Thread: I love it when this guy goes off . . .

quite possibly the best guitar player alive . . .

(i know there are many amazing 'technical' players out there, but this guys has the "FIRE" inside, you can't learn FIRE)

Nicee he is rediculous!! But This man has gotta be my favorite.. He can just make the guitar cry its amazing to me wish I could have seen them in concert!!

Frusciante is amazing! He's been through a few 'rough spots' in his life, but it seems like he's emerged from them better than ever.

I don't need to take drugs. I feel so much more high all the time right now because of the type of momentum that a person can get going when you really dedicate yourself to something that you really love. I don't even consider doing them, they're completely silly. Between my dedication to trying to constantly be a better musician and eating my health foods and doing yoga, I feel so much more high than I did for the last few years of doing drugs.
At this point I'm the happiest person in the world. These things do not **** with me at all, and I'm so proud of that—you don't know how proud I am. It's such a beautiful thing to be able to face life, to face yourself, without hiding behind drugs; without having to have anger towards people who love you. There are people who are scared of losing stuff, but you don't lose anything for any other reason than if you just give up on yourself.

The Peppers were never the same without him!

My new favorite is Tim Reynolds. His song Betrayal on the Blu-Ray with Dave Mathews in Radio City is off the hook. IMHO! Here is a couple I found on youtube. The second clip is from the Blu-Ray but doesn't actually show the film just good quality sound. He does it all with his acoustic guitar and a wa-wa pedal; I think that is what it is called.
