i saw one of his solo performances, and man was it GOOD.  the man is intense.  the nightwatchman set at coachella was one of my festival highlights.

i think RATM were (and based on coachella, still are) amazing.  i can't agree with thedirector's "morello best guitarist" assertion (frusciante has him beat, among others), and as someone who plays the guitar i can't give him particularly high technical marks.  he is however one of the most original guitarists of the past few decades, and damn effective.
 
 there is no band that can do to a crowd what rage can.  and i'm not just talking a hyped-up modern-day frat-boy mob.  they were the opening band at lolla'93, and as an unknown band they tore the place up like no one else.  i've been hooked ever since.
 
 it's too bad that rage's reputation has been dragged down by their unwanted meathead following.

Thanks for letting me down easy, buddy.  (But Jimmy FUCKIN' Page said so!!!!          )  It seems I forgot about that little thing called technical proficiency.           Guitar magazine, 2000 or '01.  Some shit like that . . .

The Cribs are kind of like a UK Indie hot dog. There's a little Franz, some Monkeys, a Manic Street sheen and all of it wrapped up in a Libertines bun. But the songs are really catchy, and the band puts on a very lively, fun show.

If you think that Morello is even in the Top 50 of living rock guitarists right now, please get out a little and get educated.  Go see Chris Duarte@Rams Head Tavern in early July and see if you even remember Tom's name by the time it's over.

I think the QOTSA/Rage discussion does deserve it's own thread now.    
 I didn't understand the intitial mention of the show either. Although a slight criticism of Rage, I understood and agreed with the question: why post here -- where the heck is Alpine anyway?

"The Alpine Valley Music Theatre is a 35,300-capacity ampitheatre in East Troy, Wisconsin. The seasonal venue was built in 1977, and it features a characteristic wooden roof covering the 9,000-seat pavilion, and a sprawling lawn.The theatre is located roughly equidistant between Madison, Milwaukee, and Chicago, so draws a wide regional audience."
 
 i think it was worth mentioning because this is the kind of high-caliber show that gets people on an airplane.  i'm kinda considering it, but i try limiting myself to one concert-related plane trip per month (and i've already got lolla in august).  i'm willing to bet that QOTSA will get more than a 45-min opening set, especially if no one else is added to the bill.
