Assuming that dumb00footer was serious, you guys shouldn't trash what others like. Personally, I don't like their music either, but I don't hate it. Kurt Cobain was a great songwriter and brought forth a whole new style. He may not be a fantastic 'shredder', but making a new style popular is difficult.

I think BadHorsie once said that people sometimes quote their favorite ones as the best. Hell, I've been guilty of it. When stating your opinion on who is the best, are you really considering all the guitarists out there, or just the ones you like. I think it would do us a lot of good to explore some other styles than metal, even if it's just a little.

I'm not saying the guitarists posted here aren't great - just that there are others out there just as good that we've never heard of.

So at least show a little respect and try to find the good in all musicians.
