ROFL.

Hey man, don't argue with guitarists. I learned that LONG AGO.

Then I tell him Billy Sheehan could outshred EVH with 4 strings, and he tells me, get this, nobody cares about bass and that it's not important. Then he continues to say he could outplay Joe Satriani with no problem. Then I told him that if it weren't for bassist his flighty, sorry gui**rist ass would be nowhere accept for floating around in space because he can't hold himself down.

Nontheless I know it's stupid to be mad, but still, come on...
So wait, you tried to convince someone that their opinion was wrong and when he didn't believe you you yell at him and compare a wank bass god to a wank guitar god.

Interesting concept.

I believe Neil Fallon is the best vocalist ever, Mark Sandman the best bassist, and Moe! from STGM is the best drummer ever.

Maybe you just haven't met the right guitarists yet. My guitarist is also my best friend, and most of the other guitarists I know are pretty level-headed. Heck, I own a couple of guitars myself. I think the majority of guitarists are pretty cool guys. Just stop hanging out at Guitar Center so much.

Ooh, heehee! Edit! I wanna too.

Yup. The guitarist I used to play with very often was a FANTASTIC bassist- I actually have him listed as one of my main influences. He knew the importance of bass, and he also would tell me to take solos, even if I hadn't planned on taking one.

I dunno, can anyone rival Jimmy Fallon's lyrics?
