Watch these and tell me how this man has no soul, emotion or whatever the hell you nitwits want to call it:
YouTube - Dream Theater - Hollow Years solo by John Petrucci
YouTube - Octavarium - solo end
As a non-guitar player or indeed a non-musician in any way shape or form "Minor Pentatonic Scale" means jack **** to me.

The link that you have provided with the wobbly camera is not the way to impress someone.

I like John Petrucci as a guitarist but to say that both Hendrix and Page are of limited ability and sloppy players live, infers that you see them as inferior guitar players.

Watching either Hendrix, Page or Blackmore etc play the guitar, is I imagine for most people, the reason why they want to learn the instrument in the first place and form a band, along with a huge desire to listen to their music as often as possible.

No, he posts elsewhere. That would be Tuneman who only trolls this thread.
