Yeah, intense heavy metal guitar...
Here are some "highlights" from the shows I've seen:
# A big part of the set consists of boring covers like for
example "House Of The Rising Sun"
# Another big part of the set consists of his own more recent "heavy
metal" songs
# Plays very few of his own 60's instros and when he do it's often
short versions put together in a medley
# Uncool guitar tone because of too much sustain which makes it sound
more like heavy metal than surf
# Many songs are over 5 minutes in length
# Heavy metal sounding backing band
Does this sound familiar? Or maybe he's only like that while playing
in Europe...?
And yes, I don't like heavy metal ;-)
