Re: I love Tremonti

Tremonti is a terrific guitarist. Unfortunately, he can't write a song to save his life but oh well.

In terms of sheer musicianship, I'd have him on my top 100 list, most likely. But so many guitarists are as good or better than him, yet can still write a song. Not really his fault. You can't practice creativity. His solos are good, but not really original. They often don't really fit the song either. But he has some fantastic ones, i.e. FTR, pity for a dime, etc.

He is also pretty dang good at making cool riffs, but even there, dozens of other guitarists are just as good if not better. He is still great though. If he would just let Myles write the songs...
