Iron Maiden is not in the Rock and Roll HOF

[Harry Dresden]

Most blues songs bore the hell out of me. They all are basically the same progressions, with narcissistic soloing going on interminably.

Even worse than listening to it is having to play it. Every time I sit in with a band they want to do a blues song. Fuck that.

and of course no rock guitarist could be accused of this....

Good point. Lol! As if rockers are NOT narcissistic? I think pretty much all celebrities, whether they be musicians, actors, dancers, whatever, are at least a TEENSY bit narcissistic because they have to be to "perform" for the public.

Eh--- not "all". Some are definitely hopelessly infected with it but there are those in it for the art.
