John 5 certainly has physical dexterity that most people can only dream of.

but the music doesn't move me.


i was impressed that he could get that sort of tones from playing above the nut.

I really hate guitar wanking.....I'll take the sloppy play of Jack White or Mike Cooley over the proficiency of Steve Vai or Buckethead every time


Right there with you Zip. I fucking hate Steve Vai, or any other guitar wanking. It does nothing, whatsoever for me.

I saw him in 1998 for the 1st time with the brothers and it was a breath of fresh air. I was so glad to see him sit in with Derek and Warren. At one point during Mt Jam, Jack laid out a line to Warren and Warren struggled to respond. Great musical moment.
