That's why Pearl Jam endures for me. They banged stuff out, but the instrumentalists were effing solid, no matter the mayhem they were creating.

That's why Prince Rogers Nelson is a guitar god in my book, because it's passionate and skillful at the same time without ever navelgazing.
Yeah, we're not ever going to agree on Pearl Jam. I hate them.

For me, the guy is John 5. Most of the time, you'd never know. He just plays. But then he rips off some crazy arpeggios and follows it up with some bluegrass fingerpicking and you realize the guy is a genius.
