Along with that. I've never liked nor listened to anything that Van Halen has ever played. I respect it for what it is... and I respect him as a guitarist but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

I couldn't agree with you more. Like you, I respect EVH for what he did but I am not a big fan. I thought they kinda shot their, well you know, with their first album. I don't think I've actually played it in 10 years. But I have Hendrix cranking at least once a week or so.
