I love both BOO and VoM.

@YouGetALifetime LOL When the vid was first posted Marc explained the situation in a comment. Guitar set up- intonation, string height etc. It takes a lot more than a minute to set up a guitar, especially with a floating bridge. That was the only guitar not packed into their trailer. I've been going to vom shows since 2006. He plays his riffs. Records and loops live. Facts. Looks like this unable to play riffs live thing is only fairly known in the behind-computer-screen world.

Marc Okubo, Tosin Abasi, Morgan Wright, and the lead singer from Oceano should all make a band together.

Thierry Henry?

@vanderhc3 You're wrong. He had no time to prepare and that guitar wasn't set up.

I guess you were there to see that. Getting a good tone and gain/distortion takes like a minute.

I suggest you go to a vom show and tell him yourself that he can't play his own riffs.

Why would I do that? Has no point. It would be like going to a Dragonforce show and tell them they can play their solos for shit. Its fairly known they cant. Same goes to this guy and his riffing.

@YouGetALifetime You're wrong. He had no time to prepare and that guitar wasn't set up. I suggest you go to a vom show and tell him yourself that he can't play his own riffs. Maybe you can also show him how to operate his loop station that he programs LIVE on stage. You're fake and in absolutely no position to degrade a true creator and guitar player. Now go listen to their song "Punisher".

@EliPorterMahn Mad? lulz...I made a simple question, cant really sense any type of bitterness or discomfort in it. Please try harder. I dont see why I would be mad about it. Just stating the fact that he cant play his own riffs live. Im just one of the 90% of the people that share the same opinion about his playing. Go thru the comments, its fairly clear most people thinks the same.
