To: My Favorite Headache
OK, I have a few beefs with this list - some major, some minor:

1) I think Eddie Van Halen and Angus and Malcom Young were reversed. In fact, I don't think Malcom would be in the top 50, if it weren't for his brother. (Hey, if I could play AC/DC in a high school garage band, then it ain't all that, musically.)

2) Joe Satriani at #77? WTF?

3) NO ERIC JOHNSON? Double WTF?!?

4) C.C. Deville ahead of Steve Vai and Ted Nugent? They'd shred Deville for breakfast, that little burnout.

5) Nigel Freakin' Tufnel is even on the list at all?!?!? Who's kidding whom here?

6) Sammy Hagar won't ever have smoke coming off his strings, but after 11 years of getting schooled by Eddie Van Halen, he deserves better than #95. The man knows his way around the frets.

7) No Rick Nielsen (Cheap Trick)?!? He ought to be on there somewhere for his guitar collection alone!!! LOL

8) There is no way that Ace Frehley & Paul Stanley - alone or together - outrank Yngwie Malmsteen. Period.

I don't think any of the 'tandem' entries should have been made. If you need a crutch to lean on, you ain't playin'.

Class dismissed!!!!!!

Re: Your number 8: The Onion once ran a picture of Malmsteen over the headline: "Yngwie Malmsteen Officially Changes Middle Name to 'F***ing'" (Original was not bleeped!)
