to all you music fans...

...I recently heard the tunes of a fanfrickingtatsic Polish guitarist by the name of Leszek Cichonski. Trouble is, there's absolutely none of his material here in the States and it would appear that I'm the only person in the world who's heard of him.


somebody, please prove me wrong!

[Westley]

How did you hear about him?

[riptide]

completely ramdom chance, see www.cichonski.art.pl

[D+F+P=Hadouken!]

I like his guitar playing. Its good.. not really my style, but definitely HAS style. Sounds sorta like hendrix. While we're on the topic, is anyone here a yngwie malmsteen fan?

[rcmatthews]

Yngwie is good, if you like listening to people wank on their guitars aimlessly. For fast shred-like guitar playing, might I recommend Al DiMeola, John McGlaughlin, and Paco de Lucia, as well as Dream Theater.

[Westley]

Just because it's fast doesn't mean it's good. Bluegrass is good fast music. I don't know those people, but they all suck. Yngwie is good, although unpronouncable. Leszek is good. You (Censored because I promised Gav I would be good..... claws at muzzle)

You (Censored because I promised Gav I would be good..... claws at muzzle)

I commend you on making the effort to behave yourself….. I noticed the difference and was wondering what got into you lately. I guess now that you're being good I won't be taking any cheap shots at you.

Try Friday Night in San Francisco. Brilliant.

[Westley]

Oh, I take back John McGlaughlin. He's not really the uber cool shredding type though... He's kind of weird- he tunes his guitar all weird- to one chord, and then he plays scales in that chord. He's even kind of folky. He isn't the kind who you could just say: "Take it!" to. He'd be lost- he needs the music pre-planned out and everything. But the rest suck, whoever they are.

[rcmatthews]

You sir, are a moron. Paco de Lucia is quite possibly one of the greatest guitar players who has ever lived. Friday Night in San Fransisco is the most amazing display of guitar playing ever recorded. Now it is one thing if you don't like the music, but you cannot helped but be amazed at the sheer speed and technicality of the playing. If you knew anything about music, you would understand that by mentioning the Guitar Trio, I was metioning the antithesis of Yngwie Malmsteen, in a sarcastic counterpoint.

[BrianH]

You sir, are a moron.

I don't know about a 'moron', but he types way faster than he thinks. And it's clear his brain hasn't fully developed in the judgement regions.

[Westley]

My brain is perfectly developed in the judgement regions. Now I'm going to join the KKK so I can have free bedsheets! Yay! What? They do what now? Oh. Well then I'll steal their bedsheets! Yay!
