I just noticed on guitar geek there is a Top 100 rigs by clicks. I thought it was funny that Dave Grohl...the drummer for (in the words of Zakk Wylde) ****vana...is number 1 with the most hits.

thats funny, wylde said he supported the grunge movement in that quote on your sig... why would he call them '****vana'? hell i dont even listen to nirvana but you have to have a certain degree of a respect for a band that ruled the world at one point in time.

Yah well I'd take anything Wylde says with a grain of salt.
I mean who really gives a **** what a loud mouth drunken hillbilly thinks about "some ***** ass faggot who dont never play no ****in' solos"
Grohl is an undeniably talented person.
But still I have to say I'd be happier to see Kevin Shields or someone like that at the top of the list.

anyone who can't complete a sentance without swearing or complete a guitar solo without a squealing harmonic i don't really have a very high opinion of
Squealing harmonic eh? ahahah. I spose they're a little bit like swear words, overuse seems crude. :)
I don't care how many of you think grohl is a good guitar player and singer, he's still a better drummer. ;)

Zakkkkk Wylde's parents were cousins
zakk and phil anselmo are very similar in that they are capable of creating great music when not too wrapped up in their public personas.

I never called him a hillbilly. Although I have been known to refer to him as a red-neck, trailer-park, white-tresh inbread hick piece of sh*t. But hey, thats just my opinion.

Zakk Wylde is a person that I would never take advice from. Just like The Allman Brothers or Derek Trucks... or Eric Clapton. They are just those kind of people who say stuff like "Blues is the greatest music, and there will never be anything better" and "If you don't have music with balls, then your'e a talentless *****". It's cool that they do what they do, but they aren't going anywhere other than where they currently are. People like Bowie are who I respect... always changing their sound and welcoming changes in music.
Needless to say, I don't care what Zakk Wylde has to say about Nirvana or music in general, because in ten years I'll pick up a Zakk Wylde album and I'll still hear big chunky Les Paul riffs, a JCM 800 and far too many pinch harmonics. Now thats not a bad thing, but it's just the same ole thing that I was bored with ten minutes into his Black Label Society CD.
And I love Derek Trucks, The Allman Brother, and to a certain extent Clapton by the way.

The same can be said of several musicians , AC/DC, YJM, Rolling Stones, etc. They all have unique sounds and at times this can be repititious.
I agree Bowie is and has allways been an innovater but would you say the same ( innovative Y/N - repetative Y/N ) about someone like the late great SRV???
I believe whats being said here revolves around opinion.
say what you like about anyone as long as it is truthful and adheres to a code of ethics while maintaining a level of respect.

i'll second that
Speaking of rednecks me and my band did a hill billy song which contains quite strong language and topics but it is said from the point of a redneck and its quite funny.
None of the views expressed in this song are mine, except the fact that I think rednecks are idiots.
Zakk Wylde is also mentioned in the song.
You can read the lyrics here...

:D ENJOY!
As for Zakk Wylde, I do respect his talent but I hate his attitude.
Dave Grohl is excellent when he writes good songs, but terrible when he writes bad ones. But overall I like the music that Dave Grohl creates. As for Nirvana, I love 'em :cool:
