who does this kid think he is?

hey..alexi isn't against Jon petrucci..hey if you read the shred guitarist columns in a few magazines before it, it said that dream theater was one of his idols...i love dream theater but hey , who is more interesting,, bodom or theater? I love bite of the misquito by jon petrucci and jordan rudess if you ever heard their solo live album..IDK, just don't think of it as trash, he's more of a upbeat guitarist that shows alittle more looser mentality but applies it musically,like look at them...they are the only band i know that will put a very childish but complicated high pitched melody to death voice and a rolling double bass drum. Alexi is judging style... not how well jon petrucci lays his guitar parts down (Dream theater is a band that sololy makes their parts individually which is rare.)....Just understand where he's coming from...its an odd point of view and he doesn't say it in the easiest manner to understand but hey, he's alexi laiho..the only really good guitarist who's enough of a douche bag(kidding around) to get drunk and fall off of a car to break his arm.lol
