Don't get me wrong guys, i don't dislike VH, i just think that he's over rated and i can't stand it when some guy sucks up best guitarist and keeps sucking it up when there were others that were noticably better especially Lynch at that time.I love Randy Rhodes but i liked Dave Prichard's style better and all these guys are dead now and it bums me out. Then ...there's Eddie posing with his little checkered jeans outfit with his little smile and half jump split....oh boy.....and i just saw Priest last night in Seattle and they smoked down the house so bad it was the bomb.I havn't felt energy like that in a long time and it took an old school band to bring it back.I could have stood there in the 4th row till sun up it was so kick ass.Priest has so many good songs that i have to honestly say that it is incredible.They have more quality hits then any other band period except for maybe Zeppelin.They could have played to sun-up and still had more songs to play.That out does VH by 10 miles,but i'm not trying to make this a competition,it's just that Priest is such a better band and they are uniquely defined within exquisite quality. My favorite bands are the ones who flow with galloping thunder such as Priest,ArmoredSaint,Megadeth,Wasted Years by Maiden,Neon Knights by Sabbath,Tooth and Nail by Dokken. I play lead and i'm damn good at it but i will never do tap ons ever in my life within my own style which is galloping thunder and soaring harmonic leads.VH can have the tap-on, i want nothing to do with it, but i can do them and some times i like to wip out Hot for Teacher just for fun, but to me the thunder is more serious and Eddie only brushes that once in a while.VH is in it more for the $$ not the Thunder, they are more of a pop metal band and that's not me.I am actually very picky within my taste of music which limits me to a point but i dont care because i know that nothing can take down the PainKiller not even VH......E. p.s. KK put down a lead in Sinner that lit that place on fire and i never heard VH do one like that.
