If anything, Hendrix is right up my alley. I'm for liberal musicians, and the man's technique was far from conservative. He even lived homeless for a large portion of his life to pursue his art. He even played with his teeth.
I just figured that you'd be one of those guys who thinks that he's overrated. But it's cool that you're not. Hendrix was great. Finally, something we can agree on.

I just saw Buckethead last month, I know, I already stated this. It was a great show, but the only thing I didn't like was that he was just shredding and riffing around, not putting much into it. Although it was entertaining, it wasn't very sincere or emotional. But there were a few times when he did get emotional and it was awesome. He can't match the creativity, originality or the emotion of Hendrix.

This is a little off topic, but who do you guys think is the best out of Vai, Buckethead and Satriani?

I say Buckethead.
