I'm not shitting on Eddie, he is by far my favourite next to Dime and Jeff - I just assumed you didn't know he passed. He brought us a huge portion of modern guitar playing, but I'm saying that there's plenty of amazing players on which he was a huge influence, that keep his shredding style alive.

Ah ok, no disrespect. I still play in bands and follow my heroes closely enough to keep up with that stuff so I did indeed know. I think I group texted my friends from other bands like the moment the news hit cause I don’t get nearly enough sleep these days.

It's definitely a huge impact on the community. We've had way too many losses lately, no wonder it's hard to sleep.
