Why are we all being so mean to Mike V? He's never been an ounce of wrong ever in my life. I think you all ought to think about Jesus and what he would do - He surely wouldn't be mean to Mike V.

Hmm yes, good idea.
So what would Jesus do?
Well, Jesus is laughing his ass off at Mike_V, so I guess I should, too.

let's be respectful. Rig-talk is such a breath of fresh air from HCAF. The people on here are generally cordial with one another, and we owe respect to Thump and the crew who established this site and keep it going. We should therefore conduct ourselves in a civil manner
I've learned a lot from this site and would like to see it remain a place where "friends" can have fun, learn, talk shop, and share experiences and ideas with each other.
Perhaps the best way to rid the rig-talk cancer is to keep talking gear. The trolls will get bored and go back to HCAF.

Mike, let me throw something out there..
Youve made it through an incredibley difficult thing with your recent surgery, something that has left others drooling in a wheelchair, crapping themselves whether they were aware of it or not, or worse, theyre dead, down for the dirt nap. Youre alive, you can carry on coherent conversations( for the most part :doh2: ) Your kids still have a dad and you got a great chance at walking away from all of it realtively, if not completely, unscathed.
In other words dude, youre blessed. I survived cancer 2x when they told me to get my affairs in order, survived 9/11 and lost everything except my life( almost lost that several times that day) and I cant stop thanking God everday for the opportunity to remain above ground and you know what? Its made me a better person.
It allowed me to see what was really important and what was really trivial BS... Ya think Im an asshole now? you should have seen me before all of that LOL!!!!
Take some time to think about how fortunate you are and how youve been blessed and maybe, just maybe, some of the stuff that you engage in or gets you worked up might not really be worth it at all.
Personally , I think its alot easier to get along than it is to be adversarial or confrontational and just let things slide like rain off of a freshly waxed hood...
Youve been through things that most people will never know about ; use it as a lesson and a barometer... Im not going to pretend to know what you went through but I have a good idea and I know what it did for me..
be well and take care of yourself Mike, Think about the things that really matter in life, maybe it will give you some much needed perspective...
just my .02

Welcome to orchestras, too many virtuosos and prodigies in one place, I seriously doubt Paul gilbert would impress these guys and girls, no offence meant to him!

man, haven't I met dozens of kids that have this attitude. They woodshed to Paul Gilbert's guitar instruction video series for about a year and a half...and then I see them at gigs playing the wrong scales and arps over chord changes with awful tone, no feel, absolutely no sense of vibrato, throwing 20 notes per beat at every solo...and then they think that because you (or anyone for that matter) can't (or WONT) overplay the way they do, that they are 'better'... they walk away with this most arrogant cocky smirk...they don't get any better because they don't think they need to, they think they are 'all that' and, of course their friends are there feeding into their egos too...I just ignore them, they won't last or get a serious gig.
