I'm going to say Angus and here's why. Imagine, Eddie jumps off the stack just as Angus does the curly spin. Can you say concussion? Eddie is out. Then out comes Slash. With all the hair in his eyes he too falls victim to the crazy Angus swirlings. Jimi seeing all of the carnage simply gives up, being the sweet pacifist and all. This just leaves Randy. And from a pure guitar tone perpective Angus slays Randy as Randy missteps upon his 808 tubescreamer and breakes his ankle.

Eddie. With his tone, tapping, and shredding, he would win hands down.

If they were all drinking copious amounts of Jack Daniels then Slash would win. Fact!

Maybe a healthy Eddie, but not a knocked down, concussed Eddie. For God Sake Jimi is trying to administer CPR after this..........."The humanity.......The humanity."

Measly rep points for the first person to associate this semi-quote with the actual event.

Here's the real question: in a fight between Spiderman and Peter Petrelli from Heroes, who would be the victor?








A: Peter Petrelli

IMHO the outcome of a guitar duel depends on the audience. If they were duelling in front of Van Halen fans, Eddie would win; in front of Akka dakka fans, Angus would win etc. The fans tend to get behind their heroes, except if the hero's being a prat.

And speaking of heroes, I actually watched Heroes last night, so I sorta-kinda get that Peter Petrelli joke :D

I would rather hear Slash and Jimi jam...... that would be f'n sweet. In my opinion Slash would win over any of those just because i dig his chops more than any of the other people...

I was gonna come up with some outrageously dumb, but yet somewhat humerous response to this, but why do that when this is basically the same idea as what I was gonna take a stab at. Very well done. I'd give some rep, but apparently I need to spread some around first. Darn it all! :eek:

I would have to say Jimi H. He would do something totally unexpected and everyone else would be like WTF is he doing let's all try to copy.

Something along the lines of... "Hey Eddie, so you think Eruption is pretty difficult? Well how about you play it with your man-hood!" :eek: *Jimi proceeds to play Eruption in its entirety with his gimes. *Slash, while smashed on Jack Daniels says, "Hey they looks cool." *Angus has a secret crush on Slash and decides it'd be sacrelige to turn down this chance. While Eddie oversees this madness, then decides, "Hell, it is my song, so you bet I'm gonna try!" *Moments later, the scene consists of 3 grown men in blood and tears on the ground, and 1 spiritually righteous dude tapping away while floating in what seems to be... could it be.........some sort of purple haze? Nah..he's not floating, but rather perched atop some sort of Watchtower.

Can't say I'd be surprised. :rolleyes:

Im pretty sure Petrucci's killzone owns. So there. Everyones dead.
For life is quite absurd and death's the final word, You must always face the curtain with a bow
Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.
