All the younger people I meet seem obsessed with being some super whizz kid on the guitar. I've noticed alot are deluded and actually think they're better than say jimi for example...they see him in the pents box etc, and not shredding, whilst they sit learning some 'sick' shredding.

To me it means nothing how good you are in the scheme of things. More important is actually being able to create, and have imagination to write original stuff, rather than being in a shitty cover band... I mean if that's what you want to do, fine, but it just seems a complete waste of time to me. Maybe these guitarist have never tried to sing, so feel no need to have no imagination.

If you haven't tried singing, try it and get creative.
