Mouse Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 Originally posted by Turnham Green:Well, he wasn't around in those days, so it's a tad silly to say he'd be more worshipped.I'd be willing to bet that Petrucci doesn't see himself in the same league as Hendrix, and going by interviews of other guitarists no one else does either! I was meaning in the aspect that rules todays world, where popular must mean better.I'd agree with the last part. On a related note Mike Portnoy doesn't seem himself better than his influences Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Scott 5FD Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 Originally posted by bryn:tom delonge into 1960 they would be far more revolutionary so he could show the world how to play power chords?or because he has taught heaps of people that with a few power chords you can form a band and play some songs.come to think of it DeLonge has been pretty revolutinary for quite alot of people...

Mouse Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 Something fairer would be Jimi Hendrix vs Robin Trower or John Petrucci vs Joe Satriani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayeth Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 Originally posted by Turnham Green:Hehe, I was meaning that I haven't read that any guitarist thinks they are better than Hendrix, he's seen as the absolute master really!Hm, who does think they are better than their influences? I dont know if this is agreeing or disagreeing, but... even if these top guitarists did think they were better than their influences, they aren't going to say so, I think you'll find they'd be quite modest about it if asked, its only really the shite guitarists that go putting down other players.

Graham Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 I doubt Townshend was the first to use a 5th chord but he was like one of the first to use it alot in pop/rock music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest highroller Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 to be honest delonge is quite a riffy guitarist and thats one of the special things about blink as a punk band if you like...they have alot of riffs which is one reason why i never understood the green day comparisons...nothing like each other at all!!
