You listened to their good stuff then. They've gone sort of mainstream here lately. There music has been watered down with typical high school angst ridden lyrics. They've kind of sold out. The only song of theirs from a recent album that I like is My Sweet Shadow. Other than that, the only stuff of their's that I particularly like is the older stuff. Of the same vein, Dark Tranquillity and Kalmah are still rocking it out though. They haven't really sold out yet like In Flames has.
If you haven't checked out Kalmah yet, you should. Finnish melodeath, but basically the same(ish) sound of old school In Flames. But with wayyy better guitar work.

John Mayer is a hack. Once he realizes he'll never make it in the blues world he'll go back to pop tunes for 13 year girls and leave the blues to real artists.

You really think so? He is still pretty young and has years to go, I know you can't learn the blues, something that has to be put in you from the day you came flying out of your momma's VJ... but still, I think he can play... and no he will never be a stevie, but maybe he will be a clapton?... clapton has admitted to not being an open stream while playing unlike his hero stevie. prob not but who knows?

Yea I had the buddies in school that would run down the hallway saying "Were gonna go see fuc*ing IN FLAMESSSS!!!"... sad to hear they are "selling out" or "sold out" already, but if you want the money and you have kids, understandable... I believe they all have families.

Yeah Tab's great. He can't play a bad song. His soul covers are great, too. He plays an awesome version of Cooke's "Bring it on home to me."
I really wish I could see him live in LA. That'd be awesome.
And yeah I'm familiar with the human jukebox, Snooks Eaglin. He was the fucking man. I remember reading somewhere that he had a repertoire of like 2000 songs or some such number. Crazy.

They never stole. Family owned shop since 1980. Lots of famous people have come in and out of the shop at one point or another. Met tons more over the years. Nice perk.

Love Buddy Guy! I've seen him twice now, both times he tore it up. The last time I saw him (about a month ago), he played at a fair with Jimmie Vaughan, and he destroyed Vaughan. He's ten times the showman and player that JV is.
It was pretty crazy because there was this 13 year old girl that he brought out to jam with him and the band. I guess she just approached him prior to his set for an autograph, and told him she could play. He lent her one of his guitars and she played Little Willie John's "Fever" and Robert Johnson's "Cross Road Blues." I thought that was pretty impressive, you know, he caters to the crowd by bringing out a local and she did very well. That's how some good musicians like Bonamassa got started, so I thought that was great.
