@CubanCheGuevara:

Oh, and CHICKEN, I take it that you don't want anyone in the audience to know that you multi-troll 24/7 under the risible pseudonyms grinchl7,Flghtwolf,TwoUselessL­egs, Magpieye, and at least ten or twenty others, in lieu of working at a job or, heaven forefend, a career.

No?

CHICKEN, care to tell the audience how you, a bloviating know-nothing on ethics, (pseudo) philosophy, literature, and music, never actually attended any university or conservatory?

No?

[MrAngemystere]

@CubanCheGuevara:

CHICKEN. Where is that essay on guitar technique and music theory you promised almost five months ago? Perhaps you would like to tell the audience how you, an uneducated, unemployed, untutored, and unhinged dimwit ran away from the challenge to back up your know-nothing bloviating bluster? No?

So, you don't want anyone to know that you ran away like a CHICKEN, as did the Eric Idle's cowardly Robin in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Don't worry, CHICKEN. Mum's the word.

@gregorypeckory that may be true or not. And your opinion of Clapton as a guitarist is if course your opinion. Jack Bruce has stated more than once that eric is a master guitarist. Do you think Ginger or Jack would have been involved in a band as important and influential as cream with an average guitarist? They formed cream because eric was the best around at the time.

[Gregorypeckory]

@nantyboy Jack Bruce once auditioned a young guitarist; Blues Saracino. When he found out Blues had never heard Cream, he gave him a listening assignment, and sent him home. He said when Blues returned in 2 days, he could play every Clapton part of Cream's entire repertoire perfectly. Many players can duplicate Clapton, and play circles around him. He is famous as one of the best, but he isn't. So he's overrated.

lol, funny, as if there is one and the best basketballer of all time....and one singer, and one writer....sheesh, some of you are a bit immature, nah babyish, silly to listen to the drivel, uhmmmmm is htre only one guitarist for everyone??? hmm nah....

[shredmaster100]

the person id say is overrated is that joe bonamassa guy ive seen him a few time and in my opinion he owes his fame to eric clapton because he took a lot of erics licks and put them into his music also srv was the best thats my opinion

[nantyboy]

@ibuprofen303 to say eric is massivley overated is a stupid thing to say. Eric changed the way the guitar was played during the 60's he is hugely influential. To say beck is a better guitarist is of course your opinion. I on the other had think that eric can make the guitar sound like no other player out there.

[ibuprofen303]

This is proably why Beck is and will always be a far superior guitarist to Clapton. He doesn't suffer from being massively overrated like Clapton. In fact he's sadly underrated.

@onnie74 how much times have you commented already? when people have to count it's too much. oh and you're being kinda racist

[MrAngemystere]

@adamtheboyfromdenmar:

Onnie74 might be Gay, but I doubt anyone in the Gay community would claim him as their own. Onnie74 is plainly illiterate. He also appears insane. He babbles wantonly, spews racist cant, and explodes in incoherent rages. True, this would indicate that onnie74 is really just another troll of the incoherent racist CaptainSpaulding and his master, CubanCheGuevara. Yet onnie74 seems a full six degrees removed from sanity versus the four degrees of the aforementioned.

@playingforbritain:

It's my deep pleasure to continue roasting this clucking no-nothing CHICKEN, "CubanCheGuevara." This squawking poultry puffs up his feathers and also trolls under the dimwit names, "Flghtwolf,""Frightwolf,""Arge­ntineExpel4Fraud," "TwoUselessLegs." He always slags Beck, Clapton, Harrison, as if CHICKEN were a musician. He isn't.

He doesn't play a note! He spent last year RUNNING AWAY from a musical challenge. But the CHICKEN roast is about to go barbeque. Watch for details.
