Do you smell that.... It smells like sarcasm  Steven, you wish you were cool enough to listen to the blues, let alone play them.

Hahaha. Do you not understand that I'm making fun of blues and letting everybody know how stupid they are?
[size=200]FOR THE LAST FUCKING TIME, BENDING HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH PLAYING WITH EMOTION OR FEELING[/size]
Stop being stupid idiots.

So you forgot that not all blues artists bend notes and some open-shirted guitar virtuosos do?

I like how a word that means something along the lines of "master of his/her craft" suddenly became negative. Where one scale over three chords morons are gods.

I'm not saying that they aren't skilled, I'm just saying they bend notes too. And you are generalizing that people think that bending notes is a way of expressing emotion through music, when for almost all musicians playing anything is a way to do that. Besides, old blues artists pioneered non-classical non-cowboy guitar. They taught themselves their genre ( just like all those artists you enjoy so much) they just had more to work with from the start.

First, I hate the whoring of bends. On really stupid scales. Blues scales not only sound stupid, but are so simplistic and generic that it's so boring to listen to.
I recently got told by a fellow guitarist that I have no soul when I play. I asked why, and got told that I should bend more to add some emotion. It's people like that that I'm making fun of. These 'stupid idiots'.

Eh. Guitars are more than just tools to some.
Bends can be better for expressing some emotions. If you want to be a jock about it, man...

Do you not realize that there are maybe 2 people in the genre that I actually like?
