Zakk Wylde US National Anthem video....

[SheratonBoss]

One thing hasnt been mentioned yet.....that the US anthem is one of the most boring and lamest pieces ever written, even for anthem standards (which is very very low on the musical scale), so what's this riot about Zakky "ZZ Top" boy all about?

[psychodave]

It wasn't soo bad. It would have come off better at an Ozzy concert than a hockey game.

People thought the same thing when Hendrix did it.

That's the worst post I've ever read. You have taken the proverbial cake for the crappiest post ever. Congratualtions.

Geez, I never really liked those national anthem songs but this one is particularely painful to listen:o

[izzyfender]

whats with people dissing zakk so much?? hes an amazing guitar player and no one here cant deny that. His tone is amazing, and for some reason everyone thinks hes some asshole, i knew people that met him after an ozzy show and said he was the nicest person they ever met. please dont rant about me for saying this but i liked his version of the star spangled banner

People love to whine and go on the rag about whatever rock stars choose to do. They always have.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

THAT WAS {censored}ING HORRIBLE.

Originally posted by squealie Hendrix, EVH, every arena guitar god in the 80s and Zakk understands that playing a GUITAR SOLO for non-guitar players involves posing, and making as many ridiculous noises as possible. It's for entertainment for {censored}s sake. If you want to check off a list of chord inversions, go to a {censored}ing Metheny clinic.

BUWAHAHAHAHA. {censored}in Classic. That's sig worthy:D

FWIW. SOme of you guys sound like the {censored}in A-Hole guitar snobs with your arms folded deeming other guitar players not worthy. And with the, PPFFTTT, i can do it better attitude. Like squealie said, go to a Methany show and bring your {censored}ing check list of chord inversions with you. LOL

[cloudnine]

Who cares about chord inversions - just do something interesting, for {censored}sake.

His solos are like that too.

It's also our vein jealous nature to hate those who succeed where we fail. You know, like playing guitar.

The name of the video yall were bashing on the first page where he was breaking the piano was called "in this river" not "down the river" and it was a tribute to dime. A very emotionally charged video might i add. It's hard for me to even watch. I would be ashamed if i were any of you bashing this video or song because you dont like the artist for what ever reason. A man died, and this is one way zakk coped. If you have a problem with that for whatever reason, you oughta get your head/heart checked. albeit a bit cliche' at times, thats what rock is and I'm sure that was the intent. It also had alot of imagery beyond the smashing of the piano that seemed very appropriate.

If you dont dig him, dont listen to him. Music is one of the most subjective mediums on the planet, moreso when you bring critical musicians into the equastion. If you have some idea in your head that theres some kind of static sonic point of origin that you subscribe to and use to judge others by thats {censored}ed. That POV among others are some of the very reasons music is like it is today on a bigger scale. Let people do what they do. If you dig it awesome, but if someone else identifies with it and you dont great for them too.

Why is Zakks value of charicter even in debate?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

What a {censored}ing tool Zakk is. Such a piece of trash. He didn't start playing the National Anthem until 43 seconds into the clip. Jesus. Stop {censored}ing around and showing off and play the guitar. Vai can {censored} around and showoff tastefully, this faggot can't. Douchebag.

no one likes my version?

[danjovi]

I'm a fan of Zakk and i think he has a huge live sound being one guitarist


but yikes..

I seriously think he ruins his own playing by going over board with doing WAY too much sometimes

I think the best artists know when to dumb something down, and when to be flashy..

I'm more of a fan of a musician who plays for the song, not just adding in random stuff that will add no real value to the song.

Listen to the version he does of "America the Beautiful" off of Eternal 1919

its so beautifuly done and very simplistic. I don't think ANYONE can say it sounds bad without just having some biased hatred towards him if you think his version of America the Beautiful is crap.

I wish he would have done the same with the anthem and just added his SLIGHT touch, not the over board touch.

[Shask]

I just think its sad, because you cant even tell what song it is anymore at some points, because he goes off the meoldy so much.

Im a fan of wankery and the like, but that was a bit too much.

But dude, Zakk is a douche. Seriously.

[jmartin]

The guys is an incredible player,and Ive always liked his stuff,but that was almost embarassing. I almost felt like I was watching some 13 yr. old at Guitar Center who's gotten his mitts on a Floyd for the 1st time. Horribly ametuerish for a player of his skills and status.

[men's pants]

all that distortion just ruined it. It's his sound yeah, but jeezuz, you can't just go into church going "SATAN SATAN SATAN". Good player of the guitar (not great, just good), but I think that was just {censored}

[Random Hero]

does anybody else get the impression Zakk has made more of Dime's death than he should have, or is that me?

I mean, I know they were good friends, but, the video "In This River", the constant Dime tributes at his shows, the guitars, etc etc..

Sorry Danny but imo almost everyone at the HOM could have pulled off a better version of this and it has nothing to do with jealousy. That was sloppy, he missed so many notes it was not funny.

 

There are old Zakk solos that floor me, there is a reason the man rised about and became what he is today. That being said he is a joke now, he is just wasting his talent. This bad assed biker crap has gotten to his head and the man needs to reevaluate himself in a big way.
