which makes your point even more ridiculous. Now, you're saying: "Listen to his music!

What a douchebag!!". I fail to see a coherent logic in this trail of

's and actually, I'm more than fed up with this type of discussion.

On a personal note: It's hard to imagine you being a pro-musician. But if you are, I stand corrected; which does not make my points less valid. Oh, and of course I listened to Yngves music. I fail to see where his style makes him a "cunt" or a "douchebag".

Almost forgot:

Well, I certainly understand where these stories come from and to a certain degree they are probably true. But voicing an opinion on second-hand media-bullshit and image is not okay. At least it's not okay when you're behaving exactly the same. Just like Big K. Burger does.

Post by **Big Kahuna Burger** » Fri Aug 17, 2007 9:24 am

why can't i dislike yngwie for being a douchebag? you dislike jazz because the players are douchebags. (or at least find it "pretentious")

also, i don't really dislike him for for being a dick, i find him pretentious because he plays patterns really fast which really takes away from his real musical ability which i haven't heard but i'll take your word for it

heard of Mingus Big Band?

Well, of course you can dislike anybody but it makes you look unprofessional - badmouthing another pro because of his "image".

Now, did you check out rapidshare? It's easy to upload any mp3 there. If you want to, you can also use http://www.yousendit.com - I'll happily upload any song you send over, no problem. Just on a side-note, you truly become the o'dium of music-discussions.

Heard of them yes but I haven't heard them perform.

I did see the Sun Ra Arkestra last year (sans Sun Ra obviously). They were phenomenal. Marshall Allen, who directs them is fucking amazing. He's over 80 but he was jumping around the stage like a young man.

You're a musician but you don't want anyone to hear you play? Brilliant. Although, if the band you were so cryptically referring to is "fat kid wednesdays", congratulations on a bunch of footling free jazz clank bang parp piffle.

I guess the reason the jazzers in the thread are going on about "what you don't play" so much is that jazzers, of all people, should really learn when to shut the fuck up.

Post by **Big Kahuna Burger** » Fri Aug 17, 2007 7:41 pm

holy fuck, you actually looked up a group ive played with

trying hard enough

Post by **Geebs** » Fri Aug 17, 2007 7:46 pm

So you're not even a member? I've played with Mylo, the well known UK dance producer who has sold more records than the group you played with so I must be a much better musician than you obviously. My god you have no sack.

If your idea of musical integrity is to

at one of the few people who can be bothered to listen to you, no wonder fusion is the highly popular, world dominating artform (and not at all a running musical joke) it is today

what? you're the one who wanted to know who i played with, not me. diego wanted to hear my music to back up my dislike for yngwie which i don't understand. why do i care who you've played with or how good of a musician you are? you're just some guitar player on the internet
