Mick Maverik Posted June 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 i don't really like guitar solos but i like the solos weezer play.I didn't say Guitar solos, I said solos, meaning all instruments. And I don't count playing the vocal melody on Guitar as a solo On that note I'll add:Michael Monroe (Saxaphone) / A Day Late, A Dollar Short (Hanoi Rocks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
