      @@bdamotta Stephen and Greg Kubacki (Carbomb) were the two guys I looked forward to the most. I've always respected that Stephen clearly knows how to express himself thru guitar/songwriting more than many virtuosic players I've been around myself. Greg falls on the opposite end of the spectrum as far as actual technique/intensity goes, but describes his process and skill level largely the same. Absolute breath of fresh air these days.

      Lead parts that makes sense are welcome. But the over used boring solos and shreds.. are just boring.. love Stephs style. Cos its built upon feelings.. not the typical shredder that just wants to show off technique.. high technique will never mean good music.. Steph is a talented song writer.. he's music certaily goes beyond !
