ACDC

I think it was Jim Brewer who eloquently elaborated on the incoherency of ACDC's lyrics and now, more than ever, having downloaded "Back in Black," I wholeheartedly agreee.

I've listen to some of the craziest rappers in my time, but nothing compares to their jumble of heroin-mainlined, butchered English being spewed out a million miles per hour.

"Black is back... hit the sack... something, something, cat size, nine lives?"

WTF are these dudes saying, I mean the beat is tight, but I can't tell the difference between when they're screaming and screaming/saying words.

Aite Peace.

I once knew all the lyrics. I don't think all those are right.

Ahhh "Cat's eyes" ... It all makes sense now, Thank you :?:

You know it makes sense

AC/DC is fine if they happen to come on the radio. I'd never put on a CD of theirs with the intention of listening to them, though.

It takes ten times more talent to bust a good rhyme then scream at the top of your lungs.

Not to mention that Angus Young of ACDC is one of the most talented rock musicians ever to pick up a guitar. Sometimes talent can be found in skill with an instrument not just bustin a rhyme...

Back in Black is a classic album/CD... I drop it in frequently when I'm on the road driving.

And it takes a million times more talent to play an instrument with any degree of skill than "bust a rhyme".

I saw AC/DC in concert, and it was awesome.

Then again I also saw Gwar...

AC/DC was the first rock concert i ever went to, so far none have compared to theirs, it was supposed to be an hour and a half long, ended up 3 hours, was totally awsome

AC/DC rules. No debate allowed.

And it takes a million times more talent to play an instrument with any degree of skill than "bust a rhyme".

I wholeheartedly agree, which is why it would be nice to have a say, guitarist, who is up to par with one of the many DJ's who have taken years to master their mixing abilities.

P.S. Let's just all agree that guitar > bass.

Wow your feelings of them match mine 100%.

I really like listening to Shook Me All Night Long or Back in Black or whatever song it might be, but I really only like it when it comes on the radio while driving.

I have an ACDC cd I got for a birthday present and whenever I go to put in a new cd I just look at it and pass. There's something that makes ACDC better when it just comes on, one song, and done.

Any altercations with the Gwar monster? I always wanted to get eaten by that thing, but then I'd have to go to an actual Gwar concert so never happened.

LOLOLOLOZOLZ :lol::lol::lol::lol:

(in no particular order)
Stevie Ray Vaugh
Eddie Van Halen
David Gilmore
Angus Young
Joe Walsh
Jimmie Hendrix

I know there are more but thats just a few off the top of my head. Some of these guys have been rocking the guitar since before a mixing board was invented... In my opinion there is no comparison, both are talented in their own regards... I just think alot more goes into mastering licks on a Fender.

Heh. The comment was made for effect as it cleverly worked as intended. We all know Hendrix was the pwn.

Anyway, comparisons aren't likely since scratching successfully will always be more of an art-form than shredding a few hot licks. :duck:

I do like listening to a quality mix though, especially on the rare occasion that I hit a club... so dont think I'm against all DJ's... :up:
