[Dixielandjazz] Incredible Guitar players

[Steve Barbone]

A while back I got pilloried by the jazz police for saying that some of the
Rock Guitarists are as good or better than many of the jazz guitarists.

Well, check out DragonForce, an extreme heavy metal band. You may not like
the sound . . . however check out the band philosophy and "listen" to the
guitars and to the keyboard.

Lordy, could this be defined as visceral jazz?

PS. Yes, I live in the Amish Country you've seen on TV yeaterday and today.
Just a few miles from Nickel Mines. A tragedy for a very gentle people who
enjoy OKOM when we see them in our public concerts around Lancaster County.
They stop and gently tap their feet, and the little kids shyly stare. My
farm is surrounded by Amish Farms. Very peaceful until now.
