Rock&Roll is dead, but Hip-Hop is alive and kicking.

Up yours! And BTW, my opinion hasn't changed. Ace = teacher, Eddie = student.

Your opinion=nothing.
There are a lot of Van Halen-Kiss ties, but the only similarity between the 2 guitarists is that Gene originally tried to recruit Eddie.
But don't let that stop you from posting your opinion.

Eddie is an awesome guitarist, it's just that Ace a bit better.

Ace may be better...at taking coke, ludes, what have you....
But (and I think both are great) if your hearing works and you care about the music you play, Eddie is FAR AND BEYOND a better player.
I'ver heard both men play SCREAMING hard rock, and both play classical guitar...Ace has talent, but Eddie has talent and foresight beyond most.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

for a few years.

This is a hiding time.

The rap/hip-hop thing is scary. A bunch of illiterate, uneducated thugs, who rap songs worshipping themselves, getting a whole bunch of teenagers and pre-teens thinking its cool to be an uneducated illiterate thug. We won't get into the violence and disrespect/disregard for others.

Pulled my 14 year old niece out of a crack house a couple of weeks ago. Decent family, but got into the rap thing, started hanging around the wrong people. Stopped doing any of her schoolwork, and now talks like a "gang bangin' crack 'ho". All her friends have that "attitude". I remember the "metal head losers" from when I was a kid, but they were pretty tame.


Space.

Its all the same, Metal head (dopers) & Hiphop (crackheads) back in my day 70's you had dopers dropping out of school rooms full of Rocker poster (Kiss, Arosmith,Ledzepplen and others) sniffing glue taking acid and ludes. Now we have HipHop music with crackheads uplifting gangbanging (been around for decades) now its a world wide craze. all things come and go. Rock may go the way of Jazz, so you better remaine faithful. My good old R&B has been blended with Rap and its hard to tell who whos anymore. Thank God for Neo Soul.
