ooohjhhhhhhh no you didnt !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bvwwwaaaaaahhhhhhaaaaahh hhhaaaahhhhh!!!
hold on let me compare this to bodybuilding for you
sayin morello cant be the greatesit because he lacks knowledge of the traditional "skilled techniques".... disregarding the fact that morello has came up with totally new, totally original sounds on the guitar that sound better than any sound that has ever cam fro a guitar before him, and after him.........
thats like saying ronnie cant be the greatest, because he doesnt understand biochemisty and muscle mechanics, even though he loooked more amazing thaqn any other bber ever.

tom morello = greatist..... then comes jimmy hendrix...then its tie between a whole lot of people but id say prince is up there too
Knowing biochemistry and muscle mechanics = not needed for huge muscles. Knowing a lot about that would not help Ronnie Coleman get much bigger.
Outmost knowledge of theory and ultra technique = needed to speak the entire language of music. Morello can basically speak "emorock for socialist kids" with a couple of chords. Put him in another musical sitation and he is lost.
The "new" things he came up with was basically using effects to get more sounds out of the guitar. From a playing perspective he is still a boring pentatonic wanking moron that knows some alternate picking.
To put it simply: Morello appeals to moronic teenagers
stealing money from their parents to buy coke that thinks his music is "cool". He = not a great guitarist or musician.

In all seriousness, you can not account for taste, and if you thinks Morello = the best guitarist out there, then he = the best for you.
But that still does not take away from the fact that he = not a great guitarist nor musician when it comes to the "skill" department. His cock just happens to appeal to your taste buds. He's got no technique and knows little theory. He can't play jazz, classical or nothing. He sucks. HE SUCKS! FUCKING ASSHOLE SHITBAG!!!
