And FWAxeIbanez, you surely took pictures of this event right? ::snip:: AKA there was tons of ASSumption on your part of the story. yeah, too bad you didn't actually read the original post, haha, all your detective work gone down the drain over piss poor reading comprehensionand those "assumptions" that came up later, are normally referred to as "Benefit of doubt"but go ahead and keep typing assumption with the ASS capitalized, every one here is in awe of your wit, trust me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah because some guy on the internet said it, it must be true... haha, its amazing the tolerance you have for your sources as opposed to someone elsesseriously tho rockstrongo, no offense meant by this, but can you prove that he was top of the class in Jazz? where did you hear this? I'm not attacking you, I would actually gain about a million times more respect for hammet if I could believe that he was the top of anything in jazz...

Members Sonnilon Posted June 13, 2006 Members Share Posted June 13, 2006 Originally posted by FWAxeIbanez So I was jammin with a friend of mine the other day when casually it came up he was related to Kirk Hammet... Its sort of distant, I guess his dad is cousins with Kirk's dad, but anyway... I told him "Not to disrespect, and I dig older metallica, but I'm not really a fan of your cousin man" and he goes "I know what you mean, I have been to his house about three times, and one time he was playing with a slacky guitar player (apparently its the equivalent of like hawaiin smooth jazz or something, lots of lush chord voicings like 9ths and 13ths) and he was lost!" I looked at him, and I said "Let me guess... pentatonics?" he looked like he had seen a ghost... hahaha, he was like "yeaaaah! I couldn't believe it! he was completely lost!!!" I was surprised at the ease of diagnosis and not surprised at the same time, it was a funny situation nonetheless But really, who gives a {censored} if he's not technically proficient with slack key Hawaiian smooth jazz, he's good at what he does, and that's really all that matters. If you take a professional bicyclist, and make him compete with professional weight lifters in a weight competition, chances are he won't be able to keep up. Everyone just wants to rip on him out of jealousy, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone just wants to rip on him out of jealousy, IMO. Thats another point of mine... see my post on Joe Pass... Joe Pass is my personal favorite guitarist, and although I don't think there are many who can compare to him, I said even he will fall flat on his face for a metal solo people think I started this to pick on kirk, when it was only ever a funny scene I wish I could have been there to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr. D Posted June 14, 2006 Members Share Posted June 14, 2006 Originally posted by Pigsinzen No, because what he said is factual. What you said is "some guy on the internet said it" I've never heard anything about Hammett attending Julliard. I recall he took some jazz courses at either USC or UCLA, but nothing about Julliard, much less "top of his class." Google turns up nothing and he doesn't appear on this notable alumni list. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juilliard#Notable_students It's amazing how personal biases affect judgment and belief.

For that piece, Flux will be joined by Kirk Hammett, the lead guitarist with the heavy-metal band Metallica, as well as Gropman, a classical guitarist.http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2005/09/07/DDGC4EIJJI14.DTLI bet he just played pentatonics.

Why is it so important to any of you for him to prove this? You don't believe the kid? So what?
