yeah, except Urban is a guitar virtouso and writes and produces his own music, so thats what seperates him from other "pop" country acts

ok, since I don't know much about him I give you that and this, I just don't like him. Now don't get me wrong I am not saying he has no talent.

Oh and although I don't know his guitar talent. Are ya sure that "virtuoso" isn't a stretch. Cuz there really are few true virtuoso's out there.

no I did not personally attack you. If you consider what I said a personal attack I'm sorry for if I had personally attacked you it would have been more fierce. What I am asking is for all the fighting and bickering and arguing to stop in all the MUSIC threads. As I have said in several posts in this thread as well as others is there is a lack of respect for the differing opinions. IMHO this thread was started as a result of the bickering. So what if you don't like a musician and I don't?? It's not going to change my opinion and I'm not going to change yours but we can both respect each other's opinions and not be whiney crybabies about the situation.

Connie....it's a lost cause..

...Im glad I read this thread before I posted....

it's almost at the point, that everyone's likes and dislikes in music is a subject like politics and religion....and how sad is that considering it's a site that we all came to cause we shared 1 like in music.....

G/F.....do like I do....and I know it's tough, when it gets like this....just pretend the thread doesnt exsist....find the threads that are fun, or have REAL meaning to life.....you and I both know Life is to short to argue over music....

PRETTY MUCH ANYONE WHO CAN PLAY MORE THAN RYTHM GUITAR AND CAN PUT TOGETHER A HALF ASS SOLO IS CONSIDERED A GUITAR GOD THESE DAYS.I THINK PART OF THAT COMES FROM SO MANY YEARS WITH NO TALENT WINGNUTS LIKE N-SYNC WHO COULDNT PLAY ANYTHING,SO IF SOMEONE CAN EVEN PLAY AN INSTRUMENT THEY ARE MUSICAL GENIUSES.
I CAN ONLY THINK OF A FEW GUITAR VIRTUOSOS AND URBAN IS NOT ONE OF THEM

That is kinda how I feel. That is why I was curious what made him a "virtuoso". At one time Eddie Van Halen was considered one and that had to do with his classical guitar training.
