I saw them in concert while I was attending ISU - I'm pretty sure my arm would fall off if I tried playing half the stuff they played.

Television? Wow. Besides you and me, I doubt many own Marquee Moon let alone having heard of Television.

I heard they're doing shows again together. I'm definitely going if they get within a couple hours drive of here.

Mark might be the best guitar player I've ever seen. I'd listened to his music for 20+ years and seeing him live finally took it to a new level.

Best ever, imo...

Starts at about 3:00 in.

Maybe this is just old school with me, but with half the bands out there, I get pretty bummed when I hear amazing parts/solos on their CDs and they don't do them live. Real talent is nailing your album solos live. Hence why DMB gets so much respect.

Those of you over 40 know what I'm talking about.

I saw this in 1989 in Cyclone/Jack Trice Stadium. They opened for the Rolling Stones when the Stones were just going Corporate.
Rocks

This is so unquestionably Jimmy Page at the end of Stairway. Zeppelin=Best Band ever. Page=best guitarist ever. 2nd best solo is Eddie Van Halen in Eruption.

Welcome to the Jungle.

Vernon Reid might be one of the most underrated rock guitarists to date. Flat out amazing.

Please tell me this is some sort of cruel joke. One of my most hated songs of all time.
