The words of my friend Tommy. Tommy is Canadian, which is important later on.
I say "What about geezer butler?"
"He sucks."
"The founding father of metal-bass sucks?"
"Yes."
"Cliff burton?"
"Who the hell is that?"
"Original bassist for metallica."
"Oh. I hate metallica."
"Ya right. No one HATES metallica... its just cool to. What about Rush?"
"Rush sucks."
*slap*
So, we have a canadian guy who thinks distortion and bass and rush suck.
Was i right for pimp-slapping him? |

Yes , Had it been me I woulda given him an enema (sp?) with a pitchfork. Talkin bad about Rush infront of Page is a sin.

| | | | I'd have to agree with your friend on his first point. I still don't see what's so great about Geezer Butler. He's even bending the notes out of key on the Bassically/NIB solo.
I still like Sabbath though.

| Next time you see old Tommy, give him a big old slap up side the back of the head for me.
Rush sucks? I'll bet you he doesn't like beer (don't know his age) or hockey either and probably complains when it snows. Quote: |

We the people of Talkbass community are in favor of the defendant that such pimp slapping was called for and he may go on his own cognizance as long as he agrees to visit the plaintive and give him additional public pimp slaps for one week or until the plaintive admits his own ignorance. |

The rest of it, well, what does he know about music, he's from the same country as Brian Adams

But about geddy lee- personally me and his voice don't get along. However, he can play bass with the best of them. And you should've mentioned chris squire- he is actually pretty good. Also shoulda mentioned bootsy collins for useing fuzz... because well... he's bootsy... |
